Differences between the past and the present time16-11-2009 17:47 | |

It's often used as an argument against the theory of anthropogenic global warming, that in the past, the temperature rise caused the CO2 rise, and not the other way round. But how can this be an argument against the theory that present CO2 rise causes temperature rise? I can't see the point, because logically the two things (the behaviour of the past and the alleged behaviour of the present) are not mutually exclusive, and they can very well be true at the same time. |

The Climate change is in the humidity and only secondary in temperature. 2. The reconstruction of the temperature of the past is base on isotopes of oxygen, and they are depend on both temperature and number of mornings where the water/ice had evaporated. 3. The change of CO2 in the atmosphere have two cause: The supply and attrition of CO2. 3.1 Majority of the supply by CO2 to the atmosphere, is from the oceans, and the oceans have the CO2 from natural oil well on the ocean floor. The CO2 go from the ocean by rise of temperature and by change of currents. 3.2 Majority of the attrition of CO2 to the atmosphere is by the rain. This growing by rise of CO2 in the atmosphere. And grow by the rainfall. |

CO2 is a greenhouse gas. As such it slows the loss of thermal energy from the surface to space. Any doubling of CO2 brings about 3.7W/m^2 of increased downward radiation as measured from the tropopause. It does not matter if the the CO2 increases before or after an initial temperature rise. The effect of the increased CO2 is the same in either case. If temperature were to rise slightly, say by orbital forcing, this would cause an increase in atmospheric CO2 as warmer sea water would release additional CO2 out of solution. A new equilibrium state having been established, the positive feedback by extra CO2 acting as a greenhouse gas would enhance the initial warming induced by the orbital forcing. This is what to take away from the ice core measurements of CO2 rise following temperature increase in the climate record by some 800 years. If the CO2 comes before any temperature rise it still nonetheless acts as a greenhouse gas in the same manner. In the case where Man's activities iare adding CO2 to the environment at such a rate that the oceans can not totally absorb it all, the CO2 concentration is building up in the atmosphere and producing the same forcing as would be the case with the CO2 increase following temperate rise. The same forcing at 3.7W/m^2/2xCO2 arises and will be subject to similar positive feedbacks as in water vapor feedback and albedo changes. |

You have need to put water vapor with CO2, because they absorb the same light. |

"Greenhouse gas'" are fantasy. The thermal energy from the sun is greater than the thermal energy from surface. Do you realize the Earth's surface receives more energy per unit area from it's own atmosphere than it does directly from the Sun? In fact the surface receives nearly double the radiant energy from the atmosphere than from the Sun! "Greenhouses gas" raise the temperature of Earth's surface by about 33C above what the Sun alone can do. While the Sun is a very much hotter radiant body than Earth's atmosphere, the atmosphere radiates from 180 angular degrees while the Sun only from 1/2 angular degree. The atmosphere radiates 24 hour per day. The Sun only when above the horizon. Edited on 28-12-2010 21:11 |

The atmospheric diameter is larger than Earth's diameter. And the light is broken in the atmosphere. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twilight In a desert temperature drops about 40K in one night. Which may be a reflection of the sun's great power for days. |

Fortunately, the process of science did not stop in 1909. We now know much more about CO2 radiative forcing, the non-linear relationship between Atmospheric CO2 concentrations and global average surface temperatures. We also have considerable doubts about the efficacy of constant fiddling with global surface temperature records, the effects of the Urban Heat Island Effect, and the results of mixing proxy climate records. The Hockey Stick graph is thoroughly refuted. |

Hayduke: I call bull on what you're saying. Let me see or provide me with your link to a peer reviewed article saying the Hockey Stick graph is wrong. I've read the papers the reviewed the Hockey Stick Graphs. Blemishes and all, those papers SUPPORTED it. I'm really not interested in seeing Exxon funded bloggers and other entertainment sources. Show me something real and tangible. As for fiddling surface temperatures, again, I call bull. Actual measurements show clearly that global warming is occurring. Specifically, a small rise in temperature should show a massive rise at the poles. This is happening. Correlating to these temperature changes, is the melting of the arctic ice. Even more nifty is that you can see your hockey stick in how the ice melts. In short ALL the theory is holding fine. Here's what Environment Canada says about how Canada's climate has changed. Including a massive hot spot over the arctic. http://www.ec.gc.ca/adsc-cmda/default.asp?lang=En&n=77842065-1 As you can see here the arctic sea ice extent is reducing hugely. http://nsidc.org/sotc/sea_ice.html Finally, you can see your hockey stick... right here. http://arctic.atmos.uiuc.edu/cryosphere/IMAGES/seasonal.extent.1900-2007.jpg If you're feeling curious, you can generate your own graph from Environment Canada here; http://www.ec.gc.ca/glaces-ice/default.asp Icegraph 1.03 Canadian Arctic Plot Trendline Generate Graphs Under Historical Total Accumulated Ice Coverage 1971 - 2010, 0514 - 1015 Pick "Stage of Development" Its looking pretty hockey stick. |

