I know of no climate scientist who would do experiments fixing land temperatures and observing the atmospheric response, and with good reason.

Only an amateur with no concept of the material (Stokes) derivative and time - series aliasing would conclude that lack of serial observations, such as provided by land - station data, of diurnally varying temperature at fixed oceanic locations is «not a problem.»
From his blog, post # 11: «if you fix the temperature, as over the ocean here, you have to let the flux adjust to be consistent with that temperature — if you fix the flux (which is effectively zero over land) you have to let the temperature adjust to be consistent with that flux.»
With respect to the temperature, I might agree that choosing 1970 is a cherry - pick if you are talking about the land record in general, but looking at the whole record seems to be the fix for that, not looking only at 1940 to 1970, another, though opposite effect, cherry - pick.
OTEC plants can be land - based, «floating» (offshore fixed plants), or «grazing» plants that are allowed to drift through the areas of the ocean with high temperature differences, storing the energy they produce as liquid hydrogen.
This effective radiative forcing is the climate sensitivity calculation that incorporates temperature responses in the troposphere and land surface that are rapid compared to the ocean temperature response, using fixed - sea surface temperature experiments.
Shine et al. not only fix sea surface temperatures, but also fix land surface temperatures because temperatures over land and ocean are related.
Cartoon comparing (a) Fi, instantaneous forcing, (b) Fa, adjusted forcing, which allows stratospheric temperature to adjust, (c) Fg, fixed Tg forcing, which allows atmospheric temperature to adjust, (d) Fs, fixed SST forcing, which allows atmospheric temperature and land temperature to adjust, and (e) DTs, global surface air temperature calculated by the climate model in response to the climate forcing agent.»
The oceans were given an infinite heat capacity (fixed temperature), while land and ice had zero capacity.
It defines ERF similarly to Hansen's Fs, but with no adjustment made for the change in land temperature (which is modest when SST is fixed), and notes that ERF can also be estimated by regression, as for Fs *.
