This study just confirms what has been known for a long time.

"fallen sky is itself a cause of more sky falling." - DogBerTard

Poor DogBerTard. He didn't even read the article, but feels he magically knows enough to comment on it's content.

Retards are often like that... Spectacularly ignorant about the magnitude of their own ignorance.

Gorebots are now like old Japanese soldiers dug in still on remote Internet terminal islands, believing news reports of the war's end to be mere enemy psyops. I mean, when I can debunk a dead Earth climate model like this using alarmist Jim Hansen's own last (damage control alert!) publication at NASA before retiring as a millionaire, well....

"We suggest that the surge of fossil fuel use, mainly coal, since 2000 is a basic cause of the large increase of carbon uptake by the combined terrestrial and ocean carbon sinks. One mechanism by which fossil fuel emissions increase carbon uptake is by fertilizing the biosphere via provision of nutrients essential for tissue building, especially nitrogen, which plays a critical role in controlling net primary productivity and is limited in many ecosystems and field studies confirm a major role of nitrogen deposition, working in concert with CO2 fertilization, in causing a large increase in net primary productivity of temperate and boreal forests."

Hansen is explaining why emissions are *not* leading to the expected rise in atmospheric CO₂.

Case in point…..you have skillfully identified yourself Herr Vendicar….

Reading the paper is easier with an actual link:
http://www.nature...060.html

Supplement: http://www.nature...0-s1.pdf

"Earth has warmed by only 0.85 degrees Celsius (1.5 degrees Fahrenheit) since pre-industrial times."

Thus alarm is called off! Yo, young mo fo Jimmy Hansen was crying about a *multiple* degree rise already by now based on *less* of a predicted emissions burst (oh, China!), but the actual rise is *below* his best case radical decarbonization scenario, so we got that for free due to the lack of his *assumed* overall positive feedbacks, did we not?

But these scammy rent seekers still dare cry alarm, steal our money and terrify students?

Early Hansen (1986): "Average global temperatures would rise by one-half a degree to one degree Fahrenheit from 1990 to 2000 if current trends are unchanged, according to Hansen's findings. Hansen said the global temperature would rise by another 2 to 4 degrees in the following decade."
[Reference: http://news.googl...mp;hl=en ]

This work is funded by Princeton's literally titled "Carbon Mitigation Initiative" with a dozen years of annual reports and a professional logo:
http://s6.postimg...mage.jpg

Even their own web site makes my fertilization effect point in a banner ("Without Plants Earth Would Cook"):
http://oi39.tinyp...9829.jpg

So where are Jim Hansen's plants in their ocean/landmass calculations? We could check, given climate model code, but that usually takes up to a decade of Freedom of Information Act prying, assuming it's federally funded in the first place but the British Petroleum logo also on their web site makes you wonder about seemingly ironic energy interests:
http://cmi.princeton.edu/

Is BP in the low emissions fracking business? Yup!!!:
http://ecowatch.c...e-event/

If you name your whole institute to embody alarm, what will your computers say for you?

It is not fantasies, no calculations necessary : look at the measured past climat in ice and sediments, over the past 5 or 3 millions years, ( wikipedia ), and you observe that the temperature and sea level have been more and more oscillating, with the same variation of solar heating,. This proves that the earth climat became more and more unstable with respect to the same variations of solar light (Milankovich). Thus the small solar heat to due to human CO2 and CH4, a variation of the same order,, with a small effect 5 millions years ago, will have a dramatic effect, stronger than the last warming, 125000 years ago, with 3°C more and sea level 5m higher than to day !!
This is dramatic, because when ice melt, it is irreversible, impossible to stop the rising seas, over several 1000years, like between 16000 and 6000 years ago, rising of 120m, impossible to stop by any means, even supressing all human CO2 !!
Our children will live with the seas rising steadily,

It will only warm the atmosphere until the end of the current interglacial which is due any day now. Then it will be a candle in the wind.

"Gorebots are now like old Japanese soldiers" - NikkieTard

NikkieTard has a history of posing graphs that clearly show an upward slope and claiming that he sees a downward slope.

Normally I would call such a person, a Liar. But in NikkieTard's case, his multiple arrests, some for armed assault, and bizarre public behaviour, make it perfectly clear that he is mentally disturbed.

He makes a wonderful poster child for the Denialists.

