Persian Gulf Temperatures May Be At the Edge of Human Tolerance In 30 Years (arstechnica.com)
An anonymous reader writes: According to a new climate study the Persian Gulf may become so hot and humid in the next 30 years that it will reach the threshold of human survivability. Ars reports: "Existing climate models have shown that a global temperature increase to the threshold of human survivability would be reached in some regions of the globe at a point in the distant future. However, a new paper published by Jeremy Pal and Elfatih Eltahir in Nature Climate Change presents evidence that this deadly combination of heat and humidity increases could occur in the Persian Gulf much earlier than previously anticipated."

Renamed as 'climate change'. Why?
Because there is no such thing as 'catastrophic man-made global warming', that's why.

Why not rename this site 'Climatedot' and have done with it?
What's this "human tolerance" language and why is it so ridiculous?
Oh. Because there's an agenda at work. Never mind.

i think this very important thanks power full visited my blog dunia matematika
It wasn't that long ago and we were supposed to be scared to death of the pending ice age that was driving us all into cold temperatures. On top of that, we're told that more land ice is being restored to the arctic than is melting. And on top of that, we're told that there actually hasn't been an increase in temperatures for the last fifteen years.
And on top of that, the way to address it isn't saying "we're all going to die, so we must have limits on stuff", but to start an Al Gore market index on "capping and trading"? The earth is in such a lurch over global wa-- er... I mean "climate change", that we're just willy nilly allowing "cap and trade" of stupid carbon credits as the solution? If it was so fucking serious, you'd think there'd be just CAP.. you know, rather than the cap AND TRADE scam.
So excuse me if I don't lose my shit over the next fourteen years, because of a bunch of "hurr durr consensus IS science" retards.
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I'm a "climate denialist" or whatever. I'm just saying that I'm not drinking your kool-aid, the same way I don't just jump on to any other popular bandwagon, because it's cool and sounds good to do. Especially when you fucks are so fucking scammy sounding.
That.
So, hell fire does exist, after all.
Look what ELSE we can blame on "climate change":
Climate change is killing our sex drive, bringing down U.S. birth rate, study says
There are so many things that can dampen your sex drive: You have a headache, you're tired, it's too hot outside.
According to a study, the last of those mojo-killers -- and the climate change that is causing more scorching hot days -- could be bringing down the birth rate in the United States.
So, can't get laid?
IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF THE SELFISH WHITEYS DRIVING SUVS!!!

