Hence less than 0.8 W / m ² radiated from the surface do no longer reach the cosmos [26] and are carried away by the evaporation associated with a minuscule temperature increase of the surface: for evaporation at +6 W / m ² / °C, the required temperature increase would be 0.13 °C spread over the 200 years it would take to double the CO2 content of the air at the rate of +2 ppm / year.

[41] The water vapour content of the air between the top of the air and the altitude of pressure P (atm) is decreasing roughly like P4.5 [42]: hence 80 % of the total water vapour is between P = 1 and P = 0.75 near 2.3 km, and the total water content of the air closely follows the surface temperature.

As explained in the paragraph 4 above the four datasets: (1) Anthropic emissions, (2) their time varying delta13C, (3) CO2 content of the air and (4) delta13C of the air constrain the problem and leave little room for fiddling or ghost chasing.

The derivation if as follows: there are four datasets: (1) and (2) anthropic emissions and their time varying delta13C, (3) CO2 content of the air (since 1958) and (4) its delta13C (since about 1977 with some measurements before) The CO2 content of the air is made of an anthropic part (about 6 % now, much less in 1958) and of a natural part (94 % now, 98.4 % in 1958); the delta13C of the natural part is slowly shifting from the -6.5 pm of the little ice age (from corals and other proxies) to about -7 pm; is it this shift in the natural part that constrains the lifetime: non realistic values are obtained for too short and too long lifetimes.
