The
link between increased
atmospheric greenhouse gas and global temperatures underlies the theory of global
warming, explained the authors.
While the conditions in the geological past are useful indicators in suggesting climate and
atmospheric conditions only vary within a a certain range (for example, that life has existed for over 3 billion years indicates that the oxygen level of the atmosphere has stayed between about 20 and 25 % throughout that time), I also think some skeptics are too quick to suggest the lack of correlation between temperature and CO2 during the last 550 million years falsifies the
link between CO2 and
warming (too many differences in conditions to allow any such a conclusion to be drawn — for example the Ordovician with high CO2 and an ice age didn't have any terrestrial life).
Turbulence is
linked to
atmospheric jet streams and these are likely to be strengthened by man - made global
warming.
Acidification is independent of
warming of the atmosphere but the two are
linked through the underlying cause of elevated
atmospheric carbon dioxide.
«We see some trends that are
linked with changes in
atmospheric conditions, such as more water content in the atmosphere due to global
warming,» Hoppe says.
This is also why global
warming alarmists try to do their best to quench anything related to the the solar variability → cosmic ray flux →
atmospheric ionization → low altitude cloud cover
link which by now has ample evidence for support, both empirical and experimental.
Kent Moore, a professor of
atmospheric physics at the University of Toronto, who published a study in 2016
linking the loss of sea ice to these
warm events in the Arctic, said a number of factors may have contributed to the latest
warming episode.
«It is not surprising then that global
warming can be
linked directly to the observed increase in
atmospheric carbon dioxide and to human industrial activity in general.»
To consider the claims of «greenhouse
warming» from one arena of SCIENCE then, if you also look at the
atmospheric absorbance of energy (see
link below), you will see how relevant the behavior of
atmospheric water actually is in shaping the scavenging of IrR (especially Microwave Spectrum) energy BEFORE surface incidence is achieved.
How hurricanes develop also depends on how the local atmosphere responds to changes in local sea surface temperatures, and this
atmospheric response depends critically on the cause of the change.23, 24 For example, the atmosphere responds differently when local sea surface temperatures increase due to a local decrease of particulate pollution that allows more sunlight through to
warm the ocean, versus when sea surface temperatures increase more uniformly around the world due to increased amounts of human - caused heat - trapping gases.18, 25,26,27 So the
link between hurricanes and ocean temperatures is complex.
Reductions in some short - lived human - induced emissions that contribute to
warming, such as black carbon (soot) and methane, could reduce some of the projected
warming over the next couple of decades, because, unlike carbon dioxide, these gases and particles have relatively short
atmospheric lifetimes.The amount of
warming projected beyond the next few decades is directly
linked to the cumulative global emissions of heat - trapping gases and particles.
The researchers assert that the record - breaking sea ice loss from summer 2012, combined with the unusual
atmospheric phenomena observed in late October, appear to be
linked to global
warming.
Yet the actual emissions reduction target identified by South Africa does not explain how it is quantitatively
linked to an
atmospheric concentration goal that will achieve a
warming limit or why its emissions reduction target represents South Africa's fair share of safe global emissions.
(The only one I can think of, by the only really solidly qualified contrarian, Lindzen, who also claimed that tobacco wasn't
linked to lung cancer, came up with an Iris theory that has been thoroughly repudiated (recent studies have in fact continued to strongly show increased
atmospheric moisture), but his theory of a significant enough decrease to keep the earth from significantly
warming at the same time this radical shift toward lack of global cloud cover (and far more drought everywhere?)
Airborne data showed the ice shelf was up to 492 feet (150 meters) thinner when the
warmer water was present, allowing Bindschadler's team to establish a direct
link between the rate of ice shelf melting and
atmospheric wind speed.
Warming is linked to increases in precipitation extremes partly because of the physical effect of warming on atmospheric cond
Warming is
linked to increases in precipitation extremes partly because of the physical effect of

warming on

It also
links the cycles to a natural 50 percent increase in
atmospheric carbon dioxide during the 10,000 year period leading up to the peak of all recurring 116,000 year mega global
warming cycles.
Although some nations have acknowledged their ethical duties to base their INDC on ethically justifiable criteria, almost all INDC submissions have not explained how specific emissions reductions commitments
link to a specific desired
atmospheric ghg concentration levels and its associated carbon budget that will provide some level of confidence that a
warming limit will be achieved nor why their ghg emissions reductions commitment is fair as a matter of distributive justice.
Climate scientists Charles Greene and Bruce Monger of Cornell University, writing earlier this year in Oceanography, provided evidence that Arctic icemelts
linked to global
warming contribute to the very
atmospheric pattern that sent the frigid burst down across Canada and the eastern U.S.
Furthermore due to the
atmospheric warming effect of soot, it has been cited as «a major factor in triggering extreme weather in eastern India & Bangladesh,» as well as being
linked to decreases in rainfall in central India.
There is a substantial case for
linking anthropogenic impacts of Antarctic stratospheric ozone depletion (due to CFCs) and greenhouse
warming on the southern hemisphere
atmospheric circulations and Australian climate.
«One out of 10 record - breaking rainfall events observed globally in the past 30 years can only be explained if the long - term
warming is taken into account,» says co-author Dim Coumou, a PIK researcher into the
links between
atmospheric circulation and extreme weather events.
However, the lack of an apparent robust statistical correlation
linking observed temperature to observed
atmospheric CO2 makes the case for CO2 causation for the observed
warming weak, and the case for AGW as a potential threat even weaker.
