Global warming pause due to trade winds in the Pacific
2014-02-10 12:47:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Blue and Green: A new study has revealed that a slowdown in global warming was caused by unusual Pacific trade winds that trapped heat underwater. However, it says that once the phenomenon stops, the warming will accelerate. The study, Recent intensification of wind-driven circulation in the Pacific and the ongoing warming hiatus, which was published in Nature, suggests that a slower rate of global warming since 2001 is due to strengthening Pacific trade winds over the past two decades. These helped keep the...

Global warming pause due to Pacific winds, study finds
2014-02-10 11:27:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Telegraph: Scientists in Australia say strong winds in the Pacific are the reason for a 14-year slowdown in global warming and have warned that the warming process will soon resume. In a study that is likely to irritate climate change sceptics, the researchers concluded that unusually strong trade winds pushed hotter waters deep below the surface and raised colder waters but global warming --typically based on ocean temperatures - will soon continue. Sceptics have long pointed to the pause in warming...

Stronger Pacific trade winds linked to stable air temperatures
2014-02-09 22:44:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Sydney Morning Herald: An Australian-led research team claims to have solved one of the biggest puzzles in climate science -- why air temperatures have largely plateaued since 2001 even as greenhouse gas levels have continued to climb. While most scientists have long accepted that the Earth continues to trap extra heat with the bulk of it ending up in the oceans, they have been uncertain about the precise process slowing the rise in atmospheric temperatures and whether it will persist. The answer, says Matthew England...
