These interactions were thought to lead to alternating decades-long intervals of warming and cooling centered in the extra-tropical North Atlantic that play out on 40-60 year timescales (hence the name). Background. any oscillation that was produced has to be internally generated.

Specifically, we found that photovoltaics can significantly warm the urban environment during the day, but typically cool the urban environment at night. Other studies, particularly modelling studies, had previously suggested a daytime cooling effect of photovoltaics. What research did you include in your study?

If people everywhere stopped burning fossil fuels tomorrow, stored heat would still continue to warm the atmosphere. Picture how a radiator heats a home. Water is heated by a boiler, and the hot water circulates through pipes and radiators in the house. The radiators warm up and heat the air in the room.

The dramatic dimming of the red supergiant star Betelgeuse in 2019–20 was caused by a cold spot on the surface of the star causing a nearby gas cloud to cool and condense into obscuring dust, according to new findings. They found that whatever instigated the dimming did indeed manifest as a cold patch in the star’s atmosphere.

For example, Antarctica acts to cool our planet by reflecting solar radiation back to space by virtue of the brightness of its snow surface. The danger is that the Antarctic sea ice is starting to behave like the Arctic, with sustained loss of ocean cover and consequent absorption of solar radiation.

Satellites, for example, are used in meteorology to track weather systems and to monitor atmospheric fronts to predict what the weather will do next. Known as ENSO, they are opposite effects of the same process and are defined as an oscillation (a variation in magnitude) between the temperature of the atmosphere and the ocean.

It was a bold claim and some researchers initially struggled to accept the implications because it meant that energy must be flowing from the “cool” 6000 K surface of the Sun into the hotter corona – seemingly in violation of thermodynamics.

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. It’s not hard to understand.