Indeed Vendicar(E), we are each contemporary poster kids of a culture war. I'm glad you have cleared that up for everyone. I, a Ph.D. in carbon chemistry (Columbia/Harvard) and you, one of the most notorious old school Interner trolls of all time, lacking any background in hard science, evidently, just some computer programming struggles back in the days of Usenet where you also oddly infested alt.machines.cnc. As I tap this on an iPhone I can take a quick shot of the servo motor CNC router with an 80K RPM super magnet spindle and air vortex cooling I keep in my fabrication studio down the street from Columbia (where my old lab mate was recent chairman of the chemistry department), two blocks from Hansen's Hollow above Tom's Diner:
http://s6.postimg...mage.jpg

And today you inspired me by plotting HadCRUT4, Vendicar(E) to coin a new nickname for Phil Jones:

IN 2012 PHIL "HIDE THE DECLINE" JONES BECAME PHIL "HIDE THE INCLINE" JONES OF A SAUDI UNIVERSITY, up-adjusting HadCRUT3 into HadCRUT4:

Saudi Prince Jones:

CLIMATEGATE 101: "For your eyes only…Don't leave stuff lying around on ftp sites – you never know who is trawling them. The two MMs have been after the CRU station data for years. If they ever hear there is a Freedom of Information Act now in the UK, I think I'll delete the file rather than send to anyone….Tom Wigley has sent me a worried email when he heard about it – thought people could ask him for his model code. He has retired officially from UEA so he can hide behind that." – Phil Jones to Michael "Hockey Stick" Mann

"The polar bears will be fine." - ShoTard quoting Freeman Dyson

You are quoting Alzheimer disease Tardieboy. Dyson is 91 years old, and has forgotten that his own research team - the Jason Project - came to the came conclusions as the IPCC, back in the 70's.

"up-adjusting HadCRUT3 into HadCRUT4:" - NikkieTard

HadCRUT 4 has greater coverage of the polar regions and therefore naturally shows more warming since the poles are warming faster than the rest of the planet.

HadCRUT 3 is less "global" than HadCRUT4.

Do those facts upset you?

Awwww.... You poor Boy.

Here is a picture to make you feel better....

http://www.woodfo...90/trend

"Saudi Prince Jones:" - NikkieTard

I'm not sure why you think that a picture of Phil Jones with a Saudi Prince is in any way negative.

Are you a Racist as well as having a history of armed assault, and being arrested for Child Molestation?

I rather like the warmer winters

Will you like the bigger storms, the higher food prices (due to more frequent droughts), the mass immigration movements from south to north and the wars for water, though?

antialias, are you even serious, or are you just parroting Gorebot AstroTurf brochures?

"Will you like the bigger storms, the higher food prices (due to more frequent droughts), the mass immigration movements from south to north and the wars for water, though?"

(1) As fake "former skeptic" Dr. Richard Muller continually points out, the theory says poles will warm more than the equator thus *decreasing* the strength of storms.

(2) Carbon dioxide massively increases food crop yields as warming expands the growing season whereas both artificial energy rationing and burning corn as biofuels are what raise food prices!

(3) Then you don a sandwich board about climate refuges exactly as poster child Tuvala sea level remains steady.

(4) Water wars? But *your* side effectively banned nuclear desalination plants, right? Watts up with that?!

Are you even subtly aware of your state of hypocrisy?

...that your hawk and batt chopping industrialized hills are just Gaian religious crucifixes?

V(E): "HadCRUT 3 is less "global" than HadCRUT4."

Why does HadCRUT4 *diverge* then, Vendicar(E)?
http://www.woodfo.../mean:12

And the South Pole is *cooling* slightly long term, destroying the theory of polar amplification altogether. You are a political fanatic, merely.

Satellites show no warming for almost two decades. Scattered ground thermometers are obsolete in the Space Age. Even if you do rely on HadCRUT4, you are still below Hansen's *best* case scenario from 1988, as emissions have been greater than even his worst case scenario.

You show utterly no concern for environmental issues anyway, only pigheaded trolling which defeats any and all of your technical arguments. A few Gorebots here even think I made you up! My word, you're the world's biggest social idiot of all time. You're the guy who destroyed the whole Al Gore Astroturf campaign here on one of the highest traffic science sites.

Thanks!!!

