If your answer is «yes», then you should know the importance the photon streams have in
radiative heat transfer mechanism.
Not exact matches
«Never forget that climatology is not even a field, much less a science: «Rather, the atmospheric greenhouse
mechanism is a conjecture... the
radiative component of
heat transfer of CO2, though relevant at the temperatures in combustion chambers, can be neglected at atmospheric temperatures.
But they don't actually specify whether it is a
radiative energy
transfer mechanism or a sensible
heat transfer mechanism so how can I be clear what they «expect» exactly if they insist on being vague?
Radiative Heat Transfer is a fast response
mechanism and there is no basis for the idea that it would take decades for warming to take place for any given change to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
It includes results from a variety of different empirical approaches, including (1) time series analyses of the published temperature record; (2) examination of the response of the earth's outgoing radiation response to transient climate events; (3) calorimetric studies of the ocean - atmosphere system; (4)
mechanisms for secular climate change arising from ocean circulation systems and astronomical influences; and (4)
radiative and convective
heat transfer in the oceans and atmosphere.
As I understand projections are of course made on the basis of what is known today, which comprises that greenhouse gases force the climate system due to a well understood
mechanism of
radiative heat transfer, generating models that well explain what is observed and measured today.
Radiative heat transfer is not the only
mechanism, and some of what is observed today is not explained: on another thread is a discussion of clouds.
