The present issue 6.1 covers publications accepted during the first half of 2026. It contains five research articles, two essays, one invited address and one corrigendum. The contributions address a broad range of subjects, including paleoclimatic temperature variability, the statistical…
This study uses a specialized laboratory configuration to examine how strongly convection can influence atmospheric radiation effects and to what extent greenhouse gases are causing warming or cooling under controlled conditions. A cylindrical apparatus is used, containing a heated, blackened…
Solar control of global warming and cooling (Svensmark Theory) is supported by the similarity of two published graphs: (1) average near-surface air-temperature for the last 9,000 years (from proxies and, since 1880, NASA thermometer charts); and (2) solar-magnetic output (proxies).…
Science of Climate Change (SCC) is an independent, peer-reviewed, open-access scholarly journal dedicated to advancing rigorous scientific understanding of the Earth’s climate system and its governing processes. The journal is founded on the principle that climate science progresses through continuous…
This paper is a summary of recent results of the author, documented in 14 peer-reviewed journal papers and other research items published in the last 5 years. A list of collected telltale signs makes it obvious that “climate science” is…
The predominant view attributes climate change to altered atmospheric radiative properties caused by greenhouse gases and aerosols. This paper proposes an additional thermodynamic framework, emphasizing the role of meridional (horizontal) energy transport between the tropics and poles. Because the greenhouse…
This presentation, delivered at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (Furfari 2025), provides a critical examination of the European Union’s current energy policy, with a particular focus on decarbonisation and the rapid integration of renewable energy technologies. Drawing on decades of…
When it comes to public consensus, climate science is in a critical phase. On the one hand, publishing climate scientists do show a massively overwhelming consensus on what causes presentday climate change, on the other side, climate sceptics categorically deny…
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 …
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…
It is a simple and seductive argument: (1) we are burning fossil fuels and emitting CO 2 into the atmosphere; (2) CO2 is a greenhouse gas; (3) the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is increasing; (4) the world is…
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…
Professor Kvalheim, Distinguished Audience, Ladies and Gentlemen, many thanks for bringing me to Norway. As the recently appointed second president of Clintel, I have received several invitations from Clintel supporters in foreign countries, but yours is the first I have…
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,…
Real observations show a slight decrease of global temperature in 2025 compared with the previous ten years. Some stations in the Arctic show warming, but most are fairly stable. The Arctic Ocean is cooling to considerable depth, while the tropical…
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…
