Recent warming is mostly due to natural climate factors…only 1/3 is attributable to the rising GHG concentrations. CO2’s impact on warming is likely wildly overstated. A recent paper by Ad Huijser, “Global Warming and the ‘impossible’ Radiation Imbalance,” published in Science of Climate Change, presents a detailed analysis that challenges the widely held assumption that rising greenhouse […]| NoTricksZone
by Nic Lewis The determination of equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS)—the long-term warming response to doubled atmospheric CO2 concentrations—remains one of the most crucial yet challenging problems in climate science. Recent exchanges in the literature have highlighted both the complexity of … Continue reading → The post Addressing misconceptions about Climate Sensitivity research: a Response to recent Criticisms appeared first on Climate Etc..| Climate Etc.
A pdf version of this article is available here An important paper, Wang et al.[1], on the relationships between cloud feedback, climate sensitivity (ECS) and aerosol-cloud interaction in the latest generation of global climate models (CMIP6) has just been published. The key conclusion of the paper is: The seeming consistency of global-mean temperature evolution between [...]| Nicholas Lewis
By Frank Bosse and Nic Lewis A recent article by Roy Spencer was (strongly) criticized by Gavin Schmidt over at “Real Climate”. In the summary Gavin S. wrote: “Spencer’s shenanigans are designed t…| Climate Etc.
