Similarly, the logarithmic nature of the radiative forcing does have a theoretical basis, but strictly speaking, is only a good approximation that is valid for a relatively narrow range of CO2 concentrations (although the range is broad enough to encompass what you'd expect to see for our present day climate change).
Present - day carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from subaerial and submarine volcanoes are uncertain at the presenPresent - day carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from subaerial and submarine volcanoes are uncertain at the presentpresent time.
Model simulations for the North Atlantic Ocean and thermodynamic principles reveal that this feedback should be stronger, at present, in colder midlatitude and subpolar waters because of the lower present - day buffer capacity and elevated DIC levels driven either by northward advected surface water and / or excess local air - sea CO2 uptake.
For example, if the CO2 - ice threshold for present - day Earth is 500 ppm, the equivalent threshold during the Late Ordovician (450 million years ago) would be 3000 ppm.
Motivated by the need for a clear reference for this issue, we review the existing literature and use the Goddard Institute for Space Studies ModelE radiation module to provide an overview of the role of each absorber at the presentday and under doubled CO2.
The radiative forcing due to CO2 may serve as an amplifier of initial orbital forcing, which is then further amplified by fast atmospheric feedbacks (39) that are also at work for the present - day and future climate.
Can you point me to a study which examines paleoclimatic temperature, CO2 and atmospheric aerosols and reconciles them with present day temperature, CO2 and atmospheric aerosols?
These studies assume a gradual increase in CO2 from present - day levels at a rate of about 1 % per year.
If the energy used for building and maintaining the extra infrastructure is accounted for in a life cycle analysis of a renewable power grid, it would be just as CO2 - intensive as the present - day power grid.
To project future emissions from human activities, we used the SRES higher (A1FI) and lower (B1) emissions scenarios that capture to some extent the uncertainty in future climate due to human decisions [22], with CO2 emissions ranging from slightly less than present - day levels up to four times present - day levels by 2100.

I think that when people need to resort to conditions 500 million years ago to «refute» present - day directly observable radiative effects from CO2 and other IR - active atmospheric species — backed by solid, lab - tested physical theory — that I'm not the one with a problem airly dismissing a priori «assumptions».
Observations highlight that most climate models overestimate the present - day sensitivity of land CO2 changes, suggesting a too strong weakening of CO2 tropical land storage with climate change.
We can broadly measure or estimate present day emissions (to a couple of significant digits) and work out our contribution to CO2 that way.
Motivated by the need for a clear reference for this issue, we review the existing literature and use the Goddard Institute for Space Studies ModelE radiation module to provide an overview of the role of each absorber at the present - day and under doubled CO2.

To get an idea of the scale, we note that a [100 % increase / 7.5 = 13 % increase] of methane from present - day concentration would be equivalent to 60 ppm increase in CO2 from present - day, and [10 times / 7.5 = 1.333 times] present methane would be equivalent to about a doubling of CO2.

Although historical records indicate that atmospheric CO2 concentrations and sea surface temperatures have undergone significant oscillations and have exceeded present - day levels in the past [3,4], it is the unprecedented rates of change that are fuelling concerns over whether organisms will retain the capacity to mediate vital ecosystem functions and services [5,6].
It is the understanding of the power of the carbon cycle and the primary role played by geological processes that promotes doubt in some geologists minds that present - day climate change is caused by human - sourced CO2 in the atmosphere; they simply don't believe that we humans have that much influence.
