warming and the last 8 years showing a
slight cooling trend, there is every chance that we could
see a steeper cooling trend arrive, PDO, AMO, Livingston and Penn (ap?).
If convection and evaporation were not present, I could
see the argument being made that a
slight increase in Radiation having some
warming effect, however convection and evaporation do exist within the Troposphere and the rate of cooling the two exhibit increases as surface temps increase.
It also doesn't help when you can go to climate4you.com and
see a 350 year chart from central England showing a long
slight warming trend, with no significant deviations, over the time span.
Perhaps the
slight warming we've
seen over the last 100 years is attributable to all the forests that have been cleared all over the world rather than CO2.
In the graph below a
slight statistical decline of global temperatures can be
seen after the peak
warm year of 1945.
Looking at the Figure 1 you cite (actual observation, Ishii) I
see around 0.5 C
warming from 1980 to 1998 and
slight cooling thereafter.
-- First ARGO results showed
slight cooling from 2003 to 2008 (Willis» «speed bump»); the ARGO data was then «corrected» to show
slight warming instead (I have not
seen a publication where the reason and extent of the «corrections» made is made transparent for all to
see)
But, hey, that last 30 year «accelerated»
warming cycle ended after 2000 — since then we are
seeing a
slight cooling cycle (as we did for the 30 years or so before 1970).
What you
see in this, is that nightly cooling matching
warming, no delay, only
slight changes between
warming and cooling.
Anyone can
see that there is no global
warming and even if there was, it won't be alarming as there always has been and will be
slight changes even without human beings.
Michaels points satellite data, claiming that «you
see it's really not global
warming, obviously -LSB-...] In fact, because there is a net statistically significant cooling of the whole record, it almost looks to me, as a scientist, like what's really going on here is the planet has remained in the
slight cooling phase that it was in since World War II -LSB-...]» [93]
In his official statement, Soon wrote that he has «been the target of attacks in the press by various radical environmental and politically motivated groups» and that the «effort should be
seen for what it is: a shameless attempt to silence my scientific research and writings, and to make an example out of me as a warning to any other researcher who may dare question in the
slightest their fervently held orthodoxy of anthropogenic global
warming.»
If convection and evaporation were not present, I could
see the argument being made that a
slight increase in Radiation having some
warming effect, however convection and evaporation do exist within the Troposphere and the rate of cooling the two exhibit increases as surface temps increase.
Physically, one could expect a
slight decrease in surface evaporation (a «dimming» effect) and related changes to precipitation, a
warming of the tropopause and lower stratosphere (and changes in static stability), increased Eurasian «winter
warming» effects (related to shifts in the wind patterns as are
seen in the aftermath ofvolcanoes).
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the destabilization depth for methane in near 0 degree C temps is 200 meters, so the statement that I have
seen here and elsewhere that the methane hydrate is at that depth should not surprise us and should not lead us to think that it is therefore stable — it is right on the edge of destabilizing, any even
slight amount of
warming will do so.
Warming trends (0 - 2000 m) are
seen in the Indian Ocean and the South Atlantic, with
slight cooling trends in the Pacific and North Atlantic.
We have
seen a total linear
warming of 0.041 C per decade or 0.66 C over the entire 160 - year HadCRUT record (this has occurred in 3 statistically indistinguishable 30 - year
warming cycles, with 30 - year cycles of
slight cooling in between, as Girma has shown us graphically).
Physically, one could expect a
slight decrease in surface evaporation (a «dimming» effect) and related changes to precipitation, a
warming of the tropopause and lower stratosphere (and changes in static stability), increased Eurasian «winter
warming» effects (related to shifts in the wind patterns as are
seen in the aftermath of volcanoes).
Though much of our testing occurred during
warm, summer days in Portland, Oregon, this feature allowed us to

slight changes in pressure.
