The news that 2005 was the warmest year ever recorded in Australia comes at the end of a year in which, to the extent that facts can settle anything, the debate over human - caused global warming has been settled.

Despite the paucity of proof for past climate claims, the third IPCC report says that «new evidence» makes it likely that «most of the warming observed over the last 50 years» comes from the human production of greenhouse gases.

I no doubt that enough feedbacks have kicked in that we could cease all human carbon emissions today, and over the next 50 years we would still see the Earth warm to more than 2C as it comes to thermodynamic equilibrium with the forcing from 400 ppmv CO2 and all feedbacks.

It should come as no surprise that the models did overestimate the warming of the sea surface temperatures of the tropical oceans over the past 30 years.

Few here realize that the IPWP has been gaining energy and expanding for the past 60 + years, or that what is considered as anomalous warmth in the Pacific used to define the comings and goings of El Nino's has been constantly revised upwards over the past several decades to account for the continuously warming ocean.

My whole point is that we're been coming out of an ice age for 18,000 years, so the probability that we're in a warming spell would seem to be over 50 % at present (climate is always either warming or cooling).

Fortunately, we live in a warm interglacial (the Holocene), but unfortunately the regular occurrence of epic glaciations over the last 1.8 million years indicates another one is coming.

So, what if we use the statistics BEFORE the last 50 years to come up with a model of temperature variability, and then see if that statistical model can «predict» the strong warming over the most recent 50 year period?

Global warming is a prediction come true: it was predicted well over 100 years ago that increasing the levels of CO2 in the atmosphere would raise the Earth's temperature.

There has not been shown to be a density variation of significance that correlates with average temperature variation (e.g, the recent high average temperature came from a small very hot area over the ocean and a small northern area, and more normal to even colder temperatures everywhere else, not global temperatures being warmer), and Solar activity has been shown to correlate very well with much of the long term (thousands of years time scale) global temperature trend.

This ocean acidification hypothesis, as it has come to be known, has gained great momentum in recent years, because it offers a second independent reason to regulate fossil fuel emissions in addition to that provided by concerns over traditional global warming.

Now, with the caveat that Latif claims no «skill» in any forecast after 2015 — a caveat the media and deniers never print — as you can see, their model suggests we'll see pretty damn rapid warming in the coming decade, just as the Hadley Center did in a 2007 Science piece and just as the US Naval Research Lab and NASA recently predicted (see «Another major study predicts rapid warming over next few years «'' nearly 0.3 °F by 2014 «-RRB-.

Steve S beats me to it, but here's a Myles Allen quote anyway: I have argued for years that the odds on a high climate sensitivity are largely irrelevant to the warming we should expect over the coming century, and I certainly never suggested to David that my assessment of the odds on any particular level of warming by 2100 had changed.

Now, it may be that along with this longer interglacial comes the idea that over shorter timescales (of, say, 10000 or 20000 years) we would actually expect some a little warming although I haven't heard this case made... and would expect that any such effect would be quite modest.
