Separate names with a comma.
Don't know if this has been discussed yet, and I'm not really a fan of CARB, but for what it's worth, the current California average electric mix...
@ jayman, The actual ACES Phase 1 report to which I referred previously is available at...
jayman, upon what do you base your assertion that the new technology has done nothing to address dioxin emissions? According to a report released...
Yes, thanks. I remember this was made a training case study. To say the least, forecasting tornadoes is tricky!
@ Cyclopathic... What you're describing is a very general explanation of upper air flow. I work with, and write about, this stuff on a daily...
Less dynamic support for severe weather outbreaks. Yes, but the strength of the jet stream is driven by thermal gradients on the synoptic scale....
Severe weather occurs where thermal gradients are greatest. According to IPCC, cold air in the polar regions is warming relatively more than hot...
That's not strictly true. The 2011 MB E350 BlueTec has certified NOx emissions that hit SULEV (0.02 g/mile -...
Not sure if the last comment is directed at me, but if it is, in my opinion, it doesn't support the IPCC's premise that the poles are warming...
IPCC - Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change The "Summary for Policymakers" is a good place to start. I agree this is a possible scenario....
It's not my hypothesis that the poles are warming relatively more than the tropics, that's the findings of the IPCC. I agree that if the global...
That was from the IPCC's 2007 Report. IIRC, the poles have been observed, and are projected by climate models in future years, to have about twice...
Just to clarify my "water running downhill" analogy, since the atmosphere is a gas (mixture of gases), it expands and contracts in the vertical...
Sorry, neglected to address this question in the previous response. It's negatively correlated because again, the strength of these conditions...
The thermal gradient I'm referring to is in the horizontal - from the cold poles to the warm tropics. Of course, there's also a thermal gradient...
OK, you asked for it. ;) Like heavy snow events that are being blamed on global warming, warm and moist air is a necessary but not sufficient...
If the IPCC premise that the poles are warming relatively more than the tropics is accepted, I dispute this prediction.
In my opinion as an atmospheric scientist (meteorologist), it's unlikely that there's a correlation between the severe weather outbreaks we've...
One more point I meant to make...the pattern in the Northern Hemisphere was blocked for much of the early portion of this past winter season, with...
I've been working in the field of meteorology since the mid-1980s. Haven't noticed any differences with respect to the frequency of blocking...
