-- Upper - tropospheric moistening in response to anthropogenic warming — Increases in greenhouse forcing inferred from the outgoing longwave radiation spectra of the Earth in 1970 and 1997 — On the Atmospheric Residence Time of Anthropogenically Sourced Carbon Dioxide — Deep Carbon Emissions from Volcanoes «it is clear that these natural emissions were recently dwarfed by anthropogenic emissions»
These warming trends are consistent with the response to increasing greenhouse gases and sulphate aerosols and likely can not be explained by natural internal climate variations or the response to changes in natural external forcing (solar irradiance and volcanoes).
Instead, they discuss new ways of playing around with the aerosol judge factor needed to explain why 20th - century warming is about half of the warming expected for increased in GHGs; and then expand their list of fudge factors to include smaller volcanos, stratospheric water vapor (published with no estimate of uncertainty for the predicted change in Ts), transfer of heat to the deeper ocean (where changes in heat content are hard to accurately measure), etc..
On the question of hurricanes, the theoretical arguments that more energy and water vapor in the atmosphere should lead to stronger storms are really sound (after all, storm intensity increases going from pole toward equator), but determining precisely how human influences (so including GHGs [greenhouse gases] and aerosols, and land cover change) should be changing hurricanes in a system where there are natural external (solar and volcanoes) and internal (e.g., ENSO, NAO [El Nino - Southern Oscillation, North Atlantic Oscillation]-RRB- influences is quite problematic — our climate models are just not good enough yet to carry out the types of sensitivity tests that have been done using limited area hurricane models run for relatively short times.

The oxygen content of the atmosphere is diminishing at a rate that corresponds to the increase in CO2, so the increase in CO2 is due to oxidation of carbonaceuos material of some kind, eg., burning, decay, etc., and not from, say, the oceans, volcanoes or some other geological process.
Second, a series of mildly explosive volcanoes, which increased stratospheric particles, likely had more of a cooling effect than previously recognized.35, 36,37 Third, the high incidence of La Niña events in the last 15 years has played a role in the observed trends.29, 38 Recent analyses13 suggest that more of the increase in heat energy during this period has been transferred to the deep ocean than previously.
