This has been known for a while, at least in the atmospheric science community, when we observe methane in the air, we find concentrations much higher than one would expect from the EPA inventories. – Daniel Jacob	Found on CNN 1 year ago
These numbers are likely higher than a lot of the numbers you are seeing from news outlets because their criteria for an atmospheric river is likely stricter and considers the impacts that they bring, there are [also] instances when an atmospheric river is primarily targeting the Pacific Northwest, but clips the far northwestern portions of California, say Del Norte County, with weak conditions. – Josh Edelson/AFP/Getty Images Hecht	Found on CNN 1 year ago
We typically refer to these successive types of atmospheric rivers as ‘AR families,’ while AR families are not all that uncommon, we don’t see them every year and the stretch of nine we had around the turn of the New Year was a more active family than we typically see. – Josh Edelson/AFP/Getty Images Hecht	Found on CNN 1 year ago
It is clear that the future of Arctic sea ice hinges to a significant degree on the strength and frequency of occurrence of [atmospheric rivers]. – Marty Ralph	Found on CNN 1 year ago
We’re still putting 162 million tons [of greenhouse gas] into it every single day and the accumulated amount is now trapping as much extra heat as would be released by 600,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth, that’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers, and the rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land, and creating the droughts, and melting the ice and raising the sea level, and causing these waves of climate refugees. – Al Gore	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
Atmospheric rivers typically form during the winter months and can occur during El Niños or La Niñas. – Marybeth Arcodia	Found on CNN 1 year ago
The question is whether or not atmospheric rivers will happen more often as the climate changes. – Julienne Stroeve	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Temperature variations may be related to seasonal changes in Neptune's atmospheric chemistry, which can alter how effectively the atmosphere cools, but random variability in weather patterns or even a response to the 11-year solar activity cycle may also have an effect. – Michael Roman	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Now, even within the year, you can have a really wet month, like we did in October -- we had a fantastic atmospheric river -- then November comes around and it's really dry. – Michael Anderson	Found on CNN 2 years ago
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration was, in essence, watching the climate projections of the past come true, the fingerprints of climate change were all over many of the billion-dollar events that hit the US this year. – Rachel Licker	Found on CNN 2 years ago
What's concerning about National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is it's yet another year in a series of years where we have both a high frequency, high cost and a large diversity of these extreme events that affect people's lives and livelihoods, over the last five years, the United States has experienced almost $ 750 billion of damages from these billion-dollar disasters, which is really off the charts. – Adam Smith	Found on CNN 2 years ago
The third most costly disaster in National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration was the Western wildfires, in excess of $ 10 billion, and with these late-year events, like what happened in Colorado, we'll probably have to up that even further in our first-quarter analysis this spring. – Adam Smith	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Warmer atmospheric temperatures, in general, will mean the freezing levels are higher than they've been in the past, but while storms vary, even without climate change and some can be extra warm, just by natural situation, it's clear the background warming should increase the [ freezing ] levels. – Marty Ralph	Found on CNN 2 years ago
We are now in recovery mode, and we still have dangerous weather ahead. We have had one more atmospheric river yesterday, what is forecast for this weekend will be storm number two and again for next week, Tuesday and Wednesday, will be storm number three in a row. – Armel Castellan	Found on CNN 2 years ago
I kind of really want us to be able to find life on something that looks not a lot like Earth, it's safe for us to say if it looks like Earth and it smells like Earth, then it's probably Earth and therefore has life. That's not adventuresome enough for me, so I would love to kick it out there and really start to look at the atmospheric chemistry and temperature of planets that are maybe a little bit bigger than Earth. – Nikole Lewis	Found on CNN 2 years ago
The interesting piece here is that the effect of daily summer temperatures on fire appears to be non-linear, meaning that each additional degree of warming has a greater influence than the last, this is in line with other work suggesting that wildfire size and severity is increasing in a non-linear fashion in response to the increasing' vapor pressure deficit' — a measure of atmospheric' thirstiness' that is directly related to both humidity and temperature. – Daniel Swain	Found on CNN 2 years ago
The research has shown that atmospheric rivers are projected to become more extreme in the future, for California, they're projected to contribute more to the overall annual precipitation. Our climate models are suggesting that atmospheric rivers will become increasingly important as the climate changes. – Julie Kalansky	Found on CNN 2 years ago
An atmospheric river marked as a category 4 or a 5 is capable of producing remarkable rainfall totals over three or more days, likely to exceed 10 % to 15 % of a typical year's precipitation in some locations. – Marty Ralph	Found on CNN 2 years ago
One such example is a cold snap, which can happen due to sudden changes in atmospheric circulation and may not be linked to climate change, texas is a good example of this ; even though parts of it experienced extreme cold weather earlier this year when air from the Arctic was pushed south, looking at the long-term change in temperature tells us that Texas is 1.5 degrees warmer on average now than it was 100 years ago. That's climate. – Tom Slater	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Although global temperatures have risen by about 1.1 degrees in the past 150 years on average, different parts of the globe have warmed at different rates due to natural variations in the climate system such as cloud cover, land cover and atmospheric circulation patterns, earth's poles have warmed faster than anywhere else, primarily due to melting ice and snow. Although Antarctica has had a cold winter this year, over the past few decades the most northerly parts of Antarctica have warmed five times faster than the global average -- that's faster than anywhere else in the Southern Hemisphere. – Tom Slater	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Daniel Rosenfeld, a professor with the Program of Atmospheric Sciences at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The capital actually has existential problems right now, already. – Daniel Rosenfeld	Found on CNN 2 years ago
We heard there was a beached killer whale so we went to go find it. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration gave permission to keep the orca wet and protected from animals until they could arrive, we were working on getting a hose and pump to work. In the meantime, we used buckets to keep the orca wet. The orca started getting more lively after we put water on it. – Aroon Melane	Found on CNN 2 years ago
We should approach these questions without preconceptions to encourage a thorough, systematized analysis of the potential national security and flight safety risks posed by unidentified aerial phenomena, whether they are the result of a foreign adversary, atmospheric or other aerial phenomena, space debris, or something else entirely. – Adam Schiff	Found on FOX News 2 years ago
As we got closer I saw a fin and realized it was a whale, some lock keepers hosing Atmospheric Administration.Garside down and it looked like the tide was going up so Atmospheric Administration.Garside could turn around. I realized that the whale might be injured as it started rolling on its side and thrashing about. – Daniel Magee	Found on CNN 3 years ago
