What left field did that come from??? Heat seeking missiles are NOT looking for carbon dioxide!

I'll ignore your usual wild claims of scientists this time. It's just your usual garbage.

It's also you usual garbage to say we have no qualifications or background. You have no idea who we are or what our qualifications or backgrounds are.

It's also your usual fallacy to depend on such things.


The US Air Force comment wasn't 'out of left field' at all. In fact it blows ITN's and IB's nutty anti-science beliefs out of the water. I've mentioned the US Air Force about half a dozen times on this forum- guess they missed the comments. For people who try to present themselves as 'experts' who supposedly know more than all the atmospheric physicists in the world
, Into the Dark's and IBdaMann's complete ignorance of the history of research of the earth's atmosphere is appalling.

The US Air Force started conducting atmospheric research during the Cold War to understand the physics of the atmosphere to make their heat-seeking missiles more accurate. The research included heat transfer and a detailed knowledge of the infrared properties of 'greenhouse' gases in the atmosphere.

That's when the HITRAN (high resolution transmission molecular absorption) line database was first started in the 1960's -from the US Air Force Cambridge Research Laboratories.

Here's a little video for scientifically illiterate Ostriches like Into the Night and IBDaMned who bury their heads in the sand:

I recommend you become familiar with Tyndall's work. He did some good work and he also got some stuff wrong (which has been dropped from the body of science).

Science is constantly evolving and those models and concepts that are found to be false are either corrected or dropped.

I recommend you review your beliefs to ensure they are not based on concepts that have been shown to be false, albeit forever documented.

"The planetary warming resulting from the greenhouse effect is consistent with the second law of thermodynamics because a planet is not a closed system. It exchanges heat with a high-temperature bath by absorbing radiation from the photosphere of its star and with a cold bath by emitting IR into the essentially zero-temperature reservoir of space. It therefore reaches equilibrium at a temperature intermediate between the two.

The greenhouse effect shifts the planet's surface temperature toward the photospheric temperature by reducing the rate at which the planet loses energy at a given surface temperature. The way that works is really no different from the way adding fiberglass insulation or low-emissivity windows to your home increases its temperature without requiring more energy input from the furnace. The temperature of your house is intermediate between the temperature of the flame in your furnace and the temperature of the outdoors, and adding insulation shifts it toward the former by reducing the rate at which the house loses energy to the outdoors.

As Fourier already understood, when it comes to relating temperature to the principles of energy balance, it matters little whether the heat-loss mechanism is purely radiative, as in the case of a planet, or a mix of radiation and turbulent convection, as in the case of a house—or a greenhouse. Carbon dioxide is just planetary insulation.

Though the first calculation of the warming of Earth due to CO2 increase was carried out by Arrhenius in 1896, accurate CO2 and water-vapor spectroscopy and a fully correct formulation of planetary energy balance did not come together until the work of Syukuro Manabe and Richard Wetherald in 1967.

With that development, the theory was brought to its modern state of understanding. It has withstood all subsequent challenges and without question represents one of the great triumphs of 20th-century physics."

Infrared Radiation and Planetary Temperature - Physics Today

Yet nutters like IBAwesome and Into the Dark are still trying to argue that the
'greenhouse' effect and 'greenhouse' gases don't even exist. How much of their lives have they wasted on posting scientifically illiterate rants that are not only incorrect, but "Not Even Wrong"?

This is a false statement. Whether or not the planet is a closed system in a given model is irrelevant. The 2nd LoT always applies. One does not get to avoid complying with the 2nd LoT by pointing to the earth and declaring it "not a closed system."

Any such assertion can be immediately dismissed without reading further.

Ceist wrote: The greenhouse effect shifts the planet's surface temperature toward the photospheric temperature by reducing the rate at which the planet loses energy at a given surface temperature.

Right. This doesn't happen. This is an egregious violation of physics. Temperature drives thermal radiation, not the other way around. You can't have a body's temperature increasing while its thermal radiation is decreasing. Also, there is no magical/divine force in nature that miraculously controls thermal radiation which then drives temperatures.

All we need now is the classic conflation of thermal radiation with thermal conduction/convection...

Ceist wrote: The way that works is really no different from the way adding fiberglass insulation or low-emissivity windows to your home ...

...and here we have it! Nothing broadcasts more clearly and concisely that you don't know what the hell you are talking about quite like being duped into thinking that thermal radiation works just like thermal convection/conduction.

Ceist wrote: Though the first calculation of the warming of Earth due to CO2 increase was carried out by Arrhenius in 1896,

All mentions of Arrhenius are summarily dismissed. There's a reason we don't have an "Arrhenius Warming Law" or an "Arrhenius Warming Constant." He was completely wrong and his work with CO2 never made it into the body of science. He simply started with the mistaken assumption that CO2 heats the planet and then published his guesstimates about temperature increases per quantities of CO2.

Now only warmizombies dig up his work and erroneously imply that it is actually in the body of science.

Heat seeking missiles automatically adjust for background as they fly. The study you mention is to help make them more accurate against smaller targets. CO2 does not heat things up. It masks the signature of smaller targets. That's it. Sheesh.

I didn't read all the posts, but I searched them. None of you mention the Dry Adiabatic Lapse Rate, so I will do that.