V(E): "I'm not sure why you think that a picture of Phil Jones with a Saudi Prince is in any way negative."

Oh that's the end game of hypocrisy here, happening as I type, after oil money conspiracy theory was pushed on skeptics. Just wow. Here is the DeSmogBlog smearing Harvard's Willie Soon:

"U.S. oil and coal companies, including ExxonMobil, the American Petroleum Institute, Koch Industries, and the world's largest coal-burning utility, Southern Company, have contributed more than $1 million over the past decade to his research. According to Greenpeace, every grant Dr. Soon has received since 2002 has been from oil or coal interests."

In other words Soon received $100K a year to do research at *Harvard* whereas Phil Jones receives a whole Saudi academic appointment that now joins Climategate University right on his published paper for HadCRUT4 as his associated university.

And then you PLAY THE RACE CARD ON A SCIENCE FORUM, desperately.

V(E)...both Gore and Jones were in the pocket of Arab oil money influence, and both of them had to eventually admit it by accepting hugely public professional donations from Arab oil countries. Even Hansen's NASA is now forced to grovel in their official mission statement:

"When I became the NASA administrator -- or before I became the NASA administrator -- he charged me with three things. One was he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math, he wanted me to expand our international relationships, and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science ... and math and engineering," - Charles Bolden, 2010

(1) Al = Arabic sell out
(2) Phil = Arab sell out
(3) Charles = Arab sell out

Alarmism 101: "Skeptics = Big Oil sell outs."

HYPOCRISY in spades!

Now add media alarm profiteering.

Checkmate.

V(E) begs: "You are quoting Alzheimer disease Tardieboy. Dyson is 91 years old...."

Here Freeman, one of the greatest contemporary physicists, several years ago with great clarity points out that models that focus on the atmosphere and treat poorly understood vegetation as a minor subservient and passive parameter (where the *bulk* of carbon exists in the carbon cycle) get the emphasis exactly backwards:
http://youtu.be/JTSxubKfTBU

But most of all note the desperado's demeanor of typical alarmist Vendicar(E). You dear alarmist reader, he is your spokesperson, a proud Gorebot, seething with desperate hatred so that he be rendered good in the face of mentally constructed evil.

Rigorous application of the scientific method would end this ridiculous fear mongering politicization climate-change hysteria nonesense.

Watts Up With That comments on this study:
http://wattsupwit...t-model/

Bill_W: "I'm glad that they published this important work based on a single climate model. Now they can try the other 75 climate models one at a time and publish 75 more papers. I presume that they picked a model in the middle so they can publish 38 more papers saying it is even worserer than we thought in the last paper. Then if it does get cool, they can start on the climate models on the other end and work backwards. It's called climate simulation masturbation. And we pay for it."

Stuart Elliot: "To take this model seriously means dismissing all lesser previous models, which is a nice start. But there is still a leap of faith…"those were rubbish but this one isn't" / Still, nice to hear the science ain't settled."

Two Labs: "Model outputs are not data. / Will this madness ever end?"

mikelowe2013: "Strange how this turkey thinks that atmospheric warming is likely to continue for hundreds of years after CO2 emissions cease, yet that warming seems to have ceased already even though CO2 continues to rise. Is there something I've missed here, or is he totally delusional / irrational?"

Aside from the fact that thermodynamically it would take 10x the current amount of CO2 for us to even notice, and even then it would drive a different equilibrium.
Aside from the fact the up until recently ~20 years, the Earth's were sinking CO2.
Aside from the fact the Earth's ice has absorbed/melted 2x10^14 joules per year for at least 30 years to get to its current state, and the atmosphere is dynamically retaining the same amount, despite heat capacity being unchanged by CO2.
Yet we still hear about it, and not the simple heat being added.
If you believe the Earth's atmosphere-it's temperature has somehow semi-/permanently changed you must acknowledge that CO2 is hardly the problem.

Just out of curiosity, by your estimation the air in a blast furnace wouldnt begin to get hot until the ore had melted. Is this something you believe?

Increase carbon - It'll get warmer/colder (depending what happens)
Decrease carbon - It'll get warmer/colder (depending what happens)
Same carbon - It'll get warmer/colder (depending what happens)

1998 they said it would warm like mad, 2010 onwards, especially 2013, the IPCC etc have had to admit it's stable, if not declining slightly. So guess what- They scurry off and then say actually, it makes sense that it's getting cooler or the warming is levelling off.