Jesus H. Fucking Christ, and people wonder where the "deniers" come from.
Here's a clue: Chicken Little.
Here's another clue: Boy who cried "Wolf!"
Making that area of the world uninhabitable might not be a bad thing, considering the cockroaches that live there already. Scatter them like the tower of babel. Give them something to do beside Jihad! Works for me.
..thats one way of solving conflict in the Middle East
Donte Alistair Anderson Roberts - hi son!
Karma: Chameleon
It doesn't matter. By this time the entire population of the middle east will have "moved" to Europe.
Seven puppies were harmed during the making of this post.
Make sh*tloads of money selling fossil fuels to the rest of the world...
Parlay that money, and valuable commodity, into unwarranted global influence...
Have homeland rendered uninhabitable by the consequence of burning said fossil fuels...
Did you hear that? That was the Dubai housing bubble that burst.. :-)
It's just not survivable long term. This isn't 'the old and the weak might be in danger', it's 'you will die'.
Yes, technology will keep you alive short term.
A/C fails, you all die.
Water supply fails, you all die.
Power fails, you all die.
You have to leave town in a hurry, you all die. Look at how many people in that region are in refugee camps - all dead.
Can't grow food - O.K. import it. Ships late, you all die.
When they are talking about unihabitable they mean in. And the ground temperature thing, well bad news, it's average temperature, days are 50c, nights 30c, average is 40c, still unsurvivable.
This is NOT a problem technology will solve.
Sure, the west are the ones who are using all the fossil fuels, but it's the middle east that has made oil cheap and plentiful.
Its difficult to explain anything to people that can't be summed up into one sentence or a short five sentence anectdotal story.
That said the basic thermodynamics of added CO2 and other heat trapping gasses is simple, well understood, and was settled long ago academically. The real cutting edge research today is determining what will happen on a regional scale. In the above study published in Nature, it's not an increase in temperature so much as its an increase in regional moisture brought on by a slight warming and a shift in climate.
It's not a dust bowl effect, think of how bad that dry heat is going to be if it turns high humidity.
While results like these could be more accurately modeled, say by having better satellites, far more money is spent arguing than buying hardware and funding research. The possible doomsday scenerio isn't a whole planet that's too hot - its far more likely a slightly insane nuclear arms bearing nation essentially being locked inside a car with the windows rolled up in a Flordia kmart parking lot in July.
Refusing to sell the oil certainly didn't work out too well for them either.
The summary forgot the most important part of the study: Jeremy Pal and Elfatih Eltahir need a 30 year grant to "study the effects" of this phenomenon. Meanwhile in the real world, average temperatures in the Persian Gulf are at 50 year lows.
FTA
Whereas this can be seen as a good thing I worry that the same thing could happen to non-Muslim areas too like India
just buy bigger and more ACs.
Something that isn't in evidence in the comments here, judging by all the racist crap that's been posted so far.
" "Existing climate models have shown that a global temperature increase to the threshold of human survivability would be reached in some regions of the globe at a point in the distant future..."
This is somehow different than the many areas on the planet where humans should not be trying to live today?
... this could be yet another example of the data being fit around the policy - which is to create a carbon tax credit trading industry. ...like when we were being sold fraudulently when the CRU, paid for by people well positioned to make a fortune off this trading, falsified their data to try and have many countries sign up for carbon tax schemes at Copenhagen in 2009.
Luckily back then either a whistleblower or hackers got us the data - which quickly showed we were being lied to.
If you ever hear the words 'Carbon Tax' beware.
The heat won't matter because the whole place will be under water from the melting glaciers of Greenland.
Is there ever a downside to predicting that the sky is falling?
I'm absolutely serious. If you say the "cry wolf" effect, it's pretty clear that isn't happening here yet?

Religion keeps them from leaving their homeland (aka the frickin desert). If it gets too hot they still won't move, they'll just cry to the heavens about why their deity has forsaken them instead of do the practical thing and go rent an igloo.
just a thought
Does that prove that lack of oxygen for, say, 10 minutes, isn't a problem at all?
If so, feel free to stick your head in a plastic bag for 10 minutes and make personal testimony that not breathing for 10 minutes is easy and safe and not at all liable to kill people like yourself.
The closer you get to the devil, the hotter it will be.
Don't get it though, I thought that should have made Syria hotter than Iran.

