Quirin Schiermeier<\/a> parla delle ricerche in corso o da fare sul Ni\u00f1o, che riserva sorprese da quando si \u00e8 studiato per la prima volta negli anni ’50:<\/p>\n

But in 2014, the warming along the equator was less pronounced than in most El Ni\u00f1o years, and the westerly wind bursts did not appear as expected. By mid-year, the anticipated El Ni\u00f1o had completely vanished.\u00a0What had stopped the show, and why the Pacific warming spectacularly resurfaced 12 months later, are questions that are puzzling ocean researchers and meteorologists.<\/em> (…)
\nIn recent months, it has been keeping pace with the most powerful El Ni\u00f1os on record, and westerly wind outbreaks in early October promised to keep the warming going. As a result, forecasters are warning many parts of the globe to prepare for some wild and crazy weather over the next several months.<\/em><\/p>\n

Anche per il mese scorso. Le temperature NOAA <\/a><\/strong>di settembre fanno uscire il 2015 dal grafico<\/a> delle anomalie: +0,90 \u00b0C rispetto alla media 1901-2000, +0,19 \u00b0C rispetto a settembre 2014. E gli incendi sono out of control<\/a><\/strong>…<\/p>\n

Riserva sorprese anche la chimica degli inquinanti atmosferici in Cina, scrive Markku Kulmala<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Surprising reactions are going on above Chinese cities that do not occur in cleaner air. For example, small atmospheric molecular clusters (measuring 1\u20133 nanometres) are tens of times more concentrated in Shanghai, Nanjing and Beijing than in European cities. Secondary aerosols (containing sulfates, nitrogen compounds and organics) form more readily in Shanghai and Nanjing than existing models predicts. Unknown chemical pathways and physical processes must be occurring\u00a0<\/span>that could create new types of oxidant or change the surface properties of aerosols, limiting their ability to take up condensable vapours.<\/em><\/p>\n

Non che in casa sia meglio<\/p>\n

City dwellers spend more than 90% of their time indoors, particularly if outdoor air quality is poor.\u00a0Cooking, smoking, heating and furnishings release PM, PN, CO, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and NOx, adding to pollutants drawn in from outside. … \u00a0My colleagues and I estimate that indoor air pollution contributes almost as much as outdoor smog (which causes more than 1.3 million deaths per year) to the pollution-related death toll.<\/em><\/p>\n

Nei paper, Catherine Lovelock<\/a> del Global Change Institute australiano et al. analizzano l’accumulo di sedimenti in 27 mangrovie dell’Indo-Pacifico<\/p>\n

for 69 per cent of our study sites the current rate of sea-level rise exceeded the soil surface elevation gain. We also present a model based on our field data, which suggests that mangrove forests at sites with low tidal range and low sediment supply could be submerged as early as 2070.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cherry-picking del giorno<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sar\u00e0 la paura di un RICO<\/a>? In un com. stampa<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0di ieri, Exxon Mobil accusa gli “attivisti<\/a>” di “inganno deliberato” e di cherry picking (senti chi parla!)<\/p>\n

ExxonMobil scientists continue to research and publish findings to improve understanding of climate system science as a basis for society\u2019s response to climate change and have produced more than 50 peer-reviewed publications on topics including the global carbon cycle, detection and attribution of climate change, low carbon technologies and analysis of future scenarios for energy and climate.<\/em>
\nExxonMobil scientists have been selected by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the United Nations\u2019 most authoritative body on the subject, as authors of their past four major assessment reports, and have contributed to National Research Council boards and committees on climate change.<\/em><\/p>\n

50 papers in 30 anni – ma EM non li elenca, chiss\u00e0 che siano compresi quelli di Willie Soon et al. criticati anche nei rapporti IPCC per le stravaganze, diciamo cos\u00ec, rispetto a migliaia di articoli nei media nello stesso periodo, miranti a disinformare sulle conseguenze delle emissioni di gas serra. <\/span><\/p>\n

EM aveva promesso di non finanziare pi\u00f9 bufale nel 2006<\/strong><\/a>, e ogni anno dal 2012<\/a>\u00a0in poi…<\/p>\n

\u00a0Here\u2019s hoping some fake \u201cskeptic\u201d shows up to tell us all how this graph is cherry-picked, how dishonest it is to start with an extra-low year to make the following look extra-hot, how my stated \u201ctrend rate\u201d (calculated by least squares regression \u2014 fancy math no less!) is so uncertain it\u2019s meaningless, how short time spans can all too easily give the wrong impression.
