It appears we agree on the inability of the global models to simulate the natural variations on decadal and, presumably longer time scales, of large scale circulation patterns such as ENSO, the PDO, the NAO etc..
The main difference between H2O and CO2 (apart from the numerical differences of their specific physical properites such as degree of freedom, thermal capacity, physical mass, etc) in terms of their effects on the atmosphere is that water is capable of condensing into liquid to form clouds and readily and rapidly moves between surface and atmosphere, daily, seasonally, annually and on even greater time scales, but CO2 does not liquify in the biosphere and transfers over mostly long time periods between surface (primarily oceans, seas, etc) and the atmosphere.
The long time scale for this recovery arises because ozone depleting gases such as chlorofluorocarbons are only removed from the atmosphere by natural processes at very slow rates.
Physically, C1 can be thought of as representing the concentration of CO2 in long - term stores such as the deep ocean; C1 + C2 as representing the CO2 concentration in medium - term stores such as the thermocline and the long - term soil - carbon storage; and C = C1 + C2 + C3 as the concentration of CO2 in those sinks that are also in equilibrium with the atmosphere on time scales of a year or less, including the mixed layer, the atmosphere itself and rapid - response biospheric stores.
Recent work (e.g., Hurrell 1995, 1996; Thompson and Wallace 1998; Corti et al., 1999) has suggested that the observed warming over the last few decades may be manifest as a change in frequency of these naturally preferred patterns (Chapters 2 and 7) and there is now considerable interest in testing the ability of climate models to simulate such weather regimes (Chapter 8) and to see whether the greenhouse gas forced runs suggest shifts in the residence time or transitions between such regimes on long time - scales.
Such changes might depend on a social movement for climate stabilization that supports long - term changes in social norms (e.g. about family size), greater availability of mass transit, climate - friendly urban design, or other actions that are impractical on the short term but on a longer time scale increase the plasticity of potentially high - impact behaviors.
The time scales for other end - use infrastructure (e.g. processes, building stock, roads and rail) may be even longer, though components (such as heaters, cars) may have considerably faster turnover.
The net effect of such compensations is that averages over larger areas or longer time scales commonly will give smaller estimates of change.
229 Time resolution on the scale of a year or two can be obtained from semi-fossil trees, e.g., Roig et al (2001) have a 1229 - year - long stretch of tree - ring widths from the middle of the last ice age at 40 ° S that shows abrupt droughts with abrupt recoveries (tenfold changes in yearly accumulation), but they are floating in absolute time and such local records can not yet be matched to events in the ice - core recoTime resolution on the scale of a year or two can be obtained from semi-fossil trees, e.g., Roig et al (2001) have a 1229 - year - long stretch of tree - ring widths from the middle of the last ice age at 40 ° S that shows abrupt droughts with abrupt recoveries (tenfold changes in yearly accumulation), but they are floating in absolute time and such local records can not yet be matched to events in the ice - core recotime and such local records can not yet be matched to events in the ice - core records.
In looking at longer time scales, major shifts in climate such as the ice ages are easily recognizable, and viewing a long - term data set can provide the observer with a sense of the «big picture» of the climatic trends.
Thus there are primarily internal system changes forcing climate responses, not primarily external such as the absolute value of solar power (except over much longer time scales).
This inconsistency between model results and observations could arise either becaise «real world» amplification effects on short and long term time scales are controlled by different physical mechanisms, and models fail to capture such behavior, or because non-climatic influences remaining in some or all of the observed tropospheric datasets lead to biased long - term trends, or a combination of these factors.
Climate threshold - The point at which external forcing of the climate system, such as the increasing atmospheric concentration of heat - trapping gases (greenhouse gas es), triggers a significant climatic or environmental event which is considered unalterable, or recoverable only on very long time - scales, such as widespread bleaching of corals or a collapse of oceanic circulation systems.
By the way, we also did a paper on millennial - scale solar geoengineering (Cao et al, 2016) showing that, in at least one climate model, solar geoengineering behaves quite well on the 1000 - year time scale with no substantial long term growth in climate change as ocean circulation and such adjusts to the new conditions.
The glacial - interglacial cycles are an example of tight coupling between climate and the carbon cycle over long time scales, but there is also clear evidence of the carbon cycle responding to short - term climatic anomalies such as the El Niño - Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and Arctic Oscillation (Rayner et al., 1999; Bousquet et al., 2000; C. Jones et al., 2001; Lintner, 2002; Russell and Wallace, 2004) and the climate perturbation arising from the Mt. Pinatubo volcanic eruption (Jones and Cox, 2001a; Lucht et al., 2002; Angert et al., 2004).

The Incope (Bodenmann, 2000) is a questionnaire (5 - point scale) with 23 items (α = 0.80) developed on the basis of the COPE (Carver, Scheier, & Weintraub, 1989) measuring the following subscales such as active problem - solving («I attempt to tackle and solve the problem»), positive self - verbalization («I persuade myself that I will make it»), rumination («I ruminate for a long time and keep on thinking about the occurrence»), passivity / evasion («I wait until things change on their own, even if I might be able to do something»), negative emotional expression («I express my feelings without considering what this means for others»), substance use («I consume something that calms me down (cigarettes, alcohol, sweets, tranquiliser»)(α = 0.52 to α = 0.80).
