Uncertainty in future regional sea level rise due to internal climate variability
[1] Sea level rise (SLR) is an inescapable consequence of increasing greenhouse gas concentrations, with potentially harmful effects on human populations in coastal and island regions. Observational evidence indicates that global sea level has risen in the 20th century, and climate models project an acceleration of this trend in the coming decades. Here we analyze rates of future SLR on regiona...
متن کامل“ Projecting North American Climate Over the Next 50 Years : Uncertainty due to Internal Variability ”
This study highlights the relative importance of internally-generated vs. externally-forced climate trends over the next 50 years (2010-2060) at local and regional scales over North America in two global coupled model ensembles. Both ensembles contain large numbers of integrations (17 and 40), each of which is subject to identical anthropogenic radiative forcing (e.g., greenhouse gas increase) ...
متن کاملUncertainty versus variability in upper ocean carbon flux estimates
The recent article written by Moran et al. (2003) (herein referred to as M2003) poses the question whether thorium234 (234Th) provides an accurate record of particulate organic carbon (POC) export from the upper ocean. Although there is little argument that 234Th : 238U disequilibrium can be attributed to particle flux, we agree that there are still many unknowns regarding the factors that cont...
متن کاملProbabilistic Estimates of Transient Climate Sensitivity Subject to Uncertainty in Forcing and Natural Variability
In this paper we address the impact of uncertainty on estimates of transient climate sensitivity (TCS) of the globally averaged surface temperature, including both uncertainty in past forcing and internal variability in the climate record. We provide a range of probabilistic estimates of the TCS that combine these two sources of uncertainty for various underlying assumptions about the nature of...
متن کاملInternal Variability-Generated Uncertainty in East Asian Climate Projections Estimated with 40 CCSM3 Ensembles
Regional climate projections are challenging because of large uncertainty particularly stemming from unpredictable, internal variability of the climate system. Here, we examine the internal variability-induced uncertainty in precipitation and surface air temperature (SAT) trends during 2005-2055 over East Asia based on 40 member ensemble projections of the Community Climate System Model Version...
