In the
absence of mortality threat, growth
rates of damselflies increased with warming until about 23.5 °C and
then began to decline, a typical unimodal response to changes in temperature.
The chronic
absence rate goal for 2016 - 17 is 11 percent,
then decreasing by 2 percentage points each year through 2018 - 19.
The difference lies in the
absence of water vapour in the descending column which
then warms at a different
rate to the cooling in ascent.
If convection is enhanced for any reason
then the warmed gases will reach higher before condensing because the speed of uplift distorts the lapse
rate locally but once the uplift is cut off as it must be on a rotating sphere illuminated by a point source of light (the sun) the heights revert to what they would have been in the
absence of the uplift.
If the is a change in forcing dF,
then in the
absence of any temperature response, and if the system was initially in energy balance, the change in forcing will produce a change in system heat uptake
rate dN, such that
Importantly, if you were right to say that the warm spot «is a prediction that follows from the basic physics of moist adiabatic lapse
rate theory and is expected independent of the mechanism causing the warming»
then its
absence would be evidence for
absence of warming.
Indeed: —
Absence of accelerating warming — Existence of 30 years long cooling periods [1880 — 1910]
then [1940 to 1970]-- Similitude of warming
rates (about +0,15 °C per decade) during both [1910 — 1940] & [1970 to 2000] periods, whereas anthropogenic CO2 emissions have been multiplied by 5 here between, formally disproved AGW theory and IPCC claims.
In the
absence of absorption of terrestrial radiation by the atmosphere (and with the other caveats about still having the same albedo and such), that average temperature would have to be 255 K at the surface because of radiative balance and
then the temperature would decrease with height at the lapse
rate from there.
