Increasing Atmospheric Poleward Energy Transport with Global Warming
Most state-of-the-art global climate models (GCMs) project an increase in atmospheric poleward energy transport with global warming; however, the amount of increase varies significantly from model to model. Using an energy balance model that diffuses moist static energy, it is shown that: (1) the increase in atmospheric moisture content causes most of the increase in transport, and (2) changes ...
متن کاملAtmospheric hypotheses’ of Earth’s global warming
Two hypotheses are presented, outlining a new cause for global warming. We propose that the crucial factor in global warming is the amount and position of water vapour through the atmosphere. The purpose of this report is to open the debate and to encourage discussion among scientists. When analyzing the mean-year trend of the Earth’s surface temperature for the past 140 years (see for Fig. 1(a...
متن کاملglobal warming and atmospheric thickness of the lower half
most scientists believe that the phenomenon of global warming occurred, however, in the case of the occurrence of this phenomenon by some environmental scientists have raised doubts. they are questioning global warming by arguing that the temperature recorded at the weather stations cannot be representative of the occurrence of the temperature rise. because with the passage of time and the incr...
متن کاملDiet, Energy, and Global Warming
The energy consumption of animaland plant-based diets and, more broadly, the range of energetic planetary footprints spanned by reasonable dietary choices are compared. It is demonstrated that the greenhouse gas emissions of various diets vary by as much as the difference between owning an average sedan versus a sport-utility vehicle under typical driving conditions. The authors conclude with a...
متن کاملIncreasing Antarctic Sea Ice under Warming Atmospheric and Oceanic Conditions
Estimates of sea ice extent based on satellite observations show an increasing Antarctic sea ice cover from 1979 to 2004 even though in situ observations show a prevailing warming trend in both the atmosphere and the ocean. This riddle is explored here using a global multicategory thickness and enthalpy distribution sea ice model coupled to an ocean model. Forced by the NCEP–NCAR reanalysis dat...
