Although the exact causes for ice ages, and the glacial cycles within them, have not been proven, they are most likely the result of a complicated dynamic interaction between such things as solar output, distance of the Earth from the sun, position and height of the continents, ocean circulation, and the composition of the atmosphere.

It plays a crucial role in the carbon cycle — the exchange of carbon dioxide between the atmosphere and the oceans — and in the buffering of blood and other bodily fluids.

By comparing modelled and observed changes in such indices, which include the global mean surface temperature, the land - ocean temperature contrast, the temperature contrast between the NH and SH, the mean magnitude of the annual cycle in temperature over land and the mean meridional temperature gradient in the NH mid-latitudes, Braganza et al. (2004) estimate that anthropogenic forcing accounts for almost all of the warming observed between 1946 and 1995 whereas warming between 1896 and 1945 is explained by a combination of anthropogenic and natural forcing and internal variability.

Dan, Could not agree more, Interestingly enough, our oceans have been happily taking part in the Carbon cycle since time immemorial, I wonder if the acid ocean alarmists are prepared to draw a correlation between the proportion of CO2 in our atmosphere and the amount needed to make the oceans «harmfully» acidic.

Once CO2 is emitted, its EFFECT (due to cycling of heat between the atmosphere and oceans) is on the order of at least decades.

However, ENSO is an oceanic cycle which merely moves heat around between oceans and the surface, and thus can not cause a long - term warming trend.

It also gives us a degree of seperateness / independence between ocean and solar cycling that goes a long way to explaining the correlation problems which would then most likely arise from phasing differences between solar and oceanic variations.
