Huijser: Global Warming and the “impossible” Radiation Imbalance
Any perturbation in the radiative balance at the top of the atmosphere (TOA) that induces a net energy flux into- or out of Earth’s thermal system will result in a surface temperature response Correspondence: until a new equilibrium is reached. According to the Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW)hypothesis which attributes global warming solely to rising concentrations…
Grabyan: Global Atmospheric CO2 Lags Temperature by 150 yr between 1 and 1850 AD
This study investigates whether atmospheric CO₂ precedes or lags global temperature changes over the past 2000 yr, using both visual and statistical analyses. A parallel evaluation of Total Solar Irradiance (TSI) and temperature was conducted to assess the influence of solar forcing on climate variability. Temperature, CO₂, and TSI data were drawn from many well-established…
Harde and Schnell: The Negative Greenhouse Effect – Part II
For our studies of the greenhouse gas emission – different to a simpler experimental set-up with a horizontally positioned Styrofoam box described in Part I – here we use an arrangement consisting of a vertically placed cylinder with uniformly heated walls and an opening at the bottom, which is sealed by an infrared-transparent foil. Below…
