Estimating the impact of CO2 on global mean temperature
Still, the muddled thinking I see... The surface does no such thing. I don't even think convection is the real key difference. Most of the so-called global warming occurs at night over the Arctic. How far North now can one build a successful Greenhouse that rarely needs extra heat by...- bellfreeC

Is Earth's Temperature Governed by Physics Alone?
Then, what is so basic about these calculations? Look at it from the global warming potential point of view. What are the odds of a CO2 molecule staying aloft for a hundred years or more? MrB. ",,,Greenhouse Effects Within The Frame Of Physics" http://arxiv.org/abs/0707.1161v4 I have...- bellfreeC

Is Earth's Temperature Governed by Physics Alone?
Yes, this has been provided many times. "Figure — Details of Earth's energy balance (source: Kiehl and Trenberth, 1997). Numbers are in watts per square meter of Earth's surface, and some may be uncertain by as much as 20%..." The black and white version that currently brings up the rear of...- bellfreeC

Is Earth's Temperature Governed by Physics Alone?
"The fifties and sixties were years of unreal optimism about weather forecasting. Newspapers and magazines were filled with hope for weather science, not just for prediction but for modification and control. Two technologies were maturing together, the digital computer and the space...- bellfreeC

Is Earth's Temperature Governed by Physics Alone?
This is Chjoaygame: "Inside the window, one is interested in separate radiative transfer of heat from the land-sea surface. The mean free path of "single photons", when the air is relatively dry and the CO2 relatively little, can be hundreds of kilometers. The very importantly and greatly...- bellfreeC

Ocean Heat Storage: Implications for Climate Change Research
All right, don't hold back. :) Well, a loon implies that he knows not[what he says] rather than a master magician who knows better. Anyway, I see thread id:245897 is in forum=20. That maybe the place for any more comments on motives. However, as I have read that thread{almost finished}...- bellfreeC

Ocean Heat Storage: Implications for Climate Change Research
I am kind of curious myself. This first technique I bolded is suppose to be a quicker study. I have yet to google Arthur Robinson**. I suspect the petition could be signed by anyone, whether they call themselves a scientist or not. Air-Sea CO2 Flux by Eddy Covariance Technique in the...- bellfreeC

I would like an expansion on that, if you don't mind terribly. ...if you especially could fit Tim Palmer in the discussion. MrB.- bellfreeC

Rising Carbon Dioxide Levels Don’t Increase Earth’s Temperature
Here is a gross map of spheres that constitutes the total atmosphere. In my opinion, as far as climate goes, gross is all we have. The finer details(which can make physics and chemistry fun i suppose) are left to molal heat capacity and the coefficient of viscosity. The latter result came as...- bellfreeC

Rising Carbon Dioxide Levels Don’t Increase Earth’s Temperature
That's silly. The temperature lapse rate to a nearly minus sixty degrees Fahrenheit does not sound like it can "radiate" anything worth while. MrB.- bellfreeC
