The_Global_Warmer Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 The Weatherbell monthly is 0.703C+ so far for January. Global ssta set another monthly all time record thanks to enso but also a record SH ssta thanks to nino but also the Indian ocean scorching. The nino is still rampaging. It dying fast was weenie hopes. The ECPAC sub surface warm pool is actually strengthening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonger Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 our subforum is filled with weenies posting about abrupt decline and la nina Probably when they thought winter would never start. Earth being 0.6 to 1.1C warmer than 1880, had nothing to do with that late start. Guys like JB have to work harder dismissing those figures, but outside of that... not many on this site care about how el nino is bumping our temps up a quarter of a degree in the short term.

donsutherland1 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 GISS Anomalies: December: +1.12°C (old record: +1.06°C, October 2015) January-December: +0.87°C (old record: +0.74°C, 2014) 2015 had five months that were ranked among the 10 months with the greatest warm anomalies, including the 3 highest. So far, the Berkeley, GISS, and RATPAC datasets have all shown that 2015 was, comfortably, the warmest year on record. The two remaining major datasets (NCDC and HadCrut) are very likely to do the same given their January-November data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 This might be a little off topic, but this (Jan 25) appears to be yet another day when the North Pole is 24C above average (43.2F above average) perhaps close to -4C (25F) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbs Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 December was a warm end to a warm year. December was much warmer than any previous December, and much warmer than any month before 2015. Likewise 2015 was much warmer than the previous record 2014. Increase vs Previous Records GISS NOAA HADCRUT Dec. vs previous record Dec. 0.34 0.27 0.31 Dec vs. any month before 2015 0.16 0.22 0.19 2015 vs previous record year 0.13 0.15 0.18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewave Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 It's interesting how much warmer the Northern Hemisphere is now than the Southern Hemisphere. The 97-98 spike was more evenly distributed throughout the two hemispheres than we are seeing through 2015. This difference could dramatically shift rainfall patterns in the tropics. http://news.berkeley.edu/2013/04/02/shifting-rainfall-patterns-in-tropics/ Rising temperature difference between hemispheres could dramatically shift rainfall patterns in tropics One often ignored consequence of global climate change is that the Northern Hemisphere is becoming warmer than the Southern Hemisphere, which could significantly alter tropical precipitation patterns, according to a new study by climatologists from the University of California, Berkeley, and the University of Washington, Seattle.

bluewave Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Wasn't this generally expected given the land surface area discrepancy? Yes. Global ocean currents have also been implicated in a recent study . http://www.climatecentral.org/news/in-global-warming-northern-hemisphere-is-outpacing-the-south-15850 According to one of the studies, by a group of researchers based at U.C. Berkeley and the University of Washington, the Northern Hemisphere has led the Southern Hemisphere in its rate of warming since about 1980, largely because the Northern Hemisphere has more land and less ocean than the Southern Hemisphere, and oceans warm relatively slowly. The second study, by researchers at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany, implicates global ocean currents as another factor contributing to the Northern Hemisphere’s warming lead. These currents transport heat away from southern waters and into the North Atlantic and North Pacific, helping to warm nearby land areas in the north even more.
