SCC Volume 2.1. 1. IntroductionHerring periods and cod periods along the Norwegian coast have been known for more than 1000 years. Periods of growth in the fisheries, have formed the basis for settlement, industrialization, economic growth, and wealth. Periods, when…
SCC Volume 2.1. To figure out what is driving the climate change it is vital to observe long climate series. In this contribution I will report about data collection and analysis of a climate series covering the position of the…
SCC Volume 2.1. We can divide the land climate in two categories: the continental climate with warm summers and cold winters, and the maritime climate with cool summers and mild winters. This is a report of a project where we…
SCC Volume 2.1. Outlining a few past geological events is useful to clarify the overall importance of climatic variations, and to place our perception of modern changes in a broader context. During an interglacial-glacial cycle, lasting for about 100 ka…
SCC Volume 2.1. The term “cryosphere” refers to the frozen water regions on the Earth: e.g., glaciers, snowcovered regions, sea ice and permafrost regions. Glaciologists define an “ice age” for the Earth as periods where permanent ice sheets are present…
SCC Volume 2.1. This talk is devoted to the science of the Oceans with special reference to the Gulf Stream Beat. Forcing of the ocean circulation system is controlled by the planetary beat on the Sun, Moon, and the Earth.…
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…
SCC Volume 2.1. The existence or non-existence of the so-called atmospheric greenhouse effect continuously dominates the extremely emotional discussion about a human impact on global warming. Most scientists agree with the fundamental greenhouse theory, but like their opponents they are…
SCC Volume 1.2. Morten Jødal in Memoriam Morten Jødal was Chairman of the Board of Norwegian Climate Realists and was the chief- organizer of the Oslo Conference on Natural Variability and Tolerance. He died suddenly on September 9, 2021. We…
SCC Volume 1.1 Book Review The book Hot Talk, Cold Science is a «must» for everybody who wants to know the background for today’s climate hysteria. In addition, it gives an updated summary of how little we understand about the…
SCC Volume 1.1 Book Review Western societies are taking a u-turn. We are abandoning the basis of modern civilization, and what created the industrial revolution: cheap fossil fuels. We are running to become zero emitters of carbon dioxide, in just…
SCC Volume 1.2 Classical mathematicians valued simplicity, settling such complex questions as the irrationality of √2 by elementary methods. Today, too, refractory problems in pure as well as applied math- ematics are resoluble by simple, Classical methods. For instance, though…
By Geir Hasnes, Christopher Monckton of Brenchley, Don Easterbrook, Göran Henriksson, Bob Lind and Jan-Erik Solheim. SCC Volume 1.1 In Memoriam Nils-Axel Mörner (Niklas among friends) was born on March 17, 1938 in Stockholm, Sweden. He took his Ph.D. in…
SCC Volume 1.2 A basic assumption of climate change made by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is natural CO2 stayed constant after 1750 and human CO2 dominated the CO2 increase. IPCC’s basic assumption requires human CO2…
SCC Volume 1.2 Unlike much of the Earth, surface temperature in the tropics underwent a systematic and sustained increase during the satellite era. Due to the temperature dependence of surface processes which regulate CO2 emission, that long-term change should exert…
SCC Volume 1.1 Abstract When meteorologists with today’s great computing power can only predict the weather with some degree of certainty about 3 days into the future, how can we then expect climate scientists to predict the climate 100 years…