There is literally no way to disprove global warming, as soon as it's predictions don't come true, a magical statistical technique appears that says it should happen, so then all predictions follow this, until the trend changes, and then the same magical technique raises its head to flip round from cooling to warming.

The fact no matter what happens, more/less of variable x y z, you are guaranteed it is "expected" despite not being predicted. When something is literally not disprovable, it becomes a religion, not science.

All sciences are disprovable (hypothetically!)

Evolution - Find a modern day rabbit skeleton next to a T-rex
Germ theory - Contaminate a petri dish and nothing grows / something different grows
Theory of gravity - Something doesn't fall when it should.

The 3 above will never happen, but the point is, hypothetically, they are disprovable. Their are ways and means to disprove them.

Name me what it would take to disprove anthropogenic global warming, to show it is at least HYPOTHETICALLY possible to be disproved.

Name me ONE thing that would disprove it.

Guarantee nobody here does this, because

1. It'll have happened already, thus disproving it, so they won't mention it

2. Because it is a religion, and when asking religious members what it would take to stop believing in their divine being, they say "nothing!"

Headline: "Even if emissions stop, carbon dioxide could warm Earth for centuries"

...you mean like how that's happening now?

http://www.woodfo....7/trend

Strange... I don't see it.

HADCRUT4 says temperatures are up about 0.8°C since 1850. If the models and their 3.2°C claim for the climate sensitivity of CO2 were correct temperatures should have gone up about double that over those 163 years. It hasn't, the models are wrong.

In 1998 the temperature spike was above what the models predicted. The models were wrong.

Today, the temperatures are below what the models predicted. The models are wrong.

The models were wrong in 1998 and they're wrong today.

.you mean like how that's happening now?

Yup

"If the models and their 3.2°C claim for the climate sensitivity of CO2 were correct temperatures should have gone up about double that over those 163 years. It hasn't, the models are wrong. " - SteveNutCase

Sorry TardieBoy but no model claims a sensitivity of 3.2;'C.

All models produce a statistical range of values for their estimates of climate sensitivity.

It will take another 5 years or so for the climate to demonstrate a definitive deviation from the model predictions.

But even if current rates of warming are maintained, we are still in for an additional 1'C of warming by 2100, and then an additional 2'C beyond that as the oceans catch up with the atmosphere.

Well good, because we're about to have one hell of a heavy cold session. Please do remember that we have had cooling since 1998, so we're already half way through.

Of course, as you are religious to climate change, I am sure you won't accept this fact, just like evolution deniers saying the fossils don't prove anything.

Keep your circular logic to yourself thanks.

Let me just say this. We have all read the CRU emails, how many were worried about their model mathematics getting into public knowledge.

As a scientist, I take great pride in figuring things out, and displaying my maths, my methods, my workings, my conclusions, and my admitted limitations to other people, to discuss, discover, debate, and research more. Most scientists, when inventing something, discovering something, learning something, want to publish. They want their data out there. They want their data with their name on it to say "Look, I discovered that". It gives most scientists a massive smile, and a sense of accomplishing in a great subject field this Universe has to offer.

Climate scientists are the opposite. They want their model codes secret, and they dont want to publish or show raw data for many papers, only manipulated data.

Doesn't that raise alarm bells in anyones heads? I know that doesn't disprove AGW. But it speaks volumes about the people researching it....

"Well good, because we're about to have one hell of a heavy cold session" - TripleTard

That seems highly unlikely given that every year in the last 20 years has been in the top ten warmest years ever recorded.

This year will come in as the 7th warmest year in the last 2,000 years, and the temperature trend is up, up, up.

Fundamental science, science that has been known for the last 150 years, Science that is integral to everything that came after it, Science that has been verified by countless experiments and applications, Science that is regularly verified by high school students, That science tells us that adding CO2 to the atmosphere must warm the plant.

Oh please. HadCRUT4 was intentionally manipulated to show increased warming in the late 20th century. And it's not as valued as HadCRUT3, by the scientific community. Since 2012, papers citing HadCRUT3 (only) outnumber HadCRUT4 (only) papers nearly two to one (and a lot of the HadCRUT4 papers are just trying to justify HadCRUT4).

