One common measure of climate sensitivity is the amount by which global mean surface temperature would change once the system has settled into a new equilibrium following a doubling of the pre-industrial CO2 concentration.

I think it's a mistake to refer to changes in global average surface air temperatures as if they were definitive measures of the change to the climate system.

My point is that for periods as short as a decade, air temperatures are not a precise measure of the heat in the climate system.

Which implies that since the late» 40's - early» 50's we have had a data collection system deployed capable of measuring and tracking the annual TEMPERATURE of the top 2000 meters of the oceans of the world (necessary to calculate its heat content)-- all of them — with a precision and accuracy in the millidegree range.

steven you write «Climate sensitivity is a measure of how responsive the temperature of the climate system is to a change in the radiative forcing.»

I stated above («Disadvantages») that the proposed system does not completely remove the need for adjustments to measured temperatures.

If the measured temperatures at the two points on that day were say 12 and 17 deg C, then the system's estimated temperatures would use the model with its ends shifted up or down to match the start and end points:

In the end, the system and the model help each other (the system «learns»), but the measured temperatures still reign supreme.

One of the early objectives of the new system would be to refine the model so that it better matched the measured temperatures, thus giving better estimated temperatures.

Whatever happened to the concept of simply measuring the temperature at times and places on the earth surface that conform to the sampling requirements of standard sampled data system theory; i.e. Nyquist.

Forgetting the various quibbles about reliability, accuracy and precision — and whether we can accept the hypothesis of any sort of level off — temperature is such a remote measure from the supposed causes of the effect in a large and complex system, and our systematic efforts to capture sufficient data to support either case so inadequate, that within our lifetimes we will always be Uncertain if we're only looking at thermometers, seems patently clear to me.

Dana, I think you are pushing in the right direction with this; heat content is a much more direct measure of the underlying changes to the climate system than average air temperatures and climate science communicators should make heat content their first response to the suggestion that global warming is something that waxes and (allegedly, recently) wanes.

Sea surface temperature (SST) measured from Earth Observation Satellites in considerable spatial detail and at high frequency, is increasingly required for use in the context of operational monitoring and forecasting of the ocean, for assimilation into coupled ocean - atmosphere model systems and for applications in short - term numerical weather prediction and longer term climate change detection.

Dr. John Christy, director of the Earth System Science Center at the University of Alabama in Huntsville, says the first six months of this year were the second warmest since the satellite - measured temperature era began in 1979, and satellite - measured temperature is more accurate than temperature measured at weather stations on Earth.

The study claims to have measured feedback, and have found feedback to temperature changes in the natural climate system to be negative — opposite of the assumption of strong positive feedback in climate models.
