Changes in the Seasonal Cycle of Temperature and Atmospheric Circulation
The vast majority of variability in the instrumental surface temperature record is at annual frequencies. Systematic changes in the yearly Fourier component of surface temperature have been observed since the midtwentieth century, including a shift toward earlier seasonal transitions over land. Here it is shown that the variability in the amplitude and phase of the annual cycle of surface tempe...
متن کاملThe seasonal cycle of atmospheric heating and temperature
4 The seasonal cycle of the heating of the atmosphere is divided into a component due to direct 5 solar absorption in the atmosphere, and a component due to the flux of energy from the 6 surface to the atmosphere via latent, sensible, and radiative heat fluxes. Both observations 7 and coupled climate models are analyzed. The vast majority of the seasonal heating of the 8 Northern extratropics (...
متن کاملSeasonal, Latitudinal, and Secular Variations in Temperature Trend: Evidence for Influence of Anthropogenic Sulfate
Tropospheric aerosols increase the shortwave reflectivity of the Earth-atmosphere system both by scattering light directly, in the absence of clouds, and by enhancing cloud reflectivity. The radiative forcing of climate exerted by anthropogenic sulfate aerosols, derived mainly from SO2 emitted from fossil fuel combustion, is opposite that due to anthropogenic greenhouse gases and is estimated t...
متن کاملConstraining Climate Sensitivity from the Seasonal Cycle in Surface Temperature
The estimated range of climate sensitivity has remained unchanged for decades, resulting in large uncertainties in long-term projections of future climate under increased greenhouse gas concentrations. Here the multi-thousand-member ensemble of climate model simulations from the climateprediction.net project and a neural network are used to establish a relation between climate sensitivity and t...
متن کاملProjected Changes in the Seasonal Cycle of Surface Temperature
When forced with increasing greenhouse gases, global climate models project a delay in the phase and a reduction in the amplitude of the seasonal cycle of surface temperature, expressed as later minimum and maximum annual temperatures and greater warming in winter than in summer. Most of the global mean changes come from the high latitudes, especially over the ocean. All 24 Coupled Model Interc...
