Correction to: On the relative strength of radiative feedbacks under climate variability and change

a synchronic and diachronic approach to the change route of address terms in the two recent centuries of persian language

terms of address as an important linguistics items provide valuable information about the interlocutors, their relationship and their circumstances. this study was done to investigate the change route of persian address terms in the two recent centuries including three historical periods of qajar, pahlavi and after the islamic revolution. data were extracted from a corpus consisting 24 novels w...

Relative roles of surface temperature and climate forcing patterns in the inconstancy of radiative feedbacks

Shifts in Arctic vegetation and associated feedbacks under climate change

Climate warming has led to changes in the composition, density and distribution of Arctic vegetation in recent decades1–4. These changes cause multiple opposing feedbacks between the biosphere and atmosphere5–9, the relative magnitudes of which will have globally significant consequences but are unknown at a pan-Arctic scale10. The precise nature of Arctic vegetation change under future warming...

Regional Climate Change Policy under Positive Feedbacks and Strategic Interactions

The surface albedo feedback along with heat and moisture transport from the Equator to the Poles, are associated with polar amplification which is a well-established scientific fact. The present paper extends Brock and Xepapadeas (2017) to a non-cooperative framework with polar amplification, where regions decide emissions by maximizing own welfare. This can be regarded as a case of regional no...

Biosphere feedbacks and climate change

POLICY ACTION ON CLIMATE CHANGE IS INFORMED BY CLIMATE MODEL projections as described most recently in the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The models used are general circulation models (GCMs), which numerically represent the physical climate system in three dimensions, including the hydrological cycle. These are complemented by recently de...
