The whole issue is that any level above what is often called the «effective radiating level» (say, at ~ 255 K on Earth) should start to cool as atmospheric CO2 increases, since the layers above this height are being shielded more strongly from upwelling radiation... except not quite, because convection distributes heating higher than this level, the stratosphere marks the point where convection gives out and there is high static stability.

Physics says the energy into a system must equal the energy out once in balance, The heat in the oceans is what must be there to produce enough heat radiation out to space through the air / GHG blanket.

There would be little or no energy cycling between the mass bulk of the atmosphere and the surface so the surface need only be warm enough to provide the necessary radiation out at the top of the atmosphere.

No publication discusses a greenhouse effect specifically at the poles, so don't bother me with links to all the «runaway greenhouse» garbage (which I've studied for thousands of hours) because there's only 1W / m ^ 2 going in from the Sun, and so no more coming out into the atmosphere, and so no more coming down again as back radiation.

First, there is a logical flaw, for which I do not know the Latin, where Lord Monckton makes a true statement (albeit simplified), that the Earth gets rid of excess heat through radiation out to space, which implies a particular final outcome, but omits another relevant fact that changes that final outcome.

In 1928, George Simpson published a memoir on atmospheric radiation, which assumed water vapour was the only greenhouse gas, even though, as Richardson pointed out in a comment, there was evidence that even dry air absorbed infrared radiation.

If there is a DALR, the lower surface will constantly transfer heat to the upper surface through radiation, and gravity must then sort it out precisely as I describe above, which so obviously violates the second law that it isn't funny.
