CLIMATE.
The long term weather patterns in a certain area

This is not my work but I feel it is a good description
Rainforest do not generally vary a lot in temperature but have massive ranges in humidity yet deserts do vary in temperature but traditionally do not have a lot of humidity.It can be monitored over time.I live in a temperate clime some even dare say Mediterranian and it will be cold and wet in July and hot and clear in January.I have had over 50 years to observe this in person.Have a good think about it before you blow me out the water

Every part of your description is on subjective terms. There is no unit of measurement for a climate. There is no such thing as a 'global climate'. Earth is made up of many climates.

No, I am not blowing you out of the water. You have simply describe various climates.

The problem, of course, is what is 'a long time'? What is 'a certain area'?

I have already explained to you why it is stupid. You are, of course, free to think stupid shit is nonetheless "a good description" but don't be surprised when people peg you for being a moron. When they do, you will only have yourself to blame.

How do you expect to explain what you mean by long-term weather? Hmmm? You are setting yourself up to be mocked and ridiculed.

What are you going to say when it is pointed out to you that there is no such thing as "patterns" in random events? Are you going to pretend to be offended when you are asked when you dropped out of school?

How are you going to extrapolate "a certain area" into "the entire globe"? How are you planning on characterizing earth's "climate"? Is it freezing-hot mild-extreme humid-arid polar-tropical clear with heavy fog? What is it?

In fact, I just might start the mocking right now ... you know, to sort of get the ball rolling.

[begin mocking] Duncan, how many of both forcings and feedbacks do I need in order to have a valid measure of the global climate?

duncan61 wrote: Rainforest do not generally vary a lot in temperature

What do you mean by "a lot." I stood in one particular spot in Panamanian rain forest when it was 98.4F (36.9C) and another time when that same spot was 49.8F (9.9C). That's just a tad short of 50F (27C) difference.

All places on earth have broad temperature swings.

How 'long', is a long period of time? Since 'time' is a man made unit of measurement, just like planet killing CO2, is man made. The longest time available, in some areas, is about 122 years, when some locations started to keep an official, daily record (more, or less). Those records, pertain, only to the location they were recorded. They are the air temperature, not the ground temperature. If the air wasn't moving so much cold air down from way up north, it would be warm in Florida right now. The wind also moves hot air around too, though we don't mind, or care most of the time.

A long period of time, like the last ice age? Unfortunately, that ended long before anyone figured out how to write, and record anything, much less invent thermometers. Then again, time and calendars hadn't been invented either. This is our first inter glacial period, where we wrote stuff down, kept records. What is 'normal', is all fresh and new. We can invent all kinds of guesses, as to what our records an measurements mean, but we don't have any records, from past inter glacial periods to compare them to. We haven't any way to determine what a long period time is, for how long a inter glacial period lasts, or even how long an ice age will last. We would need to go through several cycles, to establish any sort of 'normal', many more thousands of years, of taking measurements, and recording our findings. The declaration of an emergency, at this point, is fantasy

These gas lighters will never acknowledge that greater humidity causes warmer weather in a cold climate.

It goes against their religion to acknowledge that.

They must never go outside and don't know how to read weather forecasts.

Spend some time outside. Follow the weather through the seasons.

Let's count this year in my Mediterranean climate at 38 N. We had frosts in 4 mornings this late fall so far. So there were freezing temps. It was cold enough to snow. This happens pretty much every year a few times, if it's a clear night and if wind speed is high enough.

But when was the last time it snowed? 1976. Just about every single time, in all of winter history, when the clouds roll in, it gets too warm to snow.

Go figure...

Your WACKY religion is just that, i.e. a religion. I hate to break it to you but your religion is not supported by any science. In fact, it specifically runs counter to science. Your religion is one big violation of physics.

Clouds do NOT have magical superpowers to control temperature and they cannot create energy out of nothing.

No. There is no pattern. Period.

Think of it this way: If you flip a coin one hundred times, what "pattern" will you see that will tell you what you will flip next to continue the pattern? Correct, there are no patterns in random events. A pattern necessarily implies a dependency on some deterministic process that "determines" the pattern and creates it. There are no dependencies in random events. Each random event is independent of other random events that precede it or that follow it.

So if I roll three dice each day in the winter and add the totals, there will be no pattern. If I then add one die and roll four dice throughout the fall those totals will similarly have no pattern despite being statistically higher than the winter totals that I rolled. In the summer I roll five dice, again without pattern. In the Fall I roll four dice. Still no pattern at any point throughout the year.

You can't treat random events like their outcome is somehow deterministic and predetermined, as though what their final outcome will be is "what we know." the moment you do, you are begging to be mocked.

duncan61 wrote: ... but I know its not going to snow in Perth in the next few months.

First, you DON'T know that. It is merely your operating assumption. You are trying to claim that something you don't know is "what we know." Somebody bent you over and reamed that misinformation into you.

Second, whenever I roll four dice I know my total will not add up to three. Big deal. I still don't know what I'm going to roll.

duncan61 wrote: You only insult me because you are still smarting from Trump losing.

Imagine how you are going to be raked over the coals when Trump is sworn in in January.

You are naive about your own media. They are apparently the ones bending you over.

1. Again, you are deluding yourself into believing that you foresee the future. You are confusing your confidence with knowledge. There is no "sufficient amount" that suddenly transforms confidence into knowledge. If there were then we could control the future by hypnotizing and convincing people to absolute certainty of what we wanted to occur.
2. Past performance is no guarantee of future results; there is always a first time for everything
3. You are following tgoebble's lead in committing the fallacy of claimed omniscience. The future is anything but "what we know." Only science predicts nature.
4. You have not been around Perth forever. You don't know if and when it has snowed in Perth during the summer. You are again making another claim of omniscience.

