Thus it appears that, provided further
satellite cloud
data confirms the cosmic ray flux low cloud seeding hypothesis, and no
other factors were involved over the past 150 years (e.g., variability of
other cloud layers) then there is a potential for solar activity induced changes
in cloudiness and irradiance to account for a significant part of the global warming experienced during the 20th century, with the possible exception of the last two decades.

On the
other hand though, if one isolates the 60 - year sinusoidal oscillation from the

This is an important point, because Christy is constantly claiming that his UAH

in which the amount of warming the authors claim is happening
in the United States is inconsistent with the amount of warming
in the UAH record.

data1 (for example, based on sediment records) are shown
in red (1800 - 1890, pink band shows uncertainty), tide gauge

in green from 1993 to 2012.3 The future scenarios range from 0.66 feet to 6.6 feet
in 2100.4 These scenarios are not based on climate model simulations, but rather reflect the range of possible scenarios based on
other kinds of scientific studies.
There are, however, caveats: (1) multidecadal fluctuations
in Arctic — subarctic climate and sea ice appear most pronounced
in the Atlantic sector, such that the pan-Arctic signal may be substantially smaller [e.g., Polyakov et al., 2003; Mahajan et al., 2011]; (2) the sea - ice records synthesized here represent primarily the cold season (winter — spring), whereas the
satellite record clearly shows losses primarily
in summer, suggesting that
other processes and feedback are important; (3) observations show that while recent sea - ice losses
in winter are most pronounced
in the Greenland and Barents Seas, the largest reductions
in summer are remote from the Atlantic, e.g., Beaufort, Chukchi, and Siberian seas (National Snow and Ice
Data Center, 2012, http://nsidc.org/Arcticseaicenews/); and (4) the recent reductions
in sea ice should not be considered merely the latest
in a sequence of AMOrelated multidecadal fluctuations but rather the first one to be superposed upon an anthropogenic GHG warming background signal that is emerging strongly
in the Arctic [Kaufmann et al., 2009; Serreze et al., 2009].
