Cause cannot follow effect

Bud Bromley | January 23, 2016 Abstract: “The hypothesis that the increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide is related to observable changes in the climate is tested using modern methods of time-series analysis. The results confirm that average global temperature is increasing, and that temperature and atmospheric carbon dioxide are significantly correlated over the past thirty years. Changes in carbon dioxide content lag those in temperature by five months.” (Note date: 22 February 1990) http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1990Natur.343..709K Nature 343, 709 – 714 (22 February 1990); doi:10.1038/343709a0 Coherence established between atmospheric carbon dioxide and global temperature CYNTHIA KUO, CRAIG LINDBERG & DAVID J.

Cooling of Atmosphere Due to CO2 Emission

G. V. CHILINGAR, L. F. KHILYUK, and O. G. SOROKHTIN Introduction Traditional anthropogenic theory of currently observed global warming states that release of carbon dioxide into atmosphere (partially as a result of utilization of fossil fuels) leads to an increase in atmospheric temperature because the molecules of CO2 (and other greenhouse gases) absorb the infrared radiation from the Earth’s surface. This statement is based on the Arrhenius hypothesis, which was never verified (Arrhenius, 1896). The proponents of this theory take into consideration only one component of heat transfer in atmosphere, i.e., radiation. Yet, in the dense Earth’s troposphere with the …

97% Consensus is false propaganda – Scientists for 100 years, can’t decide between warming or new ice age?

They say there is a 97% consensus on climate change. What is the consensus, exactly? Answer by James Matkin, former Director at Bank of Canada (1992-1995) Updated Jan 24 Bunk. There is no such consensus. In fact there was a serious divide between the IPCC scientists and the UN on the science of human caused climate change. The UN played the scientists for fools! The 97% derives from a survey sent to 10,257 people of which the 3,146 respondents were further whittled down to 77 self selected climate “scientists “ of which 75 were judged to agree that human induced …

Is the airborne fraction of anthropogenic CO 2 emissions increasing?

Wolfgang Knorr Received 18 August 2009; revised 21 September 2009; accepted 23 September 2009; published 7 November 2009. [ 1 ] Several recent studies have highlighted the possibility that the oceans and terrestrial ecosystems have started loosing part of their ability to sequester a large proportion of the anthropogenic CO2 emissions. This is an important claim, because so far only about 40% of those emissions have stayed in the atmosphere, which has prevented additional climate change. This study re-examines the available atmospheric CO2 and emissions data including their uncertainties. It is shown that with those uncertainties, the trend in the …

Global CO₂ emissions from cement production

Robbie M. Andrew CICERO Center for International Climate Research, Oslo 0349, Norway Correspondence:Robbie M. Andrew (robbie.andrew@cicero.oslo.no) Published: 26 January 2018 Abstract.The global production of cement has grown very rapidly in recent years, and after fossil fuels andland-use change, it is the third-largest source of anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide. The required data for estimating emissions from global cement production are poor, and it has been recognised that some global estimates are significantly inflated. Here we assemble a large variety of available datasets and prioritise official data and emission factors, including estimates submitted to the UNFCCC plus new estimates for China …

NO EXPERIMENTAL EVIDENCE FOR THE SIGNIFICANT ANTHROPOGENIC CLIMATE CHANGE

A new study by researchers at Turku University in Finland found that the human contribution to a rise of 0.1°C in global temperatures over the last century is just 0.01°C. The paper, titled ‘No experimental evidence for the significant anthropogenic climate change’ was published by Jyrki Kauppinen and Pekka Malmi. The study found that, “During the last hundred years the temperature is increased about 0.1°C because of carbon dioxide. The human contribution was about 0.01°C.” Kauppinen and Malmi conclude that global temperatures are controlled primarily by cloud cover and that “only a small part” of the increased carbon dioxide concentration …

Human CO2 Emissions Have Little Effect on Atmospheric CO2

edberry.com Abstract The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) agrees human CO2 is only 5 percent and natural CO2 is 95 percent of the CO2 inflow into the atmosphere. The ratio of human to natural CO2 in the atmosphere must equal the ratio of the inflows. Yet IPCC claims human CO2 has caused all the rise in atmospheric CO2 above 280 ppm, which is now 130 ppm or 32 percent of today’s atmospheric CO2. To cause the human 5 percent to become 32 percent in the atmosphere, the IPCC model treats human and natural CO2 differently, which is …

RESPONSIVENESS OF ATMOSPHERIC CO2 TO FOSSIL FUEL EMISSIONS: UPDATED

JAMAL MUNSHI Date: July 2017, Revised 7/7/2017 ABSTRACT: The IPCC carbon budget concludes that changes in atmospheric CO2 are driven by fossil fuel emissions on a year by year basis. A testable implication of the validity of this carbon budget is that changes in atmospheric CO2 should be correlated with fossil fuel emissions at an annual time scale net of long term trends. A test of this relationship with insitu CO2 data from Mauna Loa 19582016 and flask CO2 data from twenty three stations around the world 19672015 is presented. The test fails to show that annual changes in atmospheric …

On the incident solar radiation in CMIP5 models

AGU100 Linjiong Zhou, Minghua Zhang, Qing Bao, Yimin Liu First published: 05 March 2015 https://doi.org/10.1002/2015GL063239 Abstract Annual incident solar radiation at the top of atmosphere should be independent of longitudes. However, in many Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 5 (CMIP5) models, we find that the incident radiation exhibited zonal oscillations, with up to 30 W/m2 of spurious variations. This feature can affect the interpretation of regional climate and diurnal variation of CMIP5 results. This oscillation is also found in the Community Earth System Model. We show that this feature is caused by temporal sampling errors in the calculation of the solar …