Imagine if you pump up a tire, it generates heat.

Not possible. There is not enough carbon dioxide to significantly alter anything. It also cycles in and out of the atmosphere. We aren't talking about 1% of the atmosphere here. The atmosphere is not a closed container. It is not like a tire. To pump up a tire requires energy.

Your WACKY religion is just that, i.e. a religion. I hate to break it to you but your religion is not supported by any science. In fact, it specifically runs counter to science. Your religion is one big violation of physics.

Clouds do NOT have magical superpowers to control temperature and they cannot create energy out of nothing.

Sorry.

The energy added (pumping of the tire) is 1) breathing 2) burning.


No. Breathing does not generate thermal energy.
Burning does, but that is dissipated into space along with the rest of any thermal energy the Earth has.

No gas or vapor has the capability of warming the Earth. You can't create energy out of nothing.
You can't trap heat.
You can't trap light.
You can't trap thermal energy. There is always heat.

Burning doesn't add energy to Earth. Neither does breathing. The energy is already on Earth in the form of chemical energy (a type of potential energy). Potential energy has no temperature.

You are warm blooded. You get that energy keep your body warm by using the energy it takes to grow a plant.

It is still energy from the Sun. Nothing has increased energy anywhere except the Sun. Nothing has prevented that energy from being lost to space. The Earth stays the same temperature (assuming the Sun has the same output).

Spend some time outside. Follow the weather through the seasons.

Let's count this year in my Mediterranean climate at 38 N. We had frosts in 4 mornings this late fall so far. So there were freezing temps. It was cold enough to snow. This happens pretty much every year a few times, if it's a clear night and if wind speed is high enough.

But when was the last time it snowed? 1976. Just about every single time, in all of winter history, when the clouds roll in, it gets too warm to snow.

Go figure...


how exactly do we get snow, without clouds? Snow clouds were pretty distinctive, where I grew up. No clouds, no snow, no freezing rain (worse than snow).


That's the point dude! Whenever there are clouds it's too warm to snow. It rains.

If it's often cold enough to snow, why doesn't it ever snow?

It does snow. You said so yourself.

Clouds do not create or destroy energy.

All irrelevant points and denial

These gas lighters will never acknowledge that greater humidity causes warmer weather in a cold climate.

Humidity is not temperature, thought it is dependent on temperature. Reversal fallacy.

Inversion fallacy. That would be you. Why do you think humidity is expressed either as a percentage or as a temperature/dew point spread?


It is not a "reversal fallacy." You must be in denial.

You say humidity is dependent on temperature, and imply temperature cannot be dependent on humidity. This is a false dichotomy. You appear to be fabricating an either/or situation where such situation does not exist. Clouds have an effect on temperature. Xadoman just summed it up basically.

And since you are so rigid you can't even acknowledge this, it suggests that it goes against your religion and must be denied with rabid zeal.

Increased atmospheric CO2 would increase atmospheric density.

Imagine if you pump up a tire, it generates heat.

Not possible. There is not enough carbon dioxide to significantly alter anything. It also cycles in and out of the atmosphere. We aren't talking about 1% of the atmosphere here. The atmosphere is not a closed container. It is not like a tire. To pump up a tire requires energy.


I'm pretty sure what you are explicitly saying here is false.

Carbon dioxide increases the rate of water evaporation, and probably has lead to a cloudier world.

This would explain why the surface extent of ice in the Arctic has decreased substantially in the past 30 years. Clouds effect warmer temperatures in a cold climate.

Actually I think the atmosphere is more like a refrigerator / freezer, which must necessarily be closed container to function properly.

Copper shields against UV radiation effectively.

Glass slows down UV radiation.

Water is a good insulator.

A freezer traps cold in a box.

If you have a cloud cover, the clouds must be acting like insulation, from either hot sun or cold atmosphere.

It freezes 5 or 10 times a year and hasn't snowed in almost 50 years.

You are making an argument which is basically saying it's possible to roll a dice randomly 1000 times and never land on a 6!

Hi Duncan,

What was that evidence you once shared about an ice age at the equator? I can't remember it off the top of my head...

You STILL have not explained why you believe that clouds somehow cause changing conditions instead of changing conditions causing clouds, i.e. why you have the whole cause<=>effect thing backwards.

How do clouds magically increase the temperature when they find it to be cold, and then turn down the heat when it's "hot" without either magically creating energy or destroying same? How do clouds do that because I'd like to start a business selling products that do exactly that.

I believe the satellite data... Not NASA!


IMO the warming, which the data gathered indicates, is just a confirmation of the effect of increased CO2 concentration in the atmosphere.

I happen to believe it's alarming because I think the earth's atmosphere is a freezer, and the fusion of the sun is with the earth.

Am bored mate. Are you positing the theory that clouds have a lot of kinetic energy? And in the summer that incoming solar IR has more energy than the clouds do?
And then in winter, clouds increase the kinetic energy of the troposphere helping to keep it warm? You have simply gone mad. Clouds cannot have less KE than the Sun and more than a clear winters night. Balderdash I say!!! Balderdash!!!

Who supplies the satellite data?The temperature measuring device at the end of the runway at Amberley airforce base shows at that point it is a full degree cooler now than 1942.We do have a consensus that based on the few readings that can be taken of average temperatures around the world the warming has paused and will most likely reverse.China has refused to take Australian coal because we dared question the Covid situation now South China is on power rations and they are having a very cold time.The sea is not rising.Not even a little bit anywhere and the ice melts and refoms every year just like it always has.Russia does not give a toss because they take their own readings and have their own modelling and there is no problem
