It
appears global warming is replicating conditions that, in the past, triggered
significant shifts in the stability of the Antarctic ice sheet.
Thus it
appears that, provided further satellite cloud data confirms the cosmic ray flux low cloud seeding hypothesis, and no other factors were involved over the past 150 years (e.g., variability of other cloud layers) then there is a potential for solar activity induced changes in cloudiness and irradiance to account for a
significant part of the
global warming experienced during the 20th century, with the possible exception of the last two decades.
Habitable, of course, but it would
appear that the world will be changing quite substantially — and the long - term effects may be more
significant than «
global warming.»
In this context, for the Administration to have released a U.S. Climate Action Report with a chapter on climate change impacts that identified a range of likely adverse consequences, based on scientific reports including the National Assessment, could rightly be seen as an anomaly and
appeared to be seen as a
significant political error by Administration allies dedicated to denying the reality of human - induced
global warming as a
significant problem.
I'm very convinced that the physical process of
global warming is continuing, which
appears as a statistically
significant increase of the
global surface and tropospheric temperature anomaly over a time scale of about 20 years and longer and also as trends in other climate variables (e.g.,
global ocean heat content increase, Arctic and Antarctic ice decrease, mountain glacier decrease on average and others), and I don't see any scientific evidence according to which this trend has been broken, recently.
It would
appear rather odd that Bhaskar et al. (2017) would wish to claim, for example, that methane gas has been a
significant driver of
warming, but at the same time reject water vapour and cloud cover changes as factors affecting
global temperatures.