No. I'm sure their Deity will tell them to go move to (invade) Europe. Deities are most accommodating about telling people to do things they want to do such as slaughtering infidels and raping 12 year old girls. (You smug western "Christians" might consider how a 2000 year old Jewish heretic who preached loving your neighbor somehow triggered a religion that could support predatory capitalism.)
...and that Angels exist, and Elvis can get your wash whiter with this one weird trick.
Science is INTERESTING, chaos theory even more so, and it's easy to see the changes if you know what to look for. The increased energy in the system is already turning all of weather to a parade of freak outliers and unpredictable quirky events that occasionally spike off the charts, and that's exactly in line with the 'chaotic system' model.
I wouldn't have called the 'Earth turning to an alien planet that doesn't support life' thing in thirty years, but if you specify it's to happen in particular (unusual areas) then I'll believe that. Some areas of the planet are already close to uninhabitable and it doesn't take that much to push 'em over the brink. The thing to watch for is not places being rendered uninhabitable by weather extremes, it's more about masses of people/animals displaced because the change is a new thing that nobody's prepared for.
You can probably, right now, buy a 40-year lease on land that might as well be the Moon in 40 years. If you want a real picture of the plausibility of man-made global climate change, don't check scientists or Al Gore, consult actuaries and insurance companies. Pretty sure you'll find they're believers, because they have to actually pay for it if they choose wrong.
I continue to try and point out the very worrying uncertainty in climate models. The IPCC's fifth AR has a chapter on climate models. In assessing the state of the art, they have the following to say(Box 9.1 for those wanting to follow along:
Model tuning aims to match observed climate system behaviour and so is connected to judgements as to what constitutes a skilful representation of the Earth’s climate. For instance, maintaining the global mean top of the atmosphere (TOA) energy balance in a simulation of pre-industrial climate is essential to prevent the climate system from drifting to an unrealistic state. The models used in this report almost universally contain adjustments to parameters in their treatment of clouds to fulfil this important constraint of the climate system
They then go on to cite a half dozen peer reviewed articles confirming this.
Now, it doesn't take much better than a layman understanding to know that the entirety of the greenhouse effect is about the energy balance. More energy entering the planet than leaving it will warm, and more leaving will cool it. The trouble is that if the energy imbalance is the driving force behind climate change, you really want to get to a point where the models can get that part right without being specifically tuned to correct it. When the models energy imbalance for hindcasting causes unrealistic drift until modellers tune and tweak things by hand to get the known 'right answer', it ain't good enough for predictions.
It's not wrong to tune models this way, nor are models not useful at this stage. The trick is that they are only useful for testing out how things work under a given energy imbalance or energy conditions. They are NOT useful for hindcasting energy imbalance, let alone for predicting it for the next 30-100 years.
As of this writing, only 6 of 210 postings were at level 5 which just goes to show how pointlessly contentious this topic is. Maybe the Slashdot editors should think about a moratorium on climate topics for a while.
Some are paid shills, and some simply believe - or at least post - whatever helps them reinforce their self-image or score social points with or for their tribe. But for most I suspect the main motivator is the sunk cost fallacy: they simply don't want to admit being wrong, since at this point that would also mean admitting either dishonesty or stupidity or both.
Forget magic. Any technology distinguishable from divine power is insufficiently advanced.
NASA must fall into this category because they are currently funding Yue Deng's creation of new GCM's at the University of Texas to better understand what happens to the solar wind charged particles when they are suddenly dumped into the poles. Astrophysicists have known for a number of decades now that these events are associated with wild movements of the jet stream, which as you likely know, are also correlated with extreme weather patterns.
Researchers looking into this approach believe that it can be used to extend our weather predictions to more than just two weeks. You might consider sending them a letter to inform them that they are a denier.
You know why people move? Because the conditions become hostile to continued existence. Sure there'll be people who stick around, but most "normal" people will leave when conditions get overly harsh.
It's been that way for hundreds of thousands of years. If it weren't for these borders, people would move even more if they could.
Chinese as well. No question they built a worthy civilization. Got there first, too.
IIRC, we had Chinese, Greek, Roman, Arab all before anything else really got started. The Romans were European, so you can point to that, but the rest of Europe, not so much as early starters.
But at this point, everyone who wants to play is either playing or trying to play (often with greedy and violent idiots doing their very best to hold them down.)
Whatever truth there is to "these (insert people) were first", it's all irrelevant now other than as historical data. It's over and done with. We are where we are -- and I have to say, thinking about every "advanced" variation on civilization on the planet I know of, we have a hell of a lot further to go, so bragging seems like a very stupid thing to do, frankly.

There will be heat waves and that means that the temperature and humidity on occasions can go pass human survivability in large parts of the world. There have been deaths in the recent past due to heat waves like in France, Chicago, India. As the average global temperature increases the heat waves will get more frequent and more deadly.

The source for the quoted nonsense above is WUWT, one of many denier/front sites funded by the (untaxed) anti-science lobbyists at the .
The fact is that hindcasting is how climate models are tested, how else would anyone test it? You can find the code for several important models here and run it yourself for the price of a decent server.
Not only can we model the evolution of Earth's past climate and routinely hindcast the last 500yrs with high levels of "model skill", we can also model the evolution of climate on other planets, in particular Mars and Venus. Here's a reliable and independent source that talks about hindcasting climate for testing purposes.
Note also that the uncertainty you quote is about cloud cover, the other common cherry pick used in this kind of FUD is the uncertainty surrounding the behaviour of ice. These two KNOWN uncertainties are discussed in great detail in the report you linked to. They are responsible for what scientists call "error bars". The WG1 report is however the best summary of the current state of climate science that anyone has to offer. If you want to debunk climate science that is the primary document to attack, it is the embodiment of the so called "consensus", good luck in your studies.

