The fact is the atmosphere emits energy (EM radiation) in proportion to the fourth power of its temperature.

The point was to show that there was little difference between using a linear function for modeling thermal emission and a function which varies as the fourth power of the temperature.

The actual radiative heat transfer is, ideally, proportional to the fourth power of the temperature, and the analysis must be based on this.

see fred «'' Jeff, the 1C value for a forcing of 3.7 W / m ^ 2 (the canonical value for doubled CO2 based on radiative transfer equations and spectroscopic data) is derived by differentiating the Stefan - Boltzmann equation that equates flux (F) to a constant (sigma) x the fourth power of temperature.
