SCC Volume 3.4 The NSIDC website, IPCC’s reports and some scientific papers have announced that the Arctic Sea ice extent, when it is lowest in September month, in recent years has declined dramatically, and in few decades the sea ice…
Volume 3.5 Joseph Fourier discussed the temperature of the earth in two similar memoires (reviews) in 1824 and 1827. An important and long neglected part of this work is his description of the time dependence of the surface energy transfer.…
SCC Volume 3.3. This study develops a very simple climate model, based on the standard lagging formula. The mathematical function is derived in detail. The main purpose is to estimate the e-time of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Many models…
SCC Volume 3.3. In the last decade fundamental theoretical equations were developed for describing and understanding the global average radiative equilibrium state of the Earth-atmosphere system. It is shown that using the well-established laws of radiation physics the key climate…
SCC Volume 3.3 Anthropogenic global warming (AGW) is the prevailing theory of the IPCC for global warming, in which Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are the major drivers, whereas albedo, aerosols, and clouds have had cooling effects, and natural drivers have an…
SCC Volume 3.2. The first humans probably arrived at Sola in SW Norway just after the brutally cold Younger Dryas (YD) period, as the first neolithic tools found there are from around 11,500 years BP. This period is also called…
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…
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…
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,…
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…
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…
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…
SCC Volume 2.3. Present day treatises dealing with weather and climate often use seemingly physical quantities, while they are in fact averages of such. Inserting these into formulas is physically not permitted. It leads to an assumption of the magnitude…
SCC Volume 2.3. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) classifies the human influence on ourclimate as extremely likely to be the main reason of global warming over the last decades. Particularly anthropogenic emissions of carbon compounds, with carbon dioxide…
SCC Volume 2.3. The observed present rate of uplift in Scandinavia increases from zero on the western coast of Norway to ~1 cm/yr in the Baltic Sea area. This domelike uplift is generally assumed to be the result of glacial…
SCC Volume 2.3. Transition from interglacial (Eem) to glaciation (Weichsel), to the current interglacial (warm) period, Holocene, including changing sea-levels: transgressions and regressions. Abstract Part 2 reviews some of the pertinent knowledge about ancient climate variations, from ~ 70 Ma…
