over one region or another travel, never last forever, as such not causing a permanent shift in the temperature record (unless the clouds cover or not wide swats of the Polar regions).
In terms of the gold that a climate science denier might find in the paper, at the very least, they could argue that the fact that the troposphere isn't

warming more quickly than the surface
over the ocean but
less quickly than the surface
over land.
Global
warming, on the other hand, is far

over time.
