First direct observation of carbon dioxide's greenhouse effect at Earth's surface

Confirmed at last. All they have to do now is reproduce the results at many more locations. Now all they need to do is replicate their results at other locations. Any deniers care to respond?

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0225132103.htm

Scientists have observed an increase in carbon dioxide's greenhouse effect at Earth's surface for the first time. They measured atmospheric carbon dioxide's increasing capacity to absorb thermal radiation emitted from Earth's surface over an 11-year period at two locations in North America. They attributed this upward trend to rising carbon dioxide levels from fossil fuel emissions. More at the link.

Hmm, I just tried it and it works for me. Just go to science daily. The article is on linked on the home page.

That was handy information but I suspect that most people discussing this topic are already familiar with those sources and more. Be that as it may, welcome to the forum. It needs more active participants like you.

I could't get to the article either. Perhaps the author of the thread could post a working link.

If I recall correctly, this is an old article in which someone at a polar station observed CO2 absorbing IR outdoors (not so big a deal) and now the claim is that that alone is "greenhouse effect."

If that's the case then it wouldn't matter at how many different locations those same results are observed. It also renders meaningless the term "greenhouse effect" just to claim it exists.

The argument, generally, is not about if CO2 does or does not absorb IR but if this is also done by water vapor which, generally, would mena that any such effect is already at maximum over most of the world.

Very dry areas such as the poles will not have much water vapor.

The next question would be to show how sensitive the effect is to increases in CO2 in situations where there is plentiful water vapor.

Then all you have to do is find the slightest support for the positive feedback effects that would make the IPCC's models work. Good luck on that.

It is interesting to see that this "proof" of global warming did not survive the scrutiny of the world. That is a decent reason to bring it back.

Also, why talk to me then?

For a guy who hates the discussion "environment" of this site, you sure post a lot here.

For a guy who hates the site administrator and the "denialist trolls" he presumably harbors, you sure apparently like it here.

For a guy who has long ago effectively stated "I'm outta here, and I'll refer 'denialist trolls' to this site"...you sure do post a lot here as if you've never left.

For a guy who thinks this site is "dead"...you alone are keeping it alive with your voluminous posting. In fact, you've posted more than anyone else.

OK, I found the article. I noticed this section of the article.

The scientists measured atmospheric carbon dioxide's contribution to radiative forcing at two sites, one in Oklahoma and one on the North Slope of Alaska, from 2000 to the end of 2010. Radiative forcing is a measure of how much the planet's energy balance is perturbed by atmospheric changes. Positive radiative forcing occurs when the Earth absorbs more energy from solar radiation than it emits as thermal radiation back to space.


We're done. This is gibberish, intended for the scientifically brain-dead. This is nothing but one big violation of physics, i.e. a Global Warming miracle!

Global Warming is a cult of personality. Look how you rush to tell me credentials of people apparently uttering gibberish, as if sufficient credentials somehow transform gibberish into science. How many credentials of Catholic clergy would get you to convert to Christianity? Hmmm?

At the moment, you agree with me completely. You have not selected any conclusions from that article that are validly derived from any science that you have reviewed and understand. At the moment, as far as you know everything in that article is complete gibberish that has no standing in science.

The article we're talking about:

http://newscenter.lbl.gov/2015/02/25/co2-greenhouse-effect-increase/

reports on a recent paper published in Nature in which the authors explain how they measured the changes in downwelling IR radiation over the decade 2000 - 2010 and showed that these changes closely matched changes in CO2 concentration. It was, if you like, a failed attempt to falsify the greenhouse effect; as it turned out, their measurements were in close agreement with the predictions of greenhouse theory.

Now, although my PhD in physics is not in this field, it seems to me a perfectly valid experiment, and I see no reason to doubt their methodology. Nor, presumably, did those experts in the field who reviewed the paper before it was published in Nature.

Despite this, you claim, without giving any justification, that the article is gibberish. I repeat: Why do you think it is gibberish? Unless you can actually substantiate your opinion, then your opinion is worthless. That, my friend, is what makes the difference between a sceptic and a denier.

You have called upon the authority of others to justify your opinion. This is right after you said you do not 'worship' them (meaning their authority may be called into question).

By doing so, you have demonstrated that you are perfectly willing to let others do their thinking for you, meaning you are not thinking for yourself.

IBdaMann is not required to present any kind of evidence since he is not promoting any new theory. Supporting evidence is not even required to justify a new theory. Only a single solid piece of evidence is required to falsify a theory.

It is you that is trying to promote a theory. A theory that he and I have shot down numerous times with actual evidence from verifiable sources, and through the means of established principles of thermodynamics, classical mechanics, and relativity.

If the burden of proof is anywhere, it is upon you to justify how these existing theories must be adjusted.
