The Atlantic Ocean could be trapping vast amounts of heat, possibly accounting for a reduction in global
warming seen since the beginning of the century.
I will try to get some more specific answers for you and either correct or fill out this article, but I think the main gist of the argument is that there are other factors at play and the simple lack of a perfect correlation does not mean that CO2 is not the primary driver of the general
warming seen since 1900.
There is no real debate in the peer - reviewed scientific literature over the fact that the unusual, accelerating global
warming seen since the 19th Century is attributable to the increase of greenhouse gases, primarily carbon dioxide, in the atmosphere due to burning fossil fuels.
The IPCC says scientists are now 95 per cent certain that the buildup of such gases from the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation is the main cause of
warming seen since the middle of the 20th century.
I understand that there are other GHGs than CO2, and there is cooling caused by air pollution, but on balance, 3C / doubling CO2 pretty well explains the observed
warming seen since 1970.

warming seen since the industrial revolution.»
Little Miss Sunshine, It is looking like nearly 100 % of the non-oscillatory
warming seen since 1900 is due to the influence of GHGs.
Then there is the IPCC estimate that only 7 % of
the warming seen since 1750 was caused by solar forcing, conceding, however, that its «level of scientific understanding of natural (solar) forcing is low»

So the report notes that the current «pause» in new global average temperature records
since 1998 — a year that
saw the second strongest El Nino on record and shattered
warming records — does not reflect the long - term trend and may be explained by the oceans absorbing the majority of the extra heat trapped by greenhouse gases as well as the cooling contributions of volcanic eruptions.