@Uba
No I don't accept it!
It is a term designed to cause dissension and obfuscation.
What would it mean to raise the Earth's temperature? It fluctuates daily, and can vent heat daily. It boggles the intelligent mind to even set a system of conditions where "raising the temperature of the Earth" means anything. Imagine what would happen if you had an array of dense heaters programmed to raise the temp of the Earth everywhere 1 degree, what would they do?
See what I mean?
That we are adding Energy to the Earth system is undeniable, 8.4 nukes worth of energy is semi-irreversibly and quantifiablily dumped into our planet every year.
Warming, if it were happening is a secondary effect to the primary damage.

Wow, yes, I do draw poor conclusions often, then I examine them, realize it and correct.

Oh please. HadCRUT4 was intentionally manipulated to show increased warming in the late 20th century. And it's not as valued as HadCRUT3, by the scientific community. Since 2012, papers citing HadCRUT3 (only) outnumber HadCRUT4 (only) papers nearly two to one (and a lot of the HadCRUT4 papers are just trying to justify HadCRUT4).

Funny isn't it that HadCRUT4 also shows a pause? ...a pause lasting more than a dozen years:

LOL. Even when they TRIED to eliminate the pause, they just couldn't!

Poor Vendi-chatterbot. It just can't stop lying.
Lying is its programming
Lying is what it does.
Lying is what it was made to do.
Lying is the chatterbot way.

algore or Freeman Dyson.

Who do you believe?

Designed by those who benefit from there NOT being resolution.
Energy added vs retained:
At last we have some trade-space!
Thermodynamically, the atmosphere and terra-firma do not retain heat significant amounts of time. Which is why the term "warming" in GW is so objectionable and deliberately contentious. Even psychologically, if there were noticeable warming joe-average could contest.
Ice melting and then not reforming, ergo 6cm increase in the ocean levels, are both not argued much by either side, and definitive proof of energy retention, and if the much more than 30 year trend continues, proof that we perpetually add energy to the system.

PS-I can't believe you are still reading Vendi's posts. He's a cancer on the site, he doesn't hurt if you ignore him. Like his alter-ego NikfromNY, and whomever else they are...

What does a pause mean? It means some kind of change has occurred. LeChatlier's Principle.
Well, what is it?
It may be simply that just as an ice-cube melts faster as it gets smaller, and so the polar and other ice reservoirs are able to dump cooling water into the Earth-system faster. Winds have increased, which means heat is being transferred more rapidly.
Or perhaps using corn and non-fossil fuel sources are adding to a zero-sum increase in heat, I even suspect that we recycle better, have you noticed that water bottles burn very cleanly?
Interesting times.

And who are "they?"

So it's that it's contestable that bothers you? If it's not contestable, how is it provable?

How is this proof of anything? Did you not know sea levels have been rising for thousands of years (hence the lack of argument)?

Indeed.

Global warming, by definition, stopped about 16+or- years ago.

It may be simply that just as an ice-cube melts faster as it gets smaller, and so the polar and other ice reservoirs are able to dump cooling water into the Earth-system faster.

What are you talking about? Antarctic ice is setting records, and Arctic ice is doing okay too.

Winds have increased, which means heat is being transferred more rapidly.

What winds, where?

Or perhaps using corn and non-fossil fuel sources are adding to a zero-sum increase in heat, I even suspect that we recycle better,

Renewables are only a small fraction of total energy consumption.

have you noticed that water bottles burn very cleanly?

Burning plastics releases toxins into the environment.

Interesting times.

I can't help but notice you post a lot of unsubstantiated assertions. Is AGW all about "believing" then?

@Uba,
Even before 16 years ago!
Temperature increase could never be the primary effect of adding heat or insulation to the Earth system. A secondary as a transient between equilibriums, perhaps. Ice melting is, for example.

Propose a mechanism where it could be. The equipartition theorem fights you all the way.

Propose your own mechanism.

By the way, fans of the Alchemist must admit I predicted the publicity campaign that is this "Pause" quite a while ago. I didn't know what they would call it, but even Vendi the Hth, must admit (because he was a strident mocker) that I saw it coming.

By the way, MY own little theory still holds water.
Yes, I am smug.

That's right pleebs, vote me down; I've got my genius to keep me warm.
LOL
