Roth: About the Origin of CO2 in the Atmosphere.
A study published by the CO2 Coalition claims that the rise in atmospheric CO2 concentration is manmade. This claim is examined here and rejected. There are two fundamental shortcomings in the study: It is based on an inappropriate model, that is far from reality, and it ignores that the atmosphere is an open system. In…
Roy Clark: A Nobel Prize for Climate Model Errors
Volume 4.1 When the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded part of the 2021 Nobel Prize for Physics to Syukuro Manabe they failed to recognize that the climate models used to justify the award were invalid. When the CO2 concentration was increased in the 1967 model developed by Manabe and Wetherald it created warming as…
Eike Roth: Climate: Man or Nature
Volume 3.5 From a purely logical perspective, humans can only be the main cause of the ongoing warming if two preconditions are met: CO2 must have a strong climate impact and the large amount of CO2 in the atmosphere must primarily be anthropogenic. However, the fulfillment of both preconditions is scientifically controversial. Controversy regarding the strength of the…
Richard Mackey: Continental Drift and IPCC
Volume 3.5 This essay examines how in the twentieth century established scientists blocked the development of scientific work about the theory of continental drift. There are many similarities between this blocking behaviour and the manner in which the IPCC and the scientists who believe the IPCC, block scientific work that is not consistent with the IPCC…
Richard Mackey: The Earth’s Decadal Rotation and Climate Dynamics
SCC Volume 3.2. Several oscillating atmospheric/oceanic systems (e.g., the El Niño/Southern Oscillation, QuasiBiennial Oscillation, Pacific Decadal Oscillation, and North Atlantic Oscillation) are largely responsible for the Earth’s weather and climate. Two fluid structures (the oceans and atmosphere) envelope the solid Earth. A rotating fluid generates waves (inertial waves) that flow inside thefluid, not on the…
Howard “Cork” Hayden, Some Climate Simplicities
SCC Volume 2.1. Question: If I add heat to something, how much does the temperature rise? Answer: It depends. If you add heat to ice water, you melt ice, but the temperature remains constant until allthe ice is gone. The same amount of heat that would raise the temperature of a kilogramof water by 1ºC…
