“Suppressed” Carlin report based on Pat Michaels attack on EPA A couple of days ago, I posted about economist Alan Carlin’s “suppressed” report on the EPA’s proposed greenhouse gas endangerment finding. Not only was the report a pastiche of warmed over contrarian talking points attacking the...

Underpowered? In what way? I don't think it's counter intuitive. The solar forcing varies between highs and lows by less than the forcing estimated for landuse changes and increasing greenhouse concentrations.

When mother nature makes the ice sheets grow and shrink, it is predominantly in response to orbital changes. These produce that familiar 800-1200 year gap between peak temperatures and peak greenhouse gas concentrations. That is not happening now. The withdrawal is happening ahead of schedule...

Except for the records that they have...

Depends on the database...The satellite records aren't old enough to even have a long term average really. Barely even a baseline period.

Of course. If we didn't include changes in solar forcing, then we wouldn't have seasons. There is a solar lull right now and yet the temperature and it's secondary responses remains above the long term average. Funny huh?

Those aren't models, it's a time series.

Ice extent, downward trend. Ice thickness down. It probably won't be this summer, but I'd bet money that the Arctic will be ice free in the summer before 2020. Just look at the trends in ice age:
