Well, that seems to have worked for a while, but as temperatures rise due to higher CO2 concentrations plants become subject to both heat and drought stress, and so we have that sink working less well than it has in the past — which is a feedback.

The reduction of heat - trapping gas (greenhouse gas) emissions is stimulated by lowering existing subsidies that have the effect of raising emissions (such as subsidies to fossil fuel use) or by providing subsidies for practices that reduce emissions or enhance sinks (e.g. for insulation of buildings or for planting trees).

His reference to the oceans» role as a sink for CO2 and heat is significant in the present debate about the apparent slight slow - down in the pace of atmospheric warming and the likelihood that the heat is going into the oceans instead.

This is a fortuitous thing, for if there was not this alteration of the energy flow, with the oceans absorbing more heat being the excellent heat sink they are, we'd have a much faster warming troposphere as greenhouse gases increase.

So it's all gases at greatest density will be doing the same thing around the planet at the same time (*) and as these change with differences in density in the play between gravity and pressure and kinetic and potential from greatest near the surface to more rarified, less dense and absent any kinetic to write home about the higher one goes, then, energy conservation intact, the hotter will rise and cool because losing kinetic energy means losing temperature, thus cooling they which began with the closest in density and kinetic energy as a sort of band of brothers near the surface will rise and cool at the same time whereupon they'll all come down together colder but wiser that great heights don't make for more comfort and giving up their heat will sink displacing the hotter now in their place when they first went travelling.

As the dominant reservoir for heat, the oceans are critical for measuring the radiation imbalance of the planet and the surface layer of the oceans plays the role of thermostat and heat source / sink for the lower atmosphere.

They also include models for things like: entry into and exit from Ice Ages, the effect of the Earth's orbit on climate, the earth's climate history on scales of thousands to millions of years, ocean - atmosphere couplings (e.g. heat transfer, CO2 sinks), decadal phenomena such as ENSO and the PDO.

Over the land, the TCR is much closer to the eventual ECS, as little heat capacity exists for the heat to transiently sink into.

How about this logic... if the ocean is an enormous heat sink and ate their warming, and this was not anticipated or built into the models AT ALL, then the models are all cr @p, the huge sensitivity to C02 (amplification) is in the same crock of poo (i.e. the ocean provides damping and there is no amplification), and there really is no such thing as CAGW... there's only 134 pathetic excuses for climate models that are all wrong because the scientists didn't consider that 75 - ish percent of the globe was covered with water.

Similar to the Leroy (1999) system, it adds total surface area (of heat sources and heat sinks) to the distance measurement as an additional metric for determining station site rating.
