Based on
physical modelling taking into account measured and astrophysically plausible variations in solar spectral luminosity, and on consistent
physical models of the response of he climate system to solar forcing, you can't explain away the 20th / 21st net
warming trend with solar effects.
Therefore, in order to come up with an alternative explanation, one has to simultaneously show why GHGs are not causing the

based on
physical principles, and at the same time come up with a natural source of temperature change that can match the magnitude and patterns of the observed change.
The point should be obvious: if global
warming is
based on solid
physical theories, then you have to discredit those theories if you want to preserve your «skeptical stance» — and that isn't possible.

warming would increase drought.
The surface
warming is also consistent with the many
physical indicators, and the observed amount of
warming is consistent with the expected range of climate sensitivity, which itself is
based upon many different lines of evidence.
Blaming global
warming on the movements of other planets is little more than «climastrology» and curve fitting without a
physical basis.
Clearly, as the critics point out, this revision is not
based on any known
physical science principles, nor on any new empirical evidence, but instead on a political agenda that demands «scientists» find more global
warming, pronto, for the Paris 2015 climate elite bureaucrats hookup extravaganza.
This mantra has been widely misunderstood and misapplied, but was the first and perhaps still the only systematic conclusion about regional precipitation and global
warming based on robust
physical understanding of the atmosphere.
The
Physical Science
Basis, Cambridge, 996 pp, 2007), climate models project a fast rate of southwestern
warming accompanied by devastating droughts (Seager et al. in Science 316:1181 — 1184, 2007; Williams et al. in Nat Clim Chang, 2012).
They then summarize evidence showing disagreement, identify four reasons why scientists disagree about global
warming, and then provide a detailed survey of the
physical science of global
warming based on the authors» previous work.
Show me the empirical data,
based on real - time
physical observations or reproducible experimentation (NOT climate model runs), which support the premise that GH
warming requires decades or even centuries to reach «equilibrium».
The assembled panel issued the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report entitled «The
Physical Science
Basis, Summary for Policy Makers» that concludes that global average temperature will rise between 1.1 °C to 6.4 °C by 2100, and that it is «very likely» (90 % certainty) that human activities and emissions are causing global
warming.
Eminent scientists who queried the IPCC line — which is
based on models rather than clear understanding of the underlying
physical mechanisms — and eminent economists and statisticians who argued that the case for net costs from any
warming had never been demonstrated — were vilified.
The process should start with a validation (with empirical data
based on
physical observations or reproducible experimentation) of the model -
based hypothesis that AGW has been the primary cause of past
warming and represents a serious threat to humanity and our environment.
My impression is it will be easier to predict the changes in the «amount of cold and
warm» then the distribution of it for a given external forcing, though I'd like confirmation on that (although if I took the time I might be able to justify that view
based on some
physical arguments, maybe?)
However,
based on known
physical laws, we can predict with a great deal of confidence that if greenhouse gases continue to increase we will arrive at a specific address — a
warmer world.
In comparing human - caused and natural «radiative forcing,» (which is defined as «an index of the importance of [a] factor as a potential climate change mechanism»), the IPCC's February 2007 Working Group I Report «The

warming influence on climate.
