  • Martin T. Hovland: The Holocene Climate Change Story from Sola part III

    SCC Volume 3.1. Towards the end of the Weichsel ice age came a period with warmer climate referred to as the Late Glacial Interstadial (c.14,670 to 12,900 years BP), when the great inland ice started to retreat. This retreat was interrupted by a new period of cold climate – The Younger Dryas (YD) (c. 12,900…

  • Jonas Rosén and Sten Kaijser: Analytical Carbon Cycle Impulse Response Function

    SCC Volume 3.1. The purpose of this paper is to derive an analytical impulse response function (IRF), for the carbon cycle between atmosphere and sea. The analysis is starting from the Box-Diffusion model (BDM) given by Oeschger et al. The BDM is also the underlying model for the “sum of exponentials –IRF” presently used in…

  • Edwin X Berry: Nature Controls the CO2 Increase

    SCC Volume 3.1. Climate alarmism and politics are based on the invalid United Nations (UN) assumption that human CO2 is the dominant cause of the CO2 increase above 280 ppm, or since 1750. This assumption conflicts with UN’s own data, is derived from invalid circular reasoning, and violates physics.UN data show human carbon emissions have…

  • Hermann Harde: Understanding Increasing Atmospheric CO2

    SCC Volume 3.1. The carbon cycle is of fundamental importance to estimate the influence of anthropogenic emissions on the atmospheric CO2 concentration, and thus, to classify the impact of these emissions on global warming. Different models have been developed, which under simplified assumptions can well reproduce the observed CO2 concentration over recent years, but they…

  • David E. Andrews: Clear Thinking about Atmosspheric CO2

    SCC Volume 3.1. Several articles have been published in this journal purporting to show that the well-documented rise in atmospheric CO2 is a natural phenomenon rather than human caused. His note reviews the overwhelming case that human activities are the cause. It identifies specific misunderstandings about the carbon cycle and errors in the interpretation of…

  • John A. Parmentola: Celestial Mechanics and Estimating the Termination of the Holocene Warm Period

    SCC Volume 3.1. This paper addresses several issues concerning Milankovitch Theory and its relationship to paleoclimate data over the last 800,000 years. The approach taken treats the insolation as it is physically, a time-dependent wave. A parameter free model, based solely on the earth’s celestial motions and the sun’s rays, is presented that partitions the…
