The longwave part of the net radiative change includes the «greenhouse effect» (i.e. the atmosphere radiating energy downward) and the longwave feedback (
i.e. warmer things radiate more energy away).
Not exact matches
As prevention seems to be the best solution to most
things, here is my best advice (
i.e. guidance, encouragement, not evidence - based): Don't wait too long (say past 6 or 8 weeks) because babies get to a point where Mama's
warm body is really the source of food and all other substitutes fail miserably — that is not the easiest time to introduce a piece of silicone.
In selecting these colours I had in mind two
things - the
warm / cool influence in each of these and the depth of tone
i.e. the lightness or darkness.
The
warming trends in looking at numerous 100 year temperature plots from northern and high elevation climate stations...
i.e. warming trends in annual mean and minimum temperature averages, winter monthly means and minimums and especially winter minimum temperatures and dewpoints... indicate climate
warming that is being driven by the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere — no visible effects from other
things like changes in solar radiation or the levels of cosmic rays.
In summary, global
warming threatens many of the
things that humans hold to be of most value,
i.e., life, health, family, the ability to make a living, community, and the natural environment.
I personally believe that IPCC will ignore the actual lack of
warming (
i.e. cooling) and stick with its exaggerated forecasts in the hopes that
things will turn around again until it becomes painfully obvious that these are unrealistic and that the IPCC models have lost all credibility.
How about this logic... if the ocean is an enormous heat sink and ate their
warming, and this was not anticipated or built into the models AT ALL, then the models are all cr @p, the huge sensitivity to C02 (amplification) is in the same crock of poo (
i.e. the ocean provides damping and there is no amplification), and there really is no such
thing as CAGW... there's only 134 pathetic excuses for climate models that are all wrong because the scientists didn't consider that 75 - ish percent of the globe was covered with water.
Other papers imply a similar
thing,
i.e. CO2 increases in the atmosphere can be explained largely by the
warming ocean.
You need to consider all the other
things, besides GHG, which can and do «force» the climate (
i.e., cause
warming or cooling across the planetary system).
The overall net emission over this period = + 0.5 units yet we can see how anthropogenic and sea (e.g.
warming) contribute equally to this figure while net natural emission (
i.e. sea + land) is — 0.5 Do we really know enough about the carbon cycle, in particular the natural fluxes of CO2, to rule out that some
thing like this is going on?