It is quite true that a doubling of CO2 (by about year 2050) will cause 3.7watts per sq meter increased forcing that equates to a 1C rise, (big deal) that is insignicant compared to natural causes like solar/ocean cycles. Even if it did cause some marginal outgassing of CO2, we would have to wait until we got to 1100ppm before we get another 1C rise. |

You totally ignore equilibrium climate sensitivity over the Planck responce of 1.2C as a factor, which is estimated to reside somewhere between 1.5C and 4.5C per doubling of CO2 or it's equivalence in radiative forcing. |

If we assume that historical increases in the earth's temperature were followed chronologically by increased levels of atmospheric CO2, then we know that something else caused the temperature increase and that elevated CO2 levels are a subsequent result, not a cause. Additionally, the primary argument being refuted is that elevated CO2 levels (and magical "greenhouse gases") are somehow the only explanation for the elevated atmospheric temperature. By showing that something other than CO2 caused the temperature increases we have rendered this particular argument false. I don't think i can [define it].

Higher temperatures DO lead to more CO2 released to the atmosphere, as more CO2 leads to higher temperature. Soil organic matter, for example, decomposes more rapidly as temperature rises. This releases more CO2 to the atmosphere. Certainly not mutually exclusive. More like synergistic. |

He only claims to be mentally ill while he is a typical Christian and represents the church in Jesus' holy name. I have to go by net CO2 equivalent emissions which is 6 x 10^9 tons. I really wish they said by what specific gas such as CH4, NOx, SOx, etc. This gets very much how many particles are in 1 mol, 6.023 X 10^23 and the weight of 1 mol of each molecular gas. They'll have an atomic mass based on the number of protons and neutrons they have. Then their weight by mol shows that as molecules they'll gain mass/weight. Is this right Swanee? The average kinetic energy for 1 mol of air according to Swanee is about 1,924 watts of power. He told me this, he really, really did. And now you're convinced, right? Good to know you understand how smart Swanee is. And with a weight of 6 x 10^9 (this is a rough estimate without know the difference between atomic mass of the particles and the weight of their molecules, just sloppy, right Swanee?. But the kinetic energy in that many tons of CO2 in the troposphere is 1,530,874,248,750,000,000 J or 1.5309 x 10^18 watts of power. There are 1.78 × 10^20 mol of gas in the atmosphere. Then 1.5309 x 10^18 j divided by 1.78 x 10^20 mol equals 8.60056 x 10^-3 watts per mol on average. It's important to notice the minus sign in front of the 3 in 10^ -3. Move the decimal point 3 places to the left and it's 0.008 j/mol (watts per mol, a mol is about 22.4 cubic meters) and if we divide 0.008/22.4 = 0.000357143 w/m^3 (watts per cubic meter). Is this right Swanee? Can you check my work for me like you've always done? And if 1,924 w/mol = 518º F or 287ºk (kelvin) from absolute 0º to average 58.7º F. or 15.4º C., then everything points to ozone depletion being the actual threat. It is well known that more solar radiation = a warmer Earth. This actually verifies that. Still, because fossil fuel emissions include both NOx and SOx which are harmful to the ozone layer. And everyone in here knows I've always been on about that aspect of climate change. Deforestation (urban sprawl) and ozone depletion parallel global warming. Reducing ODSs (ozone depleting substances) should be the focus of any climate change policy. SOx and NOx emissions originate as products of combustion that accompany power generation and the processing of pulping chemicals. And Alan, at thenakedscientists.com website, they're no different than you are just as in many forums and in many churches you're typical. I show why Johann Bessler had a difficult life being 1/2 Polish and 1/2 German, it's about being able to fit in socially.

You Christians Alan should know the Bible says; 2 Thessalonians 3:10; For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.

He earned respect by being friends with who controlled forums. And as he just posted to me, no one will play with me if I don't learn to earn respect and he's willing to teach me. And unfortunately there is no cyber stalking law in the U.S. He thought he got what he wanted when I posted that he was a perpetual motion God.

And in the past Alan has posted to me "little boy I'll call your daddy", "you have to do exactly what I say if you want to live" and when me and my friends find out where you live we're going to visit you and teach you a lesson about what happens when people don't do what we want". Saying I need to "earn respect" is because other threats have not worked. He said that because my father was from Norway that he was ignorant and that he'd teach him how to earn a living in the U.S. He's either gay or a white supremacist and hates anyone that has lived in Europe but not an English speaking country.
