• Garbai et. al: Absorption of Thermal Radiation in the Atmosphere in the Presence of CO₂

    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 community. Some researchers deny the existence of a significant greenhouse effect and its influence on…

  • Klaus: Clintel and Climate Change: A Few Remarks from a Klimarealist

    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 accepted. I don’t know why. Perhaps because your invitation, as well as the talk with…

  • Szarka: What is Climate Science?

    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, climate system, climate change. Historical documents (among others, the birth document of the Consensus in…

  • Humlum: The State of the Climate 2025 Global and Arctic

    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 and Antarctic oceans have a slight surface warming. The sea level trend is not changing…

  • Zharkova: Modern Grand Solar Minimum (2020-2053)

    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 dynamo with the dipole magnetic sources. The two magnetic waves revealed a noticeable phase shift…

  • Báder: Surface Energy Balance of the Danube Region

    The surface of the Earth is heated by solar radiation (shortwave radiation) passing through the atmosphere. The air near the earth’s surface is heated from below using this energy converting the shortwave radiation to other forms. According to the law of conservation of energy, the incoming and outgoing energies are equal. Continents are warming faster…