The dry adiabatic lapse rate is around 9.8 K/km on Earth. As it is dependent only on local gravity and heat capacity, it will be about the same in an atmosphere with about the same heat capacity.

If we assume 1) the dry adiabatic lapse rate still will be there in the troposphere and 2) the Earth had so much atmosphere, that the tropopause was raised to 30 km altitude, then:

the temperature in 30 km altitude would be 30 * 9.8 = 294 Kelvin lower than at the surface. If the surface would have a temperature of 254 Kelvin (which is the black-body temperature of Earth), then the temperature at 30 km altitude would be:

254 K - 294 K = -40 K

Ok, this is not valid physics, as you can't go below zero Kelvin.
Conclusion: something is wrong in the above.

I'm not 'guessing' that Into The Dark and IBdaMned have no qualifications or background in science- it's damned obvious from their ridiculous scientifically illiterate posts.


You are actually going to drag this up again???

Heat seeking missiles automatically adjust for background as they fly. The study you mention is to help make them more accurate against smaller targets. CO2 does not heat things up. It masks the signature of smaller targets. That's it. Sheesh.


Yes yes, I know Into the Night doesn't like me bringing up science and facts which blow his scientifically illiterate claims out of the water and exposes him as a nutter.

He seriously knows nothing about the major atmospheric research and experiments the US Air Force was involved in after WWII that added greatly to the knowledge of the physics of the atmosphere, including greenhouse gases, yet claims to understand the physics of the atmosphere more than all the atmospheric scientists in the world, including those who worked for the US Air Force and created the original HITRAN database. It's the standard for calculating atmospheric molecular transmission and radiance of the electromagnetic spectrum and used in industry all over the world.

But in ITN's alternate reality, none of this exists.

You should, in science, believe logic and arguments, carefully drawn, and not authorities.

I didn't read all the posts, but I searched them. None of you mention the Dry Adiabatic Lapse Rate, so I will do that.

The dry adiabatic lapse rate is around 9.8 K/km on Earth. As it is dependent only on local gravity and heat capacity, it will be about the same in an atmosphere with about the same heat capacity.

If we assume 1) the dry adiabatic lapse rate still will be there in the troposphere and 2) the Earth had so much atmosphere, that the tropopause was raised to 30 km altitude, then:

the temperature in 30 km altitude would be 30 * 9.8 = 294 Kelvin lower than at the surface. If the surface would have a temperature of 254 Kelvin (which is the black-body temperature of Earth), then the temperature at 30 km altitude would be:

254 K - 294 K = -40 K

Ok, this is not valid physics, as you can't go below zero Kelvin.
Conclusion: something is wrong in the above.

Liar.


Tell that to the Dept of Energy. They did the estimate. Personally, I question their methods anyway.

You're simply lying. Prove you aren't by linking to wherever you got that figure from. Or show how you calculated it.


I didn't calculate it. I told you where I got the estimate from. Go look it up yourself.

Liar.

Well, I looked on the DOE website and didn't find the figure you quoted. You're lying, aren't you? Tell me, why do you feel the need to lie about this?

Into the Night, I'm still waiting for you to explain why you were lying.


Since you've decided to take the position that I'm lying, I have no inclination to help you. You're done. Your inability to find it is entirely your problem now.

No, you're done. You've been caught out lying in order to further your idealogical agenda. If it were an honest mistake, then you'd have apologised and we could move on. Obviously it wasn't a mistake; it was just a lie. Why should anyone take you seriously when you just make stuff up?

I recommend you become familiar with Tyndall's work. He did some good work and he also got some stuff wrong (which has been dropped from the body of science).

Science is constantly evolving and those models and concepts that are found to be false are either corrected or dropped.

I recommend you review your beliefs to ensure they are not based on concepts that have been shown to be false, albeit forever documented.

Of course you are well versed in the works of all 19 century physicists, chemists and philosophers. Anyway he was right about some things he might well have been wrong about others, who amongst us is right about everything?

But tell me do you really think a man like that would have spent so much time effort and expense on something that obviously violates the laws of physics?

What left field did that come from??? Heat seeking missiles are NOT looking for carbon dioxide!

I'll ignore your usual wild claims of scientists this time. It's just your usual garbage.

It's also you usual garbage to say we have no qualifications or background. You have no idea who we are or what our qualifications or backgrounds are.

It's also your usual fallacy to depend on such things.


The US Air Force comment wasn't 'out of left field' at all. In fact it blows ITN's and IB's nutty anti-science beliefs out of the water. I've mentioned the US Air Force about half a dozen times on this forum- guess they missed the comments. For people who try to present themselves as 'experts' who supposedly know more than all the atmospheric physicists in the world
, Into the Dark's and IBdaMann's complete ignorance of the history of research of the earth's atmosphere is appalling.

The US Air Force started conducting atmospheric research during the Cold War to understand the physics of the atmosphere to make their heat-seeking missiles more accurate. The research included heat transfer and a detailed knowledge of the infrared properties of 'greenhouse' gases in the atmosphere.

That's when the HITRAN (high resolution transmission molecular absorption) line database was first started in the 1960's -from the US Air Force Cambridge Research Laboratories.

Now you're just denying what was said and you even quoted. As usual, you are making up stuff that was never said also. You're hateful and useless.
