Wrong again Deatherage, CO2 emits in selected bands, in the earth's atmosphere at about 270 K it emits predominantly in the 15 micron band, it does not emit over the Planck black body distribution. On that basis alone your analysis is flawed, your hypothetical sphere of air would be emitting via the CO2 and H2O (assuming it's not dry air) bands not blackbody. By the way recheck your geometry a few errors there! The light emitted doesn't follow Stefan-Boltzmann, the emission is an integral over all the lines in each band multiplied by the Einstein coefficient for spontaneous emission, the concentration of the emitting species. > > The sun radiates with distribution of frequencies nearly perfectly > with Planck's distribution law.

Good theory. A bit better than mine in some ways because sea-levels followed temperatures by quite a few thousand years at the end of the ice age. Lesson learnt I will stick to criticising your hypothesis. Page 446 of the IPCC report "the explanation of glacial-interglacial CO2 variations remains a difficult attribution problem." So you could explain the high temperature braking of the positive feedback by saying the greenhouse effect would tend to saturate, reducing the loop gain. That leaves the asymmetry of the effect, which is too abrupt on the warming side compared to the cooling side. > > <pgarr...(a)acay.com.au> wrote > > > And I open a fifth front. > > > 5) Why did ice-ages start 3 million years ago? > > Did they?

How can anyone get any peace with all this mental masturbation going on??? Here are some charts of what you are actually talking about. There is no evidence whatsoever of this 'feedback'. If this were true, once the CO2 began to rise, the temperature gradient would become steeper. It does not. The temperature is not affected at all by the CO2 levels. The CO2 follows the temperature. The temperature does not abide at all to CO2 levels, especially at the times that it begins to fall. If the CO2 were maintaining temperature as is claimed, the temperature would not fall in such a disregardless way to concentration levels. The fact is clearly established that the temperature rises affect the exchange of CO2 between the ocean and atmosphere. This natureal exchange is about 300 billion tons annually. 300 billion tons released from the ocean, 300 billion tons absorbed by the ocean. Either due to temperature change in the ocean, or by the greater circulation caused by warming, the fact is that temperature affects CO2 levels. There is no evidence, only theoretical surmise, that the CO2 affects temperature. Nowhere can a quantitive analyses be derived for any of either of yours mental masturbation. In fact, the ice core data is proof of the invalidity of AGW. http://www.daviesand.com/Choices/Precautionary_Planning/Closer_Look/index.html http://www.daviesand.com/Choices/Precautionary_Planning/New_Data/ KDeatherage > > > > <pgarr...(a)acay.com.au> wrote > > > > And I open a fifth front. > > > > 5) Why did ice-ages start 3 million years ago? > > > Did they?

KD, I don't follow you there. Could you describe an experiment that would show this effect? IOW, are you talking about radiation shining into the cell, heat being applied to a wall, or what? Is the energy input as radiative transfer through a transparent window or conduction? Is the gas flowing? If you're talking about thermal conductivity of gases, it approaches zero as the pressure drops. That's why a Dewar works. If you're talking about absorption of radiation, in a transparent gas, the transmission should be independent of pressure since there is no absorption at all. So I'm lost. Can you explain? > > This proves that the energy is NOT being transfered by collisions of the > molecules. If you are talking about transmitting radiation through a transparent gas, I don't think many would argue with that. > If the energy is not being transferred by the energy of collisions, it > must be being transfered by a radiation field within the gas. > > This means that O2 and N2 absorb infrared energy of the continouse > spectra of the thermal frequencies of less energy than 2um. I don't see how you come to that conclusion. If O2 and N2 did absorb IR, the atmosphere would be opaque to those frequencies, and weather satellite IR images show it's not. Would a "radiation field" require any interaction with molecules to transfer energy?

I think they are way overstating the magnitude of the effect of traces of CO2 compared to thousands of times more water vapor. And they are invoking dubious positive feedback properties of WV while ignoring its obvious negative feedbacks from cloud formation. I agree it looks totally bogus, biased, and unscientific. But I don't think your somewhat unorthodox physics are going to be easy to sell. I'm on the same side of the issue as you, and I still don't understand it yet. It may be a terminology or semantics issue, but it's not clear to me. It's not sufficient for them to simply show CO2 is a GHG, they also have to convincingly show exactly how traces can overwhelm the natural stabilizing effect of water phase changes. And climate models so far are neither clear nor convincing. So if you want to try to explain your concepts to me, I'll try to understand. If I see holes, I'll tell you where I disagree and why. Fair enough? |
