VÃctor Manuel Velasco Herrera, investigador del Instituto de GeofÃsica de la UNAM, sostuvo lo anterior durante una conferencia que impartó en el Centro de Ciencias Aplicadas y Desarrollo Tecnológico. Victor Manuel Velasco Herrera, a researcher at the Institute of Geophysics of the UNAM, as argued earlier during a conference that teaches at the Centre for Applied Sciences and Technological Development.
En el acto, el especialista en sistemas de percepción remota dijo que la reciente rotura del glaciar argentino Perito Moreno, inusual por haberse producido en pleno invierno austral, no se debió al calentamiento global. In the event, the specialist in remote sensing systems said that the recent rupture of the Argentine Perito Moreno glacier, unusual for having produced a full austral winter, was not due to global warming.
El evento se debió, dijo, a un proceso natural provocado por la temperatura y la precipitación del rÃo. The event was due, he said, a natural process caused by temperature and precipitation of the river.
Velasco Herrera calificó de erróneos los pronósticos del Panel Intergubernamental sobre Cambio Climático (IPCC), conforme a los cuales el planeta está experimentando un aumento gradual de la temperatura, el llamado calentamiento global. Velasco Herrera described as erroneous predictions of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), pursuant to which the planet is experiencing a gradual increase in temperature, the so-called global warming.
Los modelos y pronósticos del IPCC “son incorrectos porque solamente están basados en modelos matemáticos y presentan resultados en escenarios que no incluyen, por ejemplo, la actividad solarâ€, dijo el también especialista en procesamiento de imágenes y señales y en prevención de desastres naturales. The models and forecasts of the IPCC "is incorrect because only are based on mathematical models and presented results at scenarios that do not include, for example, solar activity," said the specialist also in image processing and signs and prevention of natural disasters.
El fenómeno del cambio climático, agregó, debe comprender otra clase de factores, internos, como los volcanes y la propia actividad humana, y externos, como la actividad solar. The phenomenon of climate change, he added, should include other kinds of factors, both internal, such as volcanoes and the very human activity, and external, such as solar activity.
“Curiosamente, al astro nunca se le ha visto como un agente de enfriamiento, sino de calentamiento, pero tiene los dos papelesâ€, apuntó. "Curiously, the star never has been seen as a cooling agent, but warming, but has two roles", he said.
