behavior of the climate
system on all time scales, including sudden regime transitions, as we documented in Rial, J., R.A. Pielke Sr., M. Beniston, M. Claussen, J. Canadell, P. Cox, H. Held, N. de Noblet - Ducoudre, R.

He also showed no understanding of how science assembles the collection of
observations and analyses, drawing on fundamental conservation laws of energy, etc. (of course, medicine does not have such laws — so maybe that is his problem), into a coherent picture of how the Earth is functioning (and how this matches how the planets are functioning, etc.) and so develops a paradigm for Earth
system behavior that incorporates theory,
observations, results of field and laboratory studies, paleoclimatic records, and so on.
When the strength of the additional mechanism is fixed by the requirement that the surface temperature much end up close to the actual
observations they may end up in adding a strong enough additional forcing to really change the
