摘要: The purpose of this paper is to examine changes in the spatial variance mean monthly and daily temperatures that may have occurred during period historical records. northern hemispheric lower-tropospheric satellite-based temperature records from 1979 1996 near-surface air either 1947 or 1897 show relatively consistent temporal patterns with respect variance. Overall, anomalies has declined records; interannual levels are negatively related temperature. Both these fundamental findings model simulations for increasing atmospheric concentrations greenhouse gases. It further argued a growing body literature on reductions cyclone activity Northern Hemisphere. [Key words: t...
