Is this a joke? My advanced degree in atmospheric dynamics & climate tells me that the relevant thermal bands of CO2 are saturated above 360 ppm, & the only thing left to worry about is a greener Earth, as observed. I'm funded exclusively by NASA, NSF, AFOSR, & NOAA, since 1976.

@ChrisMartzWX That is false - as every expert in the field is telling us practically daily. More CO2 = more heat. More heat will lead to more floods, droughts, wildfires, tropical storms.... I don't know who is filling you with such nonsense, but I suspect they are funded by fossil fuel ind.

Basic physics. CO2 is done. Nothing more to do above 360 ppm, the thermal bands saturated, other than a greener Earth. Methane is utterly irrelevant to climate. But it keeps me warm in the cold season.

@bkheywood Basic chemistry. When you burn hydrocarbons, you produce CO2, a global warming gas. Natural gas is mostly methane, also a global warming gas. It also leaks into the atmosphere... The thing about science, as you get more information, how you approach the problem often changes. 1/2

That’s because (a) the half-life of CH4 is too short to be relevant to climate, & (b) the infrared bands of CO2 are saturated already. As a result of (b) it is impossible to detect or to simulate the impacts of delta CO2 at 300-450 ppm, save for our greener flora-sphere.

The more common deception is to simply repeat a phrase. ECS = “Equilibrium Climate Sensitivity”. Today, assumed to refer to carbon dioxide. In fact there is no mathematical basis for this notion - much less, any physical basis. We have no mathematical/dynamical theory of climate.

Kudos to my friend & colleague Tiffany. The way forward is to end modeling altogether. Since we cannot & never will simulate a cloud, why not measure them instead? Their electro-radiometric properties defy current understanding, yet we are told, our climate hangs in the balance!

We don’t observe a jet stream nor shears thereof in situ, nor globally at all, Paul. You seem to rely on assimilation, not measurements. Your airplane? Shear? Surely you jest. As for the future, climate models are junk science of the worst sort: they can’t even simulate a cloud!

@JunkScience The jet steam is now 15% more strongly sheared than when satellites began observing it. That's not a computer modelling result. And as for the future, if you've got a better way of forecasting turbulence than using computer simulations, please do let me know.

My recent conversation with Happer establishes that a CO2 molecule excited by a photon is thermalized immediately between the stratopause (10^6 collisions per second there) & surface (10^9 per second). Emission requires ~1 second. Calibration of CO2 lasers requires this info.

@DavidDibbell Yep. Warmers say there's a GHE and effect and they're right. But they're clueless about its magnitude and about how it exponentially drops off with concentration. They're also clueless about how much of the IR absorbed by CO2 is thermalized instead of reradiated.

Dear Tim, The answer to Stephen Janitor's question is very simple. 100% of CO2 molecules that collide with photons convert  the newly acquired rotation and vibrational energy to heat, mainly in collisions with N2, O2. There is essentially no scattering of thermal photons. The

Unfortunately we lack operational airborne measurements of spectra in all-sky conditions. (The ARM program has failed us.) I’ll forward your Q to Will Happer. Note that radiative transfer occurs in the atmospheric column, but is one of several processes that determine lapse rate.

We don’t measure temperature before NIST, & never globally, not even now. If you insist on CET, it demonstrates that CO2 lags temperature, as suggested by paleo proxies - although we have no clue what delta 18 O measures, besides the oxygen isotope itself. CERES absolves CO2.

Simple physics tells us that CO2 spectral lines are mostly saturated today. Simple observations inform us that clouds are orders of magnitude ten more important than delta CO2 at 300-450 ppm. Camus is not an idiot, but he’s a good reporter of climate idiocy.

Overall, the “likely” range sea-level projections have remained fairly stable between AR5-> SROCC -> AR6. The big news for AR6 is the inclusion of “low confidence” projections that illustrate the potential for much larger rates of rise associated with ice sheet uncertainties..

Clouds. They’re orders of magnitude ten more important than delta CO2 at 300-450 ppm. CO2 bands are mostly saturated today. “Oh it’s the wings” says Grant Petty. Yes indeed, if we believe Rentsch, those little wings are now detectable in AIRS… showing again that CO2 cools Earth.

The greenhouse gas hypothesis states that carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere traps heat from the sun, causing an increase in the planet's average temperature. To falsify this hypothesis, we need to rigorously understand the real, significant factors affecting temperature.
