Vertical cross-sections of temperature trends in the lower atmosphere during the month of August. The bottom of the y-axis is the lower troposphere, and the upper portion is reaching into the stratosphere. Data is provided by @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social ERA5 reanalysis.
Imma need some help understanding this one. "per Decade"? Are there averages from '79 being compared to 2025? Time here eludes me. (But I am not a scientist)
This is calculating the trend (slope) from 1979 to 2024 (°C per year) and then converting the units to per decade by multiplying by 10.
The vertical is on a log scale. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decade_...
How has the tropopause shifted over the decades? It looks like it's gone higher.
Yep! Check this study out: doi.org/10.1126/scia...
Omg Zack ,this study breaks my brain lol I’ll leave this to u I’ll stick to my climate change coloring book with the red crayon 🖍️
Why the anomaly at 60-65 south?
This is just due to very large variability (atmospheric noise)... not statistically significant in this case.
Thanks
