2) Another way would be to carry out a process - oriented comparison, wherein one focuses on a set of processes or natural variabilities (e.g. ENSO, NAO or Indian Ocean Dipole) and investigate how good a particular model reproduces climatology of certain variables during those processes / variabilities (in reference to similar climatology from the satellites).

This is due primarily to the fact that CO2 is non-reactive in the atmosphere and it takes quite a while for natural processes (mostly in the ocean) to scrub it out.

Note that the idea of mixing CO2 with limestone as part of a deep ocean injection scheme (probably impractical for other reasons) is a shortcut to this natural process.

Dave: ``... what natural process could possibly cause significant temperature variability in the ocean system, which has such a huge inertia, on timescales as small as a decade?

-- Enhanced weathering processes on land and in the ocean to accelerate natural removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere have only been carried out on a limited scale with intermediate technological readiness.

Reefs: Natural temperature - limiting processes may prevent ocean surface waters from warming past levels dangerous to corals, at least in some important regions, according to a study being published in Geophysical Research Letters on Saturday.

The Realclimate theory thus fails and the temperature gradient from the body of the ocean to the top millimetre and then the atmosphere is maintained at or near to the natural level with the extra warmth being ejected from the system by the enhanced evaporation / condensation and weather processes.

The ENTIRE warming is to be found within those three steps, explained in full by natural (ocean) processes.

Natural processes, such as the churning of ocean waters, can form dead zones on their own.

They are twice the change, and they are the only major positive contribution, when natural processes are netted in the sense that transfer across the ocean / atmosphere boundary is netted and growth and decay of plants is netted.

Here we present a means to estimate this natural flux by a separation of oceanic carbon anomalies into those created by biogenic processes and those created by CO2 exchange between the ocean and atmosphere.

The Ocean tectonics, according to the geologic records from North Atlantic show (as I actively advocated for some years) that the primary temperature change is a function of the natural processes.

We now recognize more of the natural climatic variations caused by the interaction of five highly nonlinear coupled chaotic processes: earth's atmosphere, oceans, volcanoes, solar weather, and galactic cosmic rays (Curry 2016, Curry 2017).

CO2 and WATER VAPOR are influenced by the environment in other words as the oceans go so do hey despite man's contribution which is fractional when compared to natural processes.

Spherical harmonics are the natural choice for representing patterns on a sphere, but the oceans don't cover the whole of the sphere and the physical processes that govern changes in SST might mean that harmonics aren't the most natural set of patterns for efficiently capturing that variability.

Yes they ad up: the natural flows in and out are huge and only rough estimates, but the difference between the natural inflows and outflows (for oceans and vegetation and all other processes together) is well known, as that is the difference between increase in the atmosphere and the human emissions.

The reason for the accumulation is simple: Human activities are emitting more carbon dioxide than the planet's natural processes (uptake by plants and the ocean) can remove.

The rest is estimated to go into natural processes, mostly the oceans and the oceans have been measured to be DECREASING IN ALKALINITY (ie CO2 is going INTO THE OCoceans and the oceans have been measured to be DECREASING IN ALKALINITY (ie CO2 is going INTO THE OCoceans have been measured to be DECREASING IN ALKALINITY (ie CO2 is going INTO THE OCEANSOCEANS).

Their safety and resilience depends on the effectiveness of natural and man - made coastal flood protection, i.e. the capacity of the coastal zone to act as a buffer and absorb ocean energy through complex wave shoaling and breaking processes.
