2018 Climate Scientist Cooling

In addition, ozone depletion higher up in the stratosphere has caused a cooling high up in the atmosphere. This is likely an effect of man-made climate change. Climate scientists are convinced that the world oceans have warmed down to a depth of 700 m since the 1970s because of our past emissions of greenhouse gases.

Launched in 2018, ICESat-2 aimed to determine the depth of Earth’s snow-covered ice sheets and sea ice. Snow plays an important role in regulating climate because it reflects the Sun’s energy back out into space and helps keep the planet cool. Read original article ? Download original article (pdf).

For example, Antarctica acts to cool our planet by reflecting solar radiation back to space by virtue of the brightness of its snow surface. In the ocean, 19 marine heatwaves have been recorded between 2002 and 2018. Prof Martin Siegert is an award-winning Antarctic glaciologist and climate scientist.

Student in the Department of Atmospheric Science at Colorado State University Most people remember the water cycle they learned in school: water evaporates from lakes, rivers, and the ocean, air carrying this moisture rises, cools, condenses, and forms clouds, and these clouds precipitate water back down to the surface.

Manabe’s Climate Modeling. Fortunately, Manabe recently wrote a retrospective on his early work in response to receiving the Crafoord prize in 2018. In this, he is in violent agreement with Isaac Held, his colleague at GFDL, and indeed most climate scientists. 9335-9350, 2018. That paper ( Manabe et al.,

This summer, like many of my fellow climate scientists, I’ll try to recount the facts I remember and those I’ve been disciplined enough to write down for all the reporters who work tirelessly to tell the story of how we got here and where we should go from here. What can we do to reduce climate risks? During a pandemic.

Extreme heat is not just an abstract notion: if we can’t cool our bodies enough, we’re in danger of neurological failure, organ failure and even death, with the risks highest for children and the elderly. On balance, clouds nearer the stratosphere warm us, whereas low-lying clouds tend to cool us because their greenhouse effect is smaller.
