Thawing permafrost also delivers organic - rich soils to lake bottoms, where decomposition in the absence of oxygen releases additional methane.116 Extensive wildfires also release carbon that contributes to climate warming.107, 117,118 The capacity of the Yukon River Basin in Alaska and adjacent Canada to store carbon has been substantially weakened since the 1960s by the combination of warming and thawing of permafrost and by increased wildfire.119 Expansion of tall shrubs and trees into tundra makes the surface darker and rougher, increasing absorption of the sun's energy and further contributing to warming.120 This warming is likely stronger than the potential cooling effects of increased carbon dioxide uptake associated with tree and shrub expansion.121 The shorter snow - covered seasons in Alaska further increase energy absorption by the land surface, an effect only slightly offset by the reduced energy absorption of highly reflective post-fire snow - covered landscapes.121 This spectrum of changes in Alaskan and other high - latitude terrestrial ecosystems jeopardizes efforts by society to use ecosystem carbon management to offset fossil fuel emissions.94, 95,96

Trends in surface temp shorter than 30 year are weather not climate.

The strong influence of natural variability on surface air temperatures is the reason that climate researchers regularly point out that any record shorter than around 20 - 30 years is not useful for detecting long - term trends associated with anthropogenic warming.

In short: the oceans can't be the cause of the increase, by Henry's Law and because the 13C / 12C ratio is higher than in the atmosphere while we see a continuous drop in ratio both in the ocean surface layer and the atmosphere in ratio with human emissions.

While we are hesitant to extrapolate from very short data series (always a dubious procedure) it is entirely plausible that reduction in low cloud over the period could conservatively be estimated to have increased heating at Earth's surface by 5 - 10 Wm - 2, an amount more than sufficient to account for all the estimated warming over the period.

There are even rare cases when the clouds are actually warmer than the surface and then the clouds are radiating downward to the surface and also to space but as you should see, this condition is short lived since it has cooler on both sides unless continually replenished with warmth to maintain the temperature differential.

Not only that, but there is increasingly compelling evidence that the recent short - term slowdown in the surface temperature record was much less pronounced than previously estimated, if rapid Arctic warming is fully reflected, along with potential biases from the changing mix of sea surface temperature measurement sources in recent years.
