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...
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...
That BBC article presents apparent evidence of AGW by directing the viewer to their other article which states: If scientists have actually...
You're funny, but I doubt you're serious when it comes to debating AGW.
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...
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...
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...
Why?
Even if what you say is true, recent temperature changes can be explained by the decrease in cloud-cover. [IMG]
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...
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.
Jaworowski et al (1997) provides one possible theory (which may or may not be correct, I have not done his calculations): Here:...
Probably because atmospheric water vapour concentration is related to temperature and temperature (we are led to believe) has risen over the last...
