Determine The Varying Factors Of Climate Change

Decent Essays

1 day- As the Earth rotates on its axis that creates seasonal variability, other factors that may impact the climate systems are volcanic aerosols which cool climate and shorten growing seasons. As the global radiation increased, so did the erythemal dose rate. As the hours the day began surface temperature would slowly rise and as the day ended the temperature went down. Climate is measured by devices used to track annual variability and climate patterns include thermometers, rain gauges, and stream gauges.

1 year- The forcing factors are the same as 1 day, and how you measure 1 year is the same as 1 day. Days are measured with temperature while years are measured with how much rain we got that year. The hydrograph is the tool that measures how much watersheds over a full year. …show more content…

The ocean's surface waters are separated from colder, deeper water by a thermocline. The upwelling of cold waters, along the equator in the eastern half of the pacific basin, can be blocked when sea level is high, resulting in warm events. When sea levels are low the thermocline tends to be shallow, allowing upwelling motions to bring cold water to the surface, resulting in cold conditions. How it's measured is by devices used to track decadal variability and climate patterns which includes thermometers, rain gauges, and stream gauges. Sea surfaces temperature is important in tracking ENSO and other ocean oscillations. This can be measured by the distance
