Solar forcing has increased over the 20th century and given that the oceans have not yet had time to equilibrate to the new levels of forcing, it must have contributed some to the recent warming, in fact, that equlibration was further delayed by the cooling period, so the unrealized climate commitment would have been greater than ordinarily expected given that most of the increase in solar activity occurred in the first half of the century.

What is happening here is that the two (Hansen and Trenberth) whom you describe as «not, in fact, fanatics blinded by dogma» were surprised by the recent «lack of warming» (i.e. slight cooling) of the atmosphere as well as the upper ocean, despite CO2 increase to record levels, as this does not provide much support for the premise that human CO2 is driving our climate.

Also, wouldn't there need to be data showing much more ocean cooling if the AMO PDO were a significant factor in recent warming?

Scientists studying oceans demonstrate that the recent warming, to the end of the last century, is part of the natural cycle of oceanic oscillations and predict a thirty year cooling phase.

With the recent decline in solar flux and the shift to cool phases of ocean oscillations, natural climate change suggests that although glacier retreat and sea level rise will likely continue over the next few decades, the rates of sea level rise and glacier retreats will slow down.The next decade will provide the natural experiment to test the validity of competing hypotheses.

This snowpack accumulation near the poles, which gets its water via the Arctic and Antarctic oceans, that in turn rob it from equatorial latitudes of our oceans, also results in a reduction in the earth's spin axis moment of inertia and causes the spin rate to increase as evidenced in the recent history of the rate at which Leap Seconds are added to our calendar (see Wysmuller's Toucan Equation for more on this evidence that during this warm time with much greater polar humidity, earlier seasonal, later seasonal and heavier snows are beginning to move water vapor from the oceans to the poles to re-build the polar ice caps and lead us into a global cooling, while man - made CO2 continues to increase http://www.colderside.com/faq.htm).

One example I like was a relatively recent explanation of why the Earth was warming and why the temperatures in winter were lower than average; the reason was apparently that an ocean warmer than the atmosphere above was taking heat out of the atmosphere resulting in cooler winter temperatures.

The apparent levelling off in the sea level rise is coincident with recent cooler ocean surfaces.