Quickly, after the willing evacuation of the population introduce lizards and little sand worms into the area. After only few tens of thousands of generations we can go there in still suits and hunt dinosaurs and worms for meat and recreation.
1) Invest into research and effort how to reduce global warming
2) Invest into research and effort to build really high and strong wall around Middle East to keep affected people from escaping to other regions
Why I feel that solution 2 will be a lot easier to implement both politically and economically...
The Persian gulf may be one of the more livable areas as we are sliding into the next era of global cooling.
After all, global temperatures have not increased now for over two decades... if CO2 (which has been rising) is warming the planet, a flat climate with no increase means the natural progression was actually cooling.
"There is more worth loving than we have strength to love." - Brian Jay Stanley
The articles doesn't give us a single temperature estimate, which I find bizarre. Their models are quantitative. What exactly is the upper temperature bound on human survivability?
No, we will not tolerate a bunch of muslims moving into our country and demanding to convert everything and everyone to Islam. This by the way is exactly what happened in Lebanon.
Lebanon was mostly Christian, then when the muslims were welcomed in, they started making demands, then became violent as their numbers grew, and finally, the Christians that remained were killed or driven out.
That is the nature of Islam.

Hint: Carbon dioxide is only about 5% of the total greenhouse effect on earth. The actual major contributor to the greenhouse effect is water vapor. But the problem with water vapor is that the government can't demonize it and use it as a basis for a power grab.
No, the problem with water vapor is that there are huge reservoirs of it on almost all the globe's surface, and we can't do anything about that. The atmosphere is more or less saturated with it, to the point where it regularly precipitates out.
The problem with carbon dioxide is that it doesn't precipitate. You don't seem to have any idea how it actually traps heat: the good news is that you can replicate this in your basement if you like. The atmosphere is opaque to IR. The mean free path is on the range of meters at sea level (which is why IR photos are blurry) and tens of meters in the upper atmosphere. IR gets absorbed and re-emitted, and finally reaches a level where it is statistically not likely to hit anything if it goes upwards. That lag between when the outgoing thermal radiation is emitted and when it escapes to space is what keeps the Earth from being at its equilibrium temperature (which would be well below freezing). This is directly measurable. There is no other way for thermal energy to escape Earth aside from radiation. The effect of increased CO2 is not to absorb more radiation from the sun, nor does it affect the lower atmosphere that much, (going from a short mean free path to a shorter one isn't that big of a deal). What it does is extend the CO2-rich region further out into space, which means that it takes IR longer to leave the atmosphere, which raises the energy in the Earth's atmosphere. This is true unless everything we know about radiation is wrong, and like I said, you can verify it for yourself. The amount of warming that is guaranteed for a doubling of atmospheric CO2 is about 3.7 W/m^2, or about 1 degree C global temperature. No one is worried about that.
The issue is the water vapor. There's tons of it. It's everywhere, and it's a much better greenhouse gas, and the atmosphere can hold exponentially more of it with increased temperature. Can you say, "feedback loop"? That's what keeps scientists up nights. It's not an unchecked loop, at least until solar irradiance rises enough to start cooking H2O out into space, but the Earth is as happy with global ice ages as it is with ice-free poles, and human civilization is kinda tied to the current interglacial.
What the lag says is that other factors (like Milankovich cycles) influence climate. That tiny extra percent of retained energy takes a long time to show its effect. That it does so eventually is unfortunately indisputable. The physics of atmospheric radiation are bulletproof, and are used to model and predict atmospheric conditions in the Sun, stars, and other planets. We have been trying to prove this phenomenon wrong for 200 years and counting. But if you want to try it out for yourself, CO2 and H2O are pretty easy to come by.
Those who advocate genocide deserve every protection afforded by law, and none afforded by common human decency.

