Nathan-D's Recent Activity

Below is a graph from Trenberth and the IPCC showing the 333 W/m2 of radiation absorbed by the surface from all greenhouse gases combined (take it as fiction or fact): [IMG]

Nathan-D replied to the thread Climate deniers don't deny climate change any more.

Agreed. That warming might be even less than 0.006C That warming from the Stefan-Boltzmann law is probably an overestimation too. The idea that a given radiative imbalance...

You're funny, but I doubt you're serious when it comes to debating AGW.

Nathan-D replied to the thread Climate deniers don't deny climate change any more.

Okay. I'm pretty sure you're trolling me now.

You mean this "consensus"? [MEDIA]

Changes. There's been a large decline in phytoplankton over the last 50 years. Dinoflagellates have decreased by 5% per decade since the 1960s while the quantities of...

No-one knows for sure what caused the change in cloud-cover to the best of my knowledge. Some scientists, such as Henrik Svensmark, have argued (convincingly) that clouds could...

Regardless, his calculations still imply that human CO2-emissions still cannot be responsible for all of it. The IPCC tell us that 100% of the increase in atmospheric CO2 is...

Nathan-D replied to the thread Climate deniers don't deny climate change any more.

Why?

Nathan-D replied to the thread Climate deniers don't deny climate change any more.

Even if what you say is true, recent temperature changes can be explained by the decrease in cloud-cover. [IMG]

Nathan-D replied to the thread Climate deniers don't deny climate change any more.

But I quoted a paper that calculates a considerable amount of the CO2 increase to CO2 outgassing from the oceans. Is he wrong? Maybe? You are just making things up.

Nathan-D replied to the thread Could recent global warming be explained by changes in solar variation?.

I think so yep. The IPCC even say that water vapour is "not a forcing" but a "feedback" to changes in temperature. Take that as you will.

Nathan-D replied to the thread Climate deniers don't deny climate change any more.

Jaworowski et al (1997) provides one possible theory (which may or may not be correct, I have not done his calculations): Here:...

Nathan-D replied to the thread Could recent global warming be explained by changes in solar variation?.

Probably because atmospheric water vapour concentration is related to temperature and temperature (we are led to believe) has risen over the last 50 years. Warmer air can hold...

I think that is what the CAGW-crowd is doing. They rely on the sunspot number for their TSI reconstructions and TSI reconstructions relying predominantly on sunspot records...

Nathan-D replied to the thread Climate deniers don't deny climate change any more.

Yes. Below is a graph you may (or may not) find interesting Mitty. I think it might just give you some insight into some of the reasons for us CAGW-skeptics being unable to...

Nathan-D replied to the thread Climate deniers don't deny climate change any more.

I was just posting what Humlum et al (2013) found. I suppose a portion of the increase in atmospheric CO2 might be explained by a decrease in the soulbility of CO2 in the...

Yeah, I'd say that Lindzen is closer to the real number. Satellites and radiosondes would also support the low CS from Lindzen.

Nathan-D liked bringiton's post in the thread Climate deniers don't deny climate change any more.

Eventually, superhuman artificial intelligence (SAI) will figure this out. I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that Lindzen, Choi and Specht will turn out to be closest...

The meaning of "current" and "recent" seem to depend on what argument is being made. Wrong. The stratospheric water vapor pulse created by the Tonga volcano two years ago,...

They assume that water vapour feedback (the main feedback) increases radiative forcing from 3.7 W/m2 to 16.5 W/m2 for an ECS of about 3C. However, many studies show a much...

I gave the answer. 0.12°C. You appear to have got your green knickers in a twist over this.

What are we denying? We accept that CO2 causes warming, most also accept that recent increases in atmospheric CO2 are due to humans burning hydrocarbons, and most think...

“Denier” (and similar epithets) is a term of abuse which you are applying inappropriately to honest-minded skeptics.

Nathan-D replied to the thread Climate deniers don't deny climate change any more.

I don’t see the comparison. CAGW-skeptics are the majority not the minority (like Galileo). Unfortunately the power in our world lies with the 1% -- the global elite who...
