Other factors would include: — albedo shifts (both from ice > water, and from increased biological activity, and from edge melt revealing more land, and from more old dust coming to the surface...); — direct
effect of CO2 on ice (the former weakens the latter); — increasing, and increasingly warm, rain fall on ice; — «stuck» weather systems bringing more and more warm tropical
air ever further toward the poles; — melting of sea ice shelf increasing mobility of glaciers; — sea water getting under parts of the ice sheets where the base is below sea level; — melt water lubricating the ice sheet base; — changes in ocean
currents -LRB-?)
We should make sure that the approximations converge, and if there are non-physical changes to make them converge (such as the incorrectly high viscosity of the

current models), the
effect of the non-physical changes should be thoroughly investigated and spelled out.
Should the ice sheet start to melt in a serious way (i.e. much more significantly than
current indications suggest), then lowering of the elevation of the ice sheet will induce more melting simply because of the

effects).

More clouds both drastically reduce energy input from the sun and simply slow release of what energy there is trapped in the lower troposphere, but the long term
effect would be a fall in average temperature because of the significantly reduced input power but the atmosphere's ability to cool is aided by
air current circulation whereby the warmer
air rises above those low clouds and that infra - red is more easily re-emitted into space, whereby the low clouds now block that re-emission from hitting the ground again to any significant degree.

air circulation systems
If the energy budget of the
air is maintained in balance by means of the weather systems neutralising changes in the power of the resistor
effect in the
air alone (more CO2) and changes in energy received from the oceans (ocean cycles) then the only remaining factor requiring consideration at any particular time is total throughput of energy from the sun (the electric
current in the resistor analogy).

Lansner and Pepke Pedersen (2018) point out that, due to the divergent rates of warming and cooling for land vs. ocean water, there is a significant difference in the range of temperature for the regions of the world influenced by their close proximity to oceans and coastal wind
currents (ocean
air affected, or OAA) and the inland regions of the world that are unaffected by ocean
air effects and coastal wind because they are sheltered by hills and mountains or located in valleys (ocean
air sheltered, or OAS).
The polar ice sheets serve as «thermostats» of global temperatures from which cold
