like to claim, how to explain the disappearing ice then??? Those trying to explain a long term

As for the Sun, well,
like AnnaV I consider that the 2 by far most important factors in climate evolution is the cloudiness because it governs albedo and the large scale
oceans» behaviour because that's where the energy is Again you are so angry at the AGW crowd, that you miss the whole point: the all - important clouds and albedo vary together, but do not vary with the solar
cycle, as far as our observations go, e.g. http://www.leif.org/research/cloud-cover.png and http://www.leif.org/research/albedo.png

cycles on the sun affect climate only greenhouse gases.
Interestingly, the panel considered natural external factors,
like solar activity and
ocean cycles.
Those chalk deposits were the result of sinking plankton that produced calcium carbonate shells
like foraminifera and coccolithophorids, As discussed in Natural
Cycles of
Ocean Acidification, the creation of calcium carbonate shells pumps alkalinity to depth but produces CO2 at the surface thus adding to higher concentrations of atmospheric CO2.
However the natural climate is always changing due to
cycles of the sun,
ocean oscillations
like El Nino and the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation that alter the direction and strength of the winds, or natural landscape successions.
Expecting less than 5 % of Earths surface to filter the air mass from the other 95 % given actual air circulation patterns is patently absurd compared to natural CO2 scrubbing mechanisms
like the biological carbon
cycles, or Henry's law (which is leading to
ocean acidification.
Given the inertia of natural systems exposed to the solar influences,
like the Earth atmosphere -
ocean system, this
cycle clustering could still induce a peak in the external responses to solar activity,
like the Earth climate.
I would have
liked to see mention of uncertainty that inherent in examining short term data, whether the end points used introduces an element of bias, whether the «pause» is on a much higher plateau of warming than in the past, whether decadel
cycles in
ocean heat displacement may have interacted with the the known minimum levels of solar activity (not modelled) to cause this «pause».
External factors,
like decreased solar and increased volcanic activity, have also played a role in the slowed surface warming, but internal variability due to
ocean cycles appears to be the main culprit.
The basic
ocean cycle goes
like this; in the summer brine is concentrated by evaporation and in the winter the dense brine cools and becomes still denser and sinks.
This graph of US Mean temperature versus the AMO and PDO
ocean cycles is prominently featured: I particularly
liked the regression forecast fit:
On a (2011) Climate Etc. post Pondering the Arctic
Ocean, I interpreted the record in the context of a (qualitative) change point analysis, defined by changes in trend, mean value, amplitude of the annual

like 2013 was another change point year, characterized by low amplitude seasonal
cycle.
Natural earth /

cycles like PDO, AMO, NAO and ENSO are not even talked about by these same alarmists.
You don't think perhaps that celestial

cycles and
ocean fluctuations are the main drivers of climate change.»
Kevin C's excellent trend tool shows us what the new data mean for the surface temperature trend since 1970: it's about +0.17 C per decade, but there's a range in that because short term wiggles are caused by things

Nothing stops you from imagining that, if you choose, just
like nothing stops you from deciding the ice cores are all rot and imagining large past fluctuations in CO2 associated with mysterious
ocean cycles or whatever.
The problem with that argument is that over long periods of time (
like the six decades since 1950), positive and negative phases of
ocean cycles tend to cancel each other out, and thus internal variability doesn't have a large influence on long - term temperatures.

like that.
Since it takes several hundred years for the deep
ocean water to
cycle up to the top, where it can be warmed up and lose CO2, it makes sense to suppose that if a warming event is initiated by something else (
like changes in the amount and spatial distribution of incoming solar radiation,) the concomitant rise in atmospheric CO2 (which would enhance the initial warming) might lag behind by several hundred years.
Incidentally, those who claim the extreme 2005 hurricane season is entirely due to a natural
cycle,
like Bill Gray, also say it is due to warmer
ocean temperatures — the difference in opinion is in why the
ocean temperatures are so warm, not in the effect this has on hurricane intensity or precipitation.
