The whole CAGW — GHG scare is based
on the obvious fallacy of putting the effect before the cause.As a simple (not exact) analogy controlling CO2 levels to control temperature is like trying to lower the temperature of an electric hot plate under a boiling pan of water by capturing and sequestering the steam coming off the top.A corollory to this idea is that the whole idea of a simple
climate sensitivity to CO2 is nonsense and the sensitivity equation has no physical meaning unless you already know what the natural controls
on energy inputs are already ie the extent of the natural
variability.
While it is theoretically possible for human and animal activities to affect the
climate on Earth, the main factor causing fluctuations in temperatures
on this planet, as
on Mars, is
variability in
energy output from the Sun.
He served from 1999 to 2006
on the Joint Scientific Committee of the World
Climate Research Programme (WCRP), and he was co-chair of the CLIVAR (
Climate Variability and Predictability) Scientific Steering Group from 1996 - 1999, chaired the WCRP Observation and Assimilation Panel from 2004 to 2010 and now chairs the Global
Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX) scientific steering group.
The positive
energy imbalance in 2005 — 2010 confirms that the effect of solar
variability on climate is much less than the effect of human - made greenhouse gases.
Despite the difficulties of calibration that makes an absolute radiative imbalance measurement impossible — the anomalies data contains essential information
on climate variability that can be used to understand and close out the global
energy budget — changes in which are largely OHC.
Thanks for publishing this, there are folks who denigrated the work of scientists that claimed a solar -
climate (temperature) link because the
variability in solar
energy output just wasn't enough to explain the temperature swings, and perhaps they now realize that there could be another mechanism - similar to a transistor where small changes in gate voltage can affect large changes in power transmission - whereby solar activity can create significant effects
on temperature.
If we have some time to prepare, the combination of lowering all the discussed emissions, utilizing current technology to implement alternative
energy sources, and engineering new twists
on said technology to both continue lowering emissions and adapting to global
climate changes as well, we may be able to guide our response sets to outside, artificial selective pressures in conjunction with natural ones; natural, internal
variability and external forcings / feedbacks.

As for evidence that the oceans do indeed vary the rate at which they release
energy to the air with a consequent effect
on climate variability see here:
Further, we refine the
energy budget methodology for determining
climate sensitivity to minimize the impact of natural internal
variability on the estimate of
climate sensitivity.

Another external influence
on Earth's
climate is the
variability in the amount of
energy the Sun emits.
One of the objectives was to provide evidence of the decadal
climate variability and predictability in the Nordic Region with the aim to assess the impact
on forest growth, and
energy production and demand.
And if the ocean bulk were taking some of the
energy from extra DLR it would supply such an enormous buffering effect that the effects of human emissions
on the
climate would be deferred for millennia and would still be swamped by natural
variability even then.
A new paper by Andrew Dessler et al. claims, based
on 100 simulations of the historical period (1850 to date) by the MPI ‑ ESM1.1
climate model, that estimates of
climate sensitivity using the
energy - budget method can vary widely due to internal
climate system
variability.
The total
energy change over a solar cycle is quite small, which has led many to argue that solar
variability has little impact
on climate.
