His analysis of the idea of molecular structure
from «first principles» shows that if one starts
from a description of the molecule as an isolated,
dynamical system consisting of the number of electrons and nuclei implied by the stoichiometric formula that interact via electromagnetic forces, one can not even calculate the most important parameters in chemistry, namely, those that describe the molecular structure.8

Four years later, another team of astronomers using the 2.5 - meter Isaac Newton Telescope at Roque de los Muchachos Observatory on La Palma (and relying on evidence supplied by their own
dynamical models of Sagittarius and on preliminary results
from the international Sloan Digital Sky Survey team) announced that they had found an excess of young stars belonging to a stellar
system located at 183,000 ly (56,000 pc)
from the center of the Milky Way.
There may be reason to strongly suspect that in any sufficiently complicated
dynamical system model (such as climate) with stochastic parameters (e.g., exactly when and where a lightning strike starts a major wildfire or a major submarine earthquake perturbs ocean circulation in a region or a major volcanic eruption introduces stratospheric aerosols), it is almost certain that any given run of the model will have periods of significant deviation
from the mean of multiple runs.
«In particular, it is not obvious, as of today, whether it is more efficient to approach the problem of constructing a theory of climate dynamics starting
from the framework of hamiltonian mechanics and quasi-equilibrium statistical mechanics or taking the point of view of dissipative chaotic
dynamical systems, and of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics, and even the authors of this review disagree.
The fact is as soon as there is any external perturbation of a chaotic
system not accounted for in the

system from one path in phase space to another.
From a general perspective the analysis of circle maps thermodynamics has revealed the fact that physically interesting
dynamical systems often exhibit mixtures of hyperbolic and marginal stabilities.
Citing a seven year old citation of what was then a seven year old citation of something to irrelevant to the paper in question, then making insupportable assertions about inevitability (which, ironic, as complex
dynamical systems pretty much argue against the precept of predetermination), and ending with an implied causal relationship
from the symptoms of Forcings to the Forcings themselves, served with a dollop of ad hom..
This «statistical coherence» can be regarded as a kind of organization of a complicated
dynamical system, and identifying its statistically stable characteristics is similar to the notion of coherence understood as self - organization of multicomponent
systems that results

from the Paleogene, and a little knowledge of nonlinear

Although the chain of the actual physical mechanisms generating these cycles is still obscure, (I have argued in my previous papers that the available climatic data would suggest an astronomical modulation of the cloud cover that would induce small oscillations in the albedo that, consequently, would cause oscillations in the surface temperature also by modulating ocean oscillations), the detected cycles can surely be considered
from a purely geometrical point of view as a description of the
dynamical evolution of the climate
system.
In fact, the theory of differentiable
dynamical systems — as we know and love it
from the work of G.D. Birkhoff, J. Hadamard, H. Poincaré, and, more recently, E.N. Lorenz, D. Ruelle, and S. Smale, among many others — applies to autonomous
systems, in which neither the forcing nor the coefficients depend explicitly on time.

dynamical downscaling studies (Bender et al. 2010; Knutson et al. 2013), we attempted to address both of these limitations by letting the Atlantic basin regional model of Knutson et al. (2008) provide the overall storm frequency information, and then downscaling each individual storm
from the regional model study into the GFDL hurricane prediction
system.
It appears to me, caveat as above, that AGW has created a lifeless
system in thinking in this «energy balance» much as it has done with CO2 with its destruction of the
dynamical system which is all life by thinking of plants merely as «carbon sinks», somewhere merely to store CO2;
from which the used to be known fact that CO2 was food for all living carbon life forms is practically unknown and now at the absurd reasoning
from not knowing it, that it can defy gravity and stay removed and out of reach
from the carbon life forms which evolved
from its property of being available at ground level.
