Deciphering the ‘SPM AR6 WG1’ code

Real Climate

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.

Opinion: How does running fare in a warming world?

A Greener Life

Unfortunately, the weather experienced in Tokyo then was not a one-off event but in line with what climate scientists predict we can expect in a warming world. When we exercise, our core temperature increases and the body needs to cool itself down. It does this by sweating as evaporation is the main mechanism of cooling down.

Using Clouds to Fight Climate Change

HumanNature

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.

Science denial is still an issue ahead of COP28

Real Climate

In an unchanging climate, the random fluctuations would lead to warming in some parts of the world and cooling in others. In a world with just random local fluctuations but no climate change, about half the weather stations would show a (more or less significant) warming, the other half a cooling. I could go on.

Manabe’s Climate Modeling. 2019 ) gives a good overview of Manabe’s particular philosophy of climate modeling which was very much focused on getting things to work, and not worrying too much about the details. Norman Philips published what is recognised as the first GCM in 1955 – he died in 2019.

Getting physical with the climate crisis

Physics World

C warming and there are clear signs of the climate chaos we’re starting to unleash. . The previous summit, held in Madrid in 2019, ended in frustration with little progress on issues such as carbon financing or sharing climate burdens between nations. Understanding cloud formation is key to improved climate models.

Ask a Scientist: ‘Danger Season’ Summers Disproportionately Harm Disadvantaged Communities

Union of Concerned Scientists

Climate scientists at the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) have dubbed the six-month stretch from May through October the “ Danger Season.” Not only has much of what climate scientists have been warning about come to pass, many of the extreme weather events the planet is now experiencing are worse than they expected. “To
