Climate and climate variability

2010
In the following we describe some basic concepts that are fundamental for understanding (marine) climate and climate variability. We begin with a brief historical review on earlier and more modern concepts of climate and subsequently define marine weather and marine climate as used throughout the remainder of this book (Section 1.2).

Climate change and climate variability has received considerable attention from the scientific community in recent decades and has led to a better understanding ofv arious climate phenomena and driving mechanisms. This increased understanding of climate has also prompted policy makers to ask two important questions: (1) How can an improved ...

Holocene climate variability

Quaternary Research, 2004
Although the dramatic climate disruptions of the last glacial period have received considerable attention, relatively little has been directed toward climate variability in the Holocene (11,500 cal yr B.P. to the present). Examination of ?50 globally distributed paleoclimate records reveals as many as six periods of significant rapid climate change ...

About Climate Variability

2000
The common interest in the question of changes in the climate of smaller or larger regions can be explained by the fact that all life on earth, especially the plant life of a region, depends on the climate to a large degree. Temperature and rain primarily have a decisive impact on plant life, each playing a slightly different role.

Natural climate variability and concepts of natural climate variability

1999
Concepts of climate variability are formulated based on two frequently used definitions. One considers climate variability as the evolution of the mean climate conditions over time, the other considers second moments or frequencydecomposed covariances (i.e.
