Roles of Earth’s Albedo Variations and Top-of-the-Atmosphere Energy Imbalance in Recent Warming: New Insights from Satellite and Surface Observations

Ned Nikolov and Karl Zeller Main Conclusions Our analysis revealed that the solar forcing (i.e., Total Solar Irradiance (TSI) and albedo changes) measured by CERES explain 100% of the observed global warming trend and 83% of the interannual GSAT variability over the past 24 years (Figure 9), including the extreme 2023 heat anomaly (Figure 10).

Happer, Koonin, and Lindzen: Exhibit A

On March 21, 2018, the US District Court, Northern District of California, San Francisco Division granted William Happer, Steven Koonin, and Richard Lindzen “leave to submit presentation in response to the court’s tutorial questions.” Somehow, through the magic of law, they were able to file their 26-page document on March 19, 2018. We reproduce the

What makes the Earth warmer than the Moon?

NASA’s “The Causes of Climate Change” parrots the UN IPCC: In its Fifth Assessment Report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a group of 1,300 independent scientific experts from countries all over the world under the auspices of the United Nations, concluded there’s a more than 95 percent probability that human activities over the past

Climate Physics Basics

by Howard “Cork” Hayden, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Physics, U Connecticut This is a short series about basic (all-inclusive) physics that pertains to climate change. My purpose is not to engage in detail about wind, rain, snow, storms, historical climatology,Milankovitch cycles, or any of the common topics discussed about climate. My purpose is to discuss

How much does CO2 warm the Earth?

We have two excellent professional papers on climate change to review and compare. The first is by William A. van Wijngaarden and Will Happer. They calculate the CO2 climate sensitivity – the increase in temperature when CO2 doubles – is 2.2 K for a fixed relative humidity. The second is by David Coe, Walter Fabinski,

Slight warming from more carbon dioxide!

Note: The described excellent calculations by Happer and Wijngaarden are independent from the question of how much nature or humans caused the increase in carbon dioxide. – Ed by David Wojick, Ph.D. Precision research by physicists William Happer and Willem van Wijngaarden has determined that the current levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide and water vapor

Sun, not CO2, causes climate change

Willie Soon, Ronan Connolly, and Michael Connolly published a peer-reviewed professional paper that shows our sun, not our carbon dioxide, causes climate change. They show atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations are insignificant to climate change. They used northern hemisphere data from 1880 to 2014.  You can read their whole 49-page paper (like I did) if you want

Simple Proof AGW is False

by Howard C. Hayden, Professor Emeritus of Physics, UConn, October 27, 2009 The Honorable Lisa P. Jackson, AdministratorEnvironmental Protection Agency1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW Washington, DC 20460 Dear Administrator Jackson: I write in regard to the Proposed Endangerment and Cause or Contribute Findings for Greenhouse Gases Under Section 202(a) of the Clean Air Act, Proposed Rule, 74 Fed.

German Professor: Decades of Cooling: “Climate protection is ineffective”

by P Gosselin, NoTricksZone Meteorologist Prof. Dr. Horst Malberg has an article posted at the European Institute for Climate and Energy (EIKE) here. He tells us we ought to be preparing for a cooler 21st century first half. Professor Malberg starts his article by showing and discussing various solar activity charts. Today I’m a little short on time,

Now tell me CO2 drives temperature

If CO2 drives arctic temperature then the red temperature line should follow the blue CO2 line. Obviously, it does not. The red temperature line follows the green geomagnetic field line. So what’s all the fuss about our CO2 emissions? It’s long departed from science. Its power politics to take our money and our freedom. From

The Truth About Greenhouse Gases

The dubious science of the climate crusaders. by William Happer, First Things “The object of the Author in the following pages has been to collect the most remarkable instances of those moral epidemics which have been excited, sometimes by one cause and sometimes by another, and to show how easily the masses have been led

Maunder Minimum 1740—replay in 2020?

By Dennis Avery, Canada Free Press Churchville, VA—A reader recently pointed out a fascinating temperature comparison—between 1700 AD and today. He marked two sections of the world’s oldest temperature record—Central England Yearly Average Temperature 1660–2008:  The first section showed our famous recent temperature surge from 1976–1998. He also marked a similar strong temperature surge from

The Greenhouse Effect

by Vincent Gray, NZ Climate Truth Newsletter No 262 The greenhouse effect is caused by absorption of infra red radiation from the earth by trace gases in the earth’s atmosphere. A greenhouse confines only a small part of the atmosphere, so the trace gas absorption is negligible.
