There have been some misunderstanding regarding the enhanced warming in the upper troposphere — mistakenly taken as being inconsistent with the climate models, or taken as the «finger print» of GHE, rather than as a plausible consequence predicted for an enhanced GHE due to the perturbation of the hydrological cycle (the «finger print» - misconception assumes that the models are perfect).
The simple conceptual model also provides a link between the GHE and the hydrological cycle and offers explanations for some issues that have been up for popular public debate, showing why the issue of» saturation» is not relevant and why a» hiatus» is not in violation with an increased greenhouse effect.
When done so, proxy records and climate models indicate that the response to past global warming was profound, with evidence for global reorganisation of the hydrological cycle and profound local increases and decreases in rainfall; combined with elevated temperatures and terrestrial vegetation change, this appears to often result in warming - enhanced soil organic matter oxidation, chemical weathering and nutrient cycling.
