b. Most importantly descending air currents adiabatically generate a thermal ceiling that prevents rising convection currents from carrying away surface heat.

When rising air reaches a layer of adiabatically heated air the rising convection currents stop and the surface heat is trapped just like the raised windows in your car trap the heat.

15 Heat Transport in the Biosphere The unequal heating of Earth's surface drives winds and ocean currents transport heat throughout the biosphere Winds form because warm air tends to rise and cool air tends to sink air that is heated near the equator rises

Another claim that southern regions in Australia have lost rainfall due to rising ocean temperatures and air currents pushing rain further south was also removed.

More clouds both drastically reduce energy input from the sun and simply slow release of what energy there is trapped in the lower troposphere, but the long term effect would be a fall in average temperature because of the significantly reduced input power but the atmosphere's ability to cool is aided by air current circulation whereby the warmer air rises above those low clouds and that infra - red is more easily re-emitted into space, whereby the low clouds now block that re-emission from hitting the ground again to any significant degree.

The warmed surface radiates as a blackbody, and also loses heat through rising in air currents or evaporated moisture.

So if oceans continue to rise in heat, and the atmosphere continues to trap a much higher amount of heat (let alone, as GG levels continue to rise, more and more of it) current air temperatures don't come close to representing a stases condition, and can't.

For example, higher temperatures locally create large convective currents of rising hot air which «sucks in» cooler air from another area.