You're about 1600 years to late to make that statement. If people were happy there Mohammad would have been written off as being just another asshole.
Happy people don't start wars, scared, miserable, destitute and otherwise uncomfortable people start wars.
When human life becomes 100% dependent on technology it's only a matter of time before everyone in the area dies.
A/C goes out for you, it's uncomfortable you call a repair man and put up with the discomfort, there, you die.
Water supply goes out for you, someone will generally truck in water and distribute it because all YOU need is drinking water - probably not that feasible in this case, the streets aren't survivable and they'll be using shitloads of water just as a heatsink .
"" Power.
The unstable politics in that area certainly won't help in terms of how fast it happens but there fundamental problem is that there's a BIG difference between technology making things comfortable for humans and humans needing technology to simply survive. And A/C units are not 'simple' technology. A swamp cooler yes, but as others have pointed out they won't work in the predicted humidity.
Time to close our borders, the sand people are coming
...but consider that a good thing. Given how those people have been fighting each other over every square inch of that land while indulging in their religious hobby of murdering people who have nothing to do with their problems nor any power to affect them, we may finally hope to see peace when the entire, bloodthirsty, lot of them die of heat stroke.
All of Nord places like Siberia and Alaska is far beyond human survivability. It is normal to have the same place somewhere at South
Use science, bitch, if you want to survive.
Most of northern places like Siberia and Alaska are far beyond of human survivability.

Wow 2 climate scare stories in one day? Slashdot must be trying to help hype the Paris talks. Too bad that they are based on models which have not had any predictive ability.
http://wattsupwiththat.com/2015/10/27/claim-170f-76c-heat-waves-will-make-persian-gulf-uninhabitable-by-2100/
Here are 2 predictions. First I predict that CO2 will continue to increase because China and other countries don't care about CO2. They don't even care about real pollutants much less CO2. Second I predict it will get colder over the next 20-30 years. Why?
The PDO is in its negative phase, the AMO has peaked and is on the way down and the sun is in its quietest phase in hundreds of years. So we have a great opportunity to do real science. If CO2 does control the climate then we should get warmer despite all those factors. If it doesn't then expect it to get much colder over the next several decades. So far the evidence of science is that CO2 does NOT control the climate.
If you want to read a great explanation of why the IPCC models are broken beyond belief there was a great article describing that and all the other problems with climate science by Dr Brown of Duke university
http://wattsupwiththat.com/2014/10/06/real-science-debates-are-not-rare/
How ironic it is that one of the largest supplies of fossil fuels ever is going to experience the worst of global warming caused by the same...
so................ if it says so in a "model" then it will definitely happen, no if's and's or but's. scare tactics in full force. or somebody stands to make a bunch of money. (there was a coming ice age in the seventies btw). always a crisis. everybody is gonna DIE!!!! bla bla bla.
The westernmost parts of Africa, on the equator, that area isn't claimed by any African nation. It's too damn hot. We already know that the Sahara (word meaning desert, so the desert desert...heh), used to be more like the everglades in Florida. Hippos, crocks and so on. Yet it's sand today.

I've also stated MANY TIMES I use remote DNS in OpenDNS @ home (but not @ work on AD networks + exchange/outlook: Free OpenDNS model doesn't work with AD dependent Exchange + Outlook specifically you lying little imbecile).
I also don't hardcode in "every site there is under the sun" is why, so I have to use DNS, but OpenDNS & rarely.
I also RARELY MISS A LOOKUP since I put where I spend a good 95++% of my time online in my favorite sites into hosts @ the TOP of hosts for utmost LOCAL FASTER RESOLUTION SPEEDS and more reliability vs. Open DNS (not OpenDNS) resolvers being abused, Kaminsky redirect poisoned DNS servers (of which 99.999% of ISP DNS are not proofed against to this very day even though a patch exists which OpenDNS uses), rogue DNS servers, and yes ROUTERS with bushwhacked by malware DNS settings (happening a LOT lately).
Hardcodes in hosts are faster than remote DNS, waste less resources than local dns in power, cpu cycles, RAM, & other I/O by FAR considering ALL THE PARTS of such a setup in programs, data, I/O, & power (especially if setup as a separate machine).
