Beyond
basic subjects such as climate and weather, this site from the U.K. Department of Environment, Food & Rural Affairs covers a wide range of pressing
atmospheric science issues including acid rain, air quality, climate change, global warming and ozone depletion.
Despite your insistence otherwise, you evince at best a shallow understanding of
basic principles of climate
science (hint: while radiative forcing is known to be at least partially controlled by
atmospheric CO2, no «natural», i.e. internal source of variability has been demonstrated that could drive a global temperature trend for half a century), as well as an inability to recognize genuine expertise.
The exception is finding reliable data from the past that clearly violates the
basics of current
atmospheric or oceanic
science.
John Carter August 8, 2014 at 12:58 am chooses to state his position on the greenhouse effect in the following 134 word sentence: «But given the [1]
basics of the greenhouse effect, the fact that with just a very small percentage of greenhouse gas molecules in the air this effect keeps the earth about 55 - 60 degrees warmer than it would otherwise be, and the fact that through easily recognizable if [2] inadvertent growing patterns we have at this point probably at least [3] doubled the total collective amount in heat absorption and re-radiation capacity of long lived
atmospheric greenhouse gases (nearly doubling total that of the [4] leading one, carbon dioxide, in the modern era), to [5] levels not collectively seen on earth in several million years — levels that well predated the present ice age and extensive earth surface ice conditions — it goes [6] against
basic physics and
basic geologic
science to not be «predisposed» to the idea that this would ultimately impact climate.»
Basic physical
science considerations, exploratory climate modeling, and the impacts of volcanic aerosols on climate all suggest that SWCE could partially compensate for some effects — particularly net global warming — of increased
atmospheric CO2.
Where the believers in dangerous global warming are so ignorant of the very
basics of life and of
science at any level they can not even give the
atmospheric component they want banned its correct name but use the name of the element which is the basis of ALL life on this planet that of «Carbon» as the item that is to be eliminated from the planet..
But as I have outlined above, few have a deeper understanding of the
basic science of climate than I. Almost all big modern telescopes use my sodium guidestar to correct for
atmospheric turbulence.
Gavin Schmidt, the current director of GISS and collaborator on the NeXSS effort highlighted the connections between the new effort and GISS's roots: «The study of planetary climates, wherever they are, involves the
basic sciences of radiative transfer,
atmospheric composition and circulation.
But despite what you call the «embryonic» state of climate
science, between the laws of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and
atmospheric chemistry, the
basic dimensions of the climate system are pretty well understood.
While everyone else was enjoying a beverage, cookies, and conversation, Sherry had been off in the corner for about 30 minutes talking with the questioner, explaining
basic principles of
atmospheric science, how the greenhouse effect works, etc..
