The paleoclimate record (8.2 kyr, and earlier «large lake collapses») shows a dramatic drop in surface temperatures for a substantial period of time when the ocean circulation shuts off or changes, but is that actually what would be expected under these warming conditions?
That line of thought would lead me to expect a decline in numbers of records — unless, of course, climate is actually warming.
So, they didn't actually simulate sea level changes, but instead estimated how much sea level rise they would expect from man - made global warming, and then used computer model predictions of temperature changes, to predict that sea levels will have risen by 0.8 - 2 metres by 2100.
No actually benben, we wouldn't expect both colder and hotter temperatures to come roiling out of the combination of a sun warmed rock, and frigid gas envelope chilling it, getting ever warmer.

He also points out that it is part of a negative feedback, and if the «hot spot» isn't there then global warming will actually be somewhat stronger than we expect.
«warming in the pipeline» usually assumes constant concentrations, not zero emissions (though if CO2 emissions were dropped to zero tomorrow, and all other emissions were held constant, I'd probably expect a little bit of warming before it turned over and started dropping) 2) Don't forget aerosols: they are following the Level 1 scenario from Wigley et al. 2009, and may actually dominate short - term temperature trends.

When we actually account for thermal inertia and negative forcings, we find that the amount of warming we have seen is consistent with what the IPCC would expect, but inconsistent with Lindzen and Choi 2009.
I made global maps over at GISS (July 97 - 98 and 09 - 10) and expected to see differences primarily in the Arctic, but it was actually in the Antarctic which is much warmer this ElNino than 97 - 98
Looking at nothing at all but the temperature trends, without any consideration of what is actually causing them, would remove entirely my whole basis for expecting the 30 year trend to remain comparatively strong warming.

Actually this is exactly what one would expect under a warming climate to judge from the past.
There are two prominent and undeniable examples of the models» insufficiencies: 1) climate models overwhelmingly expected much more warming to have taken place over the past several decades than actually occurred; and 2) the sensitivity of the earth's average temperature to increases in atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations (such as carbon dioxide) averages some 60 percent greater in the IPCC's climate models than it does in reality (according to a large and growing collection of evidence published in the scientific literature).
captd, the hot spot is something that comes with tropical ocean heating, which is actually a slower process than expected, possibly because elsewhere is warming faster than expected (land, Arctic).
I would expect to see about one degree C of man - made warming between now and 2100, and believe most of the cries that «we are already seeing catastrophic climate changes» are in fact panics driven by normal natural variation (most supposed trends, say in hurricanes or tornadoes or heat waves, can't actually be found when one looks at the official data).

Now, it may be that along with this longer interglacial comes the idea that over shorter timescales (of, say, 10000 or 20000 years) we would actually expect some a little warming although I haven't heard this case made... and would expect that any such effect would be quite modest.
If the period prior to 1940 was mostly due to «natural variation» then climate sensitivity to forcings must be higher than expected and CO2 warming will actually be worse than expected.
