Paper 1: Paleoclimate Implications |
 The revised paper "Paleoclimate Implications for Human-Made Climate Change" has been submitted for publication in "Climate Change at the Eve of the Second Decade of the Century: Inferences from Paleoclimate and Regional Aspects: Proceedings of Milutin Milankovitch 130th Anniversary Symposium" (Eds. A. Berger, F. Mesinger and D Šijački), Springer. It is currently being refereed. This revised version has also been published in arXiv:1105.0968v2 [physics.ao- Thanks for comments on the first draft. The writing has been tightened up, but the paper is longer because the section on climate sensitivity has been moved into this paper from paper 2 ("Earth's Energy Imbalance"). That will make paper 2 a more manageable size, and climate sensitivity really belonged in paper 1 anyhow. The style of paper 1 is hybrid, trying to make it understandable to a broad audience, yet parts of it (e.g., climate sensitivity) are necessarily technical. Paper 2 ("Earth's Energy Imbalance") should be revised and submitted to a journal within the next few weeks, whereupon we will be able to finish paper 3 ("The Case for Young People and Nature").

I am quite a time in climate physics - coming from spectroscopy and astrophysics.
ReplyDeleteI am observing the political issues with great grieve in particular "Lord" C.Monckton touring in Australia ... evidently on behalf ot the carbon industry ...
Therefore it is good to have some platforms like this one which emphasize scientific evidence
Many real scientists are aggrieved by Monckton's appearance in Australia and he will also be showing up in New Zealand.
ReplyDeletePatrick Michaels showed up in Brazil a few years ago and was given the important first 3 yellow pages in Veja Magazine. I remember that one Brazilian subscriber was so angry about this that he cancelled his subscription and posted this fact on the Internet.
Patrick Michaels makes over $4 million per year doing this type of dirty work.
Monckton is obviously a nut to those who understand physics, but for the general audience he can be quite entertaining and even believable, unfortunately.
