SCC Volume 3.2. Recently a compilation of almost 100.000 historical data about chemical CO2 concentration measurements between 1826 and 1960 has been published as post mortem memorial edition of the late Ernst-Georg Beck. This compilation can give important insight in…
SCC Volume 3.2. Abstract 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…
SCC Volume 3.2. Abstract This paper continues the debate sponsored by Science of Climate Change on the root causes of atmospheric CO2 rise during the last century. A little progress has been made in finding common ground, but not very…
SCC Volume 3.2. The late Ernst-Georg Beck wrote a monumental article titled “Reconstruction of Atmospheric CO2 Background Levels since 1826 from Direct Measurements near Ground “, published in this journal in 2022 (Beck, 2022). Beck‘s results are controversial, especially because…
SCC Volume 3.2. Ernst Georg Beck estimated a CO2 background time-series from 1826 to 1960. In a discussion from Ferdinand Engelbeen, he has a comment ha many of them are unsuited for background CO2-levels. The huge CO2 level around 1940…
SCC Volume 3.2. Several comments can be made on the reconstruction of the historical CO2 data made by the late Ernst Beck (Beck, 2010, published in SCC 2022 [21]). While most chemical methods used were fairly accurate (+/- 10 ppmv),…
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 3.2. Several oscillating atmospheric/oceanic systems (e.g., the El Niño/Southern Oscillation, QuasiBiennial Oscillation, Pacific Decadal Oscillation, and North Atlantic Oscillation) are largely responsible for the Earth’s weather and climate. Two fluid structures (the oceans and atmosphere) envelope the solid…
In this issue we start with an essay by Richard Mackey on how the many observed oscillating
atmospheric and oceanic systems are largely responsible for the Earth’s weather and climate.
The Earth’s rotation forces the oscillations and is the primary reason for the climate change we
observe. This is completely overlooked by IPCC:
