not warming. Every extinction cited as being caused byGHGs can be shown to have other causes. I agree with Mizimi on this. Name an extinction where warming is blamed and I will give you a more viable explanation for that extinction that has nothing to do withGHGs. This is a violent and...
Ocean water absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which creates a chemical reaction that causes ocean acidification. The global average pH of ocean surface waters has decreased by 0.11 since the Industrial Revolution began — a 30% increase in acidity — according to NOAA's Pacific Marine En...
because it must vary to regulate the amount of energy energy going in and out, from multiple causes. The balance between such forces is at a scale impossibly large for humans
land-based glacial ice will continue to melt and the oceans will continue to expand even though Earth's atmosphere has begun to recover. Sea level will only return to today's position when it finally becomes cool enough for large, land-based ice sheets to build up again on Antarctica and ...

http://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/research/topics/climate-change/causes What is climate change? The Earth’s climate varies over times scales from months through to centuries and beyond. Factors that affect the climate over time-scales from hundreds to millions of years include: • energy output fro...
What causes surface currents on the ocean? How does mantle convection cause seafloor spreading? What is the difference between convection and orographic precipitation? What four currents make an ocean gyre? The convection cycles of the mantle are the main cause of the movement of what part of the...
This “beating” causes quasiperiodic trends in the insolation primarily due to the precession index (the precession modulated by the eccentricity). The eccentricity through the precession index has amplified and reduced the insolation in a quasiperiodic manner over the last 800,000 yea...
Now imagine that you are one of the prominent politicians – Obama, Kerry, Merkel, Ban Ki-moon, Hollande, Cameron, Davey, whoever – who have publicly and repeatedly stated that climate change is the greatest threat facing the world, that the world is in serious trouble if nothing is done...
