Earth's energy balance In response to a positive radiative forcing F (see Appendix A), such as characterizes the present - day anthropogenic perturbation (Forsteret al., 2007), the planet must increase its net energy loss to space in order to re-establish energy balance (
with net energy loss being the difference between the outgoing long - wave (LW) radiation and net incoming
shortwave (SW) radiation at the top - of - atmosphere (TOA)-RRB-.
Suppose further that a fraction «a» of the incoming
shortwave radiation is absorbed in the atmosphere (
with the remainder being absorbed by the ground).
A simple counterexample illustrates this: consider two massive cloud layers

If we isolate the ocean for diagnosis, there is a rather short list of suspect forcings and feedbacks (ie changes in
shortwave reaching ocean surface possibly from strong negative aerosol feedbacks, net positive rate change in loss of longwave from the ocean (which would have implications for the positive WVF), net positive heat loss through evaporation without balancing compensation (
with other implications for positive WVF).

Shortwave infrared is not hot, it is not heat, we can not feel it, it is classed
with visible light as Light, not Heat.
With electromagnetic energy from the Sun it needed to push the idea of «
shortwave heats land and oceans» because it first had to take out the direct heat from the Sun, thermal infrared, a.k.a. longwave infrared, a.k.a. heat, to establish its claimed «backradiation by greenhouse gases from trapping the upwelling thermal infrared from the heated Earth» and it didn't want any interference by the real world's direct heat from the Sun, thermal infrared, direct longwave infrared.
B) and replaced this
with the claim that Visible light from the Sun («
shortwave in») is the driving energy absorbed by the surface heating land and oceans.

I point out that the energy budget cartoon you work to claims that

with a reasonably extensive treatment of the
shortwave and longwave radiative transfers in the atmosphere.
The
shortwave seems to correlate
with the imbalance, so it seems plausible some of it could contribute to the forcing rather than just being the response.
As Ellison reemphasizes, 2015 and 2016 were the first major El Nino years

with the surface radiative energy budget requires both solar (broadband

with cloud feedback.
