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…
SCC Volume 2.3. The source of atmospheric CO2 variations is poorly understood. At Mauna Loa Hawaii, atmospheric CO2 has been recorded from 1959. This is a short period for a reliable variability signature identification. From the 19th century, atmospheric CO2…
SCC Volume 2.3. The question is: What fraction of the observed increase in atmospheric CO2 since 1750 is due to the burning of fossil fuels? Is it close to 1.0 as the IPCC and the climate policy makers would have…
SCC Volume 2.3. Unlike elsewhere on the globe, temperature in the tropics has increased systematically. From observed tropical temperature, numerical simulations have reproduced the observed evolution of atmospheric CO2, including its annual cycle. Much the same has followed empirically from…
SCC Volume 2.2. A new data set of annually averaged CO2 background levels directly measured from 1826 to 1960 is presented. It is based on a selection process of about 100,000 single samplesfrom more than 200,000 available near ground on…
SCC Volume 2.2. Observed ocean and land CO2 data show both seasonal and spatial variations, where latitude is the most important in addition to the increase in time. A simple, approximative corrective procedure is proposed which will be of use…
SCC Volume 2.2. On Christmas Day 2008, I received an e-mail from the German researcher Ernst-Georg Beck. He asked me to analyze an atmospheric CO2 time-series from 1820 to 1960. A CO2 time-series from 1820 was something special. Next day…
SCC Volume 2.2. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change classifies the human influence on our climate as extremely likely to be the main reason of global warming over the last decades. Particularly anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide are made responsible…
The question is: What fraction of the observed increase in atmospheric CO2 since 1750 is due to the burning of fossil fuels? Is it close to 1.0 as the IPCC and the climate policy makers would have us believe by…
SCC Volume 2.1. The organization Climate Realists of Norway was started in 2009 and part of our activity is topresent facts about climate and climate change in public meetings. It soon became evident that many of our members wanted to…
SCC Volume 2.1. The past 150 years show that affordable and reliable energy is key to financing basic needs, such as food, health, sanitation, housing, electricity, and education. The past 150 years also show that more CO2 is beneficial for…
SCC Volume 2.1. The book’s main message is this: It has never been shown that human emission of the gas of life drives global warming. Large bodies of science that don’t fit the narrative have been ignored by IPCC, COP…
