I'm still reading this para (Page 4) as a gaff: «Paleoclimate data permit evaluation of long - term sensitivity to specified GHG change.

Alternatively, more direct observations of that radiative imbalance would be nice, or better theoretical and observational understanding of the water vapor and cloud feedbacks, or more paleoclimate data which can give us constraints on historical feedbacks, but my guess is that ocean heat content measurements would be the best near term bet for improving our understanding of this issue.

The actual prevailing view of the paleoclimate research community that emerged during the early 1990s, when long - term proxy data became more widely available and it was possible to synthesize them into estimates of large - scale temperature changes in past centuries, was that the average temperature over the Northern Hemisphere varied by significantly less than 1 degree C in previous centuries (i.e., the variations in past centuries were small compared to the observed 20th century warming).

Verdon and Franks (2006)-- for instance — used «proxy climate records derived from paleoclimate data to investigate the long - term behaviour of the PDO and ENSO.

We can obtain this «long - term» climate sensitivity from paleoclimate data by finding the scale factor that causes the GHG forcing to match the paleoclimate temperature change as accurately as possible.

Second, because the geologic record has both temporal and geographic limitations in terms of coverage, more accurate climate models could provide paleoclimate interpretations where sedimentological data are limited (i.e., in frontier exploration areas).
