H2O decreasing while CO2 rises !
Dire predictions of global warming all rely on positive feedback from water vapor. The argument goes that as surface temperatures rise so more water will evaporate from the oceans thereby amplifying temperatures because H2O itself is a strong GHG. Climate models … Continue reading

Climate sensitivity reduces by ~20% if using the correct TSI value
The latest value of TSI is 1360.8 W/m^2 (ref. Kopp & Lean 2011) measured by SORCE TIM. This is considerably lower than the ~1367 W/m^2 based on previous data that is used in most GCM models, including GISS model II. This lower … Continue reading

Getting to grips with GISS GCM
I have downloaded the GISS GCM Model II [1] and have begun to investigate it. Since all the predictions of future AGW depend on the results from such models I decided I really needed to understand just how they work. … Continue reading
