Looking at CCSM 3.0 IPCC AR4 Simulations

Solar forcing data used in the models does not match actual solar forcing data collected by the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics of the University of Colorado, found here:

This assumes 100% of the climate scientists believe that "Climate change" is real, because they say it is either affected by humans or not.

>>
>>130832883
Always found this funny because I ask to see the published papers that prove their belief (and thats what this poll is about, not evidence but their belief) and they never cough it up. Climate change is real, and it very well may be due to Human activity but it is NOT settled science and in fact there isn't a lot of evidence either way because so many of the studies are just 'inconclusive'. About the most commonly cited pieces of evidence are reddit tier graphs of temperature vs time showing it's hone up more recently but correlation doesn't mean causation and it has done that in the past too so there really is no known causal link, right now.
>>
Now here is NOAA, saying that we dont know enough about the most abundant greenhouse gas in our atmosphere to understand its total effect on climate and climate change, notably the positive feedback loop

https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/monitoring-references/faq/greenhouse-gases.php?section=watervapor

"However, huge scientific uncertainty exists in defining the extent and importance of this feedback loop. As water vapor increases in the atmosphere, more of it will eventually also condense into clouds, which are more able to reflect incoming solar radiation (thus allowing less energy to reach the Earth's surface and heat it up). The future monitoring of atmospheric processes involving water vapor will be critical to fully understand the feedbacks in the climate system leading to global climate change. As yet, though the basics of the hydrological cycle are fairly well understood, we have very little comprehension of the complexity of the feedback loops. Also, while we have good atmospheric measurements of other key greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane, we have poor measurements of global water vapor, so it is not certain by how much atmospheric concentrations have risen in recent decades or centuries, though satellite measurements, combined with balloon data and some in-situ ground measurements indicate generally positive trends in global water vapor."

Please dont misunderstand me, Im not advocating as a "pro-climate change" guy. I was simply pointing out that there was a model in the AR4 simulations that performed very well.

>We analyze the evolution of the scientific consensus on anthropogenic global warming (AGW) in the peer-reviewed scientific literature, examining 11944 climate abstracts from 1991–2011 matching the topics 'global climate change' or 'global warming'. We find that 66.4% of abstracts expressed no position on AGW, 32.6% endorsed AGW, 0.7% rejected AGW and 0.3% were uncertain about the cause of global warming. Among abstracts expressing a position on AGW, 97.1% endorsed the consensus position that humans are causing global warming.

In short, 97% of 32.6%. It seems that the jury is out on that one. And the sample size wasn't even comprehensive either (<1% of all papers on the subject were analyzed). In short, that consensus bullshit is a forced meme that desperately needs to die.

Proving the science wrong should be easy enough. Proving a conspiracy true is difficult, no matter what evidence you have

The pH of sea water can be measured although there are complications due the presence of dissolved salts and other factors. On average, surface sea water is mildly basic, about pH of 8.1, although the measured pH can vary by as much as 0.3 pH units at different times in the same area and from area to area. There is a mathematical relationship between pressures of CO2 (pCO2) and the resulting pH of pure water. This relationship is the basis for the calculation of ocean pH values. Caldeira employed such a formula to conclude that the pH of the oceans had changed by about 0.15 of a unit since 1750. He assumed, without providing any empirical evidence, that the pre-industrial pH was 8.25. This work has been challenged because it is not consistent with observation. The ocean is a very complicated system and does not yield to simple modeling.

DAILY REMINDER

* A doubling of preindustrial CO2, absent any feedbacks, would result in a maximum forcing of +1.2C.

* The General Circulation Models, and the IPCC, predict 2-8C of warming because AGW theory assumes a positive H2O feedback. They assume that if CO2 causes a little warming, the atmosphere will hold more water vapor and that more water vapor will lead to a lot of warming.

* The warming predictions cover such a large range because everyone assumes a different average H2O feedback rate.

* Every GCM based on this assumption has failed to model temperatures for the past 17 years. They are all trending too high.

* In the late 1990's the modelers themselves stated that if they missed their predictions for more then a decade that would falsify AGW theory.

* There is no data to suggest a +H2O feedback either now or in Earth's past.

* If there is no +H2O feedback then we literally have nothing to worry about.

* The average climate change believer knows none of this. Politicians, citizens, activists, surprisingly even a lot of scientists are literally ignorant of the theory and the math. In their mind it's simply "CO2 = bad" and "experts say we're warming faster then ever."

So, earlier I said that PH dropped .1 to 8.1 from 8.2.

You retorted with "but ocean life is very sensitive to ph"

Then I showed you proof that ocean ph can vary by as much as .3 ph depending on the time and location it was taken.

Now, tell me how if there is a natural variation of .3 ph within the ocean, why a .1 drop is catastrophic. it seems well within the natural bounds and variation observed in the ocean.

Also, you ignore the fact that we have had marine life on this planet for hundreds of millions of years and they flourished in an ocean that contained much more co2 than it has now.

That percentage of 100? That's from something like 40 scientists that AGREED TO ANSWER. The poll was sent out to like 2,000 scientists, a hundred or so filled out the poll, and 40 answered, with like 28 saying global warming was real, 8 saying no, the rest saying "no answer"

my point is that natural variation of ocean ph debunks your argument of extreme ph sensitivity.

