Kovács: On Geological CO2 Emissions
Geological CO₂ emissions from intraplate regions remain poorly quantified despite their relevance to the long-term carbon cycle. Observations from the Pannonian Basin indicate measurable mantle-derived degassing, highlighting the need for improved constraints on non-volcanic geological CO₂ fluxes. Continue reading …
Huszar et. al: Argued Answers to Questions about the Climate Situation and Energy Production
Nowadays, public discourse and scientific interest seem to be dominated by one topic: climate change. The facts are stubborn, extraordinary atmospheric and geological phenomena have multiplied in recent decades and are occurring with unusual intensity. It is foolish to deny their objectivity. However, a meaningful discourse could be conducted about the underlying causes. Are the…
Garbai et. al: Absorption of Thermal Radiation in the Atmosphere in the Presence of CO₂
The paradigmatic challenges of our time include the presence of greenhouse gases in the atmos- phere, their influence on the Earth’s climate, global warming, and the green transition. The assessment of these issues and their relative importance divides the scientific community. Some researchers deny the existence of a significant greenhouse effect and its influence on…
Szarka: What is Climate Science?
Around the world, in the field of environment, as connected to energy and climate, many common concepts are inherently confusing or have become confused. This paper highlights some of the related contradictions in such very basic concepts as science, climate, climate system, climate change. Historical documents (among others, the birth document of the Consensus in…
Zharkova: Modern Grand Solar Minimum (2020-2053)
The two Principal Components (eigen vectors) derived with Principal Component Analysis from the solar background magnetic field defining two largest magnetic waves of the poloidal field of the Sun are shown to be generated in two layers by the solar dynamo with the dipole magnetic sources. The two magnetic waves revealed a noticeable phase shift…
Báder: Surface Energy Balance of the Danube Region
The surface of the Earth is heated by solar radiation (shortwave radiation) passing through the atmosphere. The air near the earth’s surface is heated from below using this energy converting the shortwave radiation to other forms. According to the law of conservation of energy, the incoming and outgoing energies are equal. Continents are warming faster…
Szarka: Conference “Beyond the Climate Change Consensus”
This is an introductory article to the papers based on presentations at the conference “Beyond the Climate Change Consensus” (BCCC, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, December 8, 2025) and its pre-event. It was a unique symbol: unprecedented for a country’s national academy to provide an official scientific forum on climate without censorship. In this paper the…
Nordin: The Role of Science in Climate Politics
I gave a short introduction to the climate conference in Mölndal 26-27 October 2024. The theme of the conference was “Science and Politics” so I picked up a couple of basic philosophical words of wisdom for this occasion. The first sentence comes from the 18th century philosopher David Hume with the following logic statement:¬ (Is…
Volume 4.3 December 2024
This is a special issue of the Journal Science of Climate Change (SCC) which contains programme and extended abstracts from the International CLINTEL Scientific Conference in Prague, November 12 and 13, 2024, in the premises of the Chamber of Deputies of the Czech Republic. It also contains a climate declaration given by the end of…
Kalendra : Conference: Climate Change, Facts, Myths and Science
I am very pleased to welcome you here in the Chamber of Deputies of the Parliament of the Czech Republic for an international scientific conference organised by the CLINTEL (Climate Intelligence) Foundation. Our conference follows on from previous ones held in Pribram-Prague (2015), London (2016) and Porto (2018). Unfortunately, there will be no further meetings…
Žáček : Climate Variability in the Mountainous Region of Kyrgyzstan and its Origin
In the years 2007 – 2010, a project was implemented in remote areas of Kyrgyzstan aimed at analyzing the risks and mitigation of the consequences of potential dam bursting of alpine lakes as a result of climate change. As part of this project, climatic data were gathered and evaluated, capturing their progress over longer periods…
Monckton et al. : An Error of Temperature Feedback Analysis
After correcting an error that arose in 1984 when climatologists borrowed, misunderstood and misapplied feedback formulism from control theory in engineering physics, global warming will continue (till hydrocarbon reserves are exhausted) at the net-beneficial 0.15 Kdecade observed rate, half the long-predicted but erroneous 0.3 K decade midrange rate. Continue reading …
Fűrst : Mathematical Models are Weapons of Mass Destruction
In 2007, the total value of an exotic form of financial insurance called Credit Default Swap (CDS) reached $67 trillion. This number exceeded the global GDP in that year by about fifteen percent. In other words – someone in the financial markets made a bet greater than the value of everything produced in the world…
Kalenda : What was the First? Temperature or CO2?
This presentation and study was made in memory of Prof. Murry Salby (1951 – 2022), who in his textbook of climatology pointed out the marginal influence of humanity on the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and who in lectures in Sydney 2011, Edinburgh 2013, Essen 2015, London 2015, 2016 and Hamburg 2018 deduced…
Koutsoyiannis : The Relationship between Atmospheric Temperature and Carbon Dioxide Concentration
Human-produced CO₂ by fossil fuel combustion, combined with the rising atmospheric CO₂ concentration and the observed temperature increase, enabled a compelling narrative to be constructed, in which these three facts, in that order, formed a chain of causality. The narrative has been embraced by global political elites to promote their interests. It has also become…
