QUestion: Since we can
calculate within a
factor of 50 % or so the stable temperature of the earth just by looking at the concentration of green house gases on the earth and no other
factors it does not make any sense to me to talk of
feedbacks as having any impact other than transiently.
However my medical expertise suggests that while
calculating confidence levels for a series of points on a time graph is relatively easy, similar calculations for correlation
factors is not, particularly when there are many inter-related effects and sometimes positive or negative
feedback links between these
factors.