You also fail to provide any evidence that ocean life cannot tolerate changes in ph as historical evidence shows that the oceans were teeming with life when CO2 levels were much higher than they are today

OP you often don't comprehend what you read do you?
It says climate scientists not all scientists. The science of getting grant money millions to have an unpaid undergrad watch a thermometer is climate science. They're even allowed to throw out data that interferes with getting more grant money.
>Real scientists care about preserving the integrity of accurate research. So when NOAA conveniently forgot to include a 15 year pause in “global warming” in their recent data, hundreds of experts took issue with it. Because they respect science. As real scientists do.

I though probings of arctic ice or some shit showed that in the past the air contained much higher values of CO2 than we do today.

also earth is circleing through hot and cold phases or there would not have been any ice ages.

>>
>>130844489
From your own citation:

"The influence of the magnitude of the reduction in seawater pH is not consistent across taxonomic groups and response variables. Similar to the duration analyzes, the effect of the magnitude of the pH change is only detected in a limited number of analyzes (Table 2). These effects are very small, differ in the sign of the slope, and are often heavily influenced by a few responses, analogous to statistical outliers (Figs S3–S6)."
>>
>>130832883
>97% of scientists

You do realize they leave out the "climate" part of that right? The fuck would a anesthesiologist know about weather science?

Fact: the earth has always gone through fluctuating temps and climate differences. Ice ages are a thing. Man has had no severe adverse effects in global climate. They lie. You're gullible. You don't seem to realize the earth itself is a living organism and if it needs it will heal itself.

>>130844489
CONCLUSION:

We dont know and need more funding to find out!

"Furthermore, understanding whether the remaining variation within taxonomic groups and life stages represents real biological differences among species, locally adapted populations, or acclimatory capacities, rather than experimental error, remains a critical area for future research. Finally, marine organisms of the future will not be subjected to acidification in isolation, and our results suggest that continued research on the concurrent effects of warming and acidification is necessary to forecast the status of marine organisms and communities in the near-future."
>>
>>130844871
Our results reveal reductions in survival, calcification, growth, development, and abundance in response to ocean acidification across a broad range of marine organisms. These results support the findings of previous meta-analyzes.

. In addition, the analyzes reveal significant trait-mediated variation in the sensitivity of marine organisms. In general, heavily calcified organisms, including calcified algae, corals, mollusks, and the larval stages of echinoderms, are the most negatively impacted, whereas crustaceans, fish, fleshy algae, seagrasses and diatoms are less affected or even benefit from acidification.

Although the differences between acidification effects at ambient and elevated temperature do not explain a significant amount of variation, there is a trend towards lower survival, growth and development at elevated temperature. Given the significant variation already attributed to taxonomic groups and life history stages, the inability to detect statistically significant differences does not suggest that increased temperature does not affect the response to ocean acidification. It rather suggests that other sources of variation in these analyzes may be more pronounced than the difference in effect size at ambient and elevated temperatures. However, the trend towards lower survival, growth and development on average at elevated temperatures, suggest that continued research on the combined impacts of acidification and warming may be critical for accurately forecasting marine species responses to acidification in the near future.

1) Lower insurance costs (assuming the landowners can even buy flood insurance)

3) They will be long dead before the the oceans reach the land they are selling today so they will never be held acoutnable

Try selling a 3 million beachfront home while the local newspaper is publishing an article saying that entire beach will be swept away in 70 years. It makes for a poor investment and hurts the value of what they are selling.

Passing a law that restricts the publishing of sea levels recorded after the year 1920 helps their business. They honestly don't care about what happens in 50 let alone 100 years. The money is too good. They will lobby hard for laws to block or deny sea level change so they can keep selling shit land, and politicians support them because it brings short term construction jobs and high property taxes..

Just to illustrate why this is such a political issue in NC in particular. They have a weird "barrier" called the outer banks along their coast. They have ocean on both side and have an obscene amount of high risk beachfront land to sell.

Not only is the topic of sea level rise "banned" but the developers also lobby hard for the state to re-zone areas that have a historic flood risk. If they reclassify a flood zone they can swing it so homeowners are no longer required to buy costly flood insurance. Laws that exist to protect homeowners are being bypassed for profit.

I can't tell you why the solar forcings were inflated.

Also doing nothing about the oceans on the off chance the research shows there is no problem is a reckless way of going about it. Assuming there is a problem and taking steps to combat it is much better than burying your head and waiting for more studies.
>>
>>130849286
>Assuming there is a problem
And there is the problem

When you assume a problem, you have to assume a solution and then you implement said solution and it skews further data collection to determine if there ever was a problem in the first place.

Also, what if your solutions make things worse? Where is your evidence that man made processes to reduce CO2 levels wont over-correct and throw the earth in to a precarious climate position in and of itself.

This is why you wait for facts, not feelings to make policy

To add on, look up a basic chemical reaction between carbon dioxide and water. You dont have to be a tenuous to figure out when you add more of a reactant it creates more of the product.

Do you acknowledge that historically CO2 concentrations and historic temperatures have a strong correlations? Do you acknowledge that our current CO2 concentrations are historically reflective of higher surface temperatures than we currently have, and are still rising?

You are accusing others of cherry picking models, while holding up the scenario that best fits your prerogative. I'm going to guess that you are using satellite readings as your basis for surface temperatures as well.

I'm not saying that the media and common conceptions don't distort the reality, but any detractor who focuses so much on one element, in your case solar forcing in a few simulations, is usually full of shit. You are ignoring the very real scenarios where GHGs are capable of warming the earth to a significant degree. We really haven't had much GHG induced warming yet, but we will.
