Guest Post by Willis Eschenbach (@WEschenbach on X, my personal blog is here.) Well, I had some further insights and questions about the issue of sunshine hours that I discussed…

There was a recent weeks-long exchange of emails between many climate people — professional and amateur — regarding the idea that air pressure (in combination with absorbed solar energy) is what causes temperature.

Natural atmospheric circulation patterns (like the Western Tibetan Vortex, or WTV) drive total cloud cover (TCC) change, which, in turn modulate the the amount of downward solar radiation reaching the surface.

With regard to EEI, the answer to the question “What Is The Proof?” is that there is no proof.

            This expansion of the CRGW theory is intended to be a possible tool in the investigation of historical climate change to explore what did cloud fraction do as the earth changed over time and what future...

A 4 W/m² per decade increase in SSR easily explains recent warming. It especially explains warming far better than the alleged 20-times smaller clear-sky-only CO2 impact (0.2 W/m² per decade) over this span.

Accumulation of ice at altitude in high latitudes is an early indicator for the eventual ice accumulation down slope and at lower latitudes.  Greenland’s largest and most productive glacier, Jacobshavn, has advanced and...

By Andy May It all began eight years ago when I read and reviewed Ronan and Michael Connolly’s first three papers on their ideas about the “molar density intersection” which…

Slicing the earth’s data has revealed expected correlation of sun angle to cloud fraction, VPD, and Enthalpy and interesting correlation to land fraction.  The land fraction seems to be related to a change in the ET of...

Advection not only moves heat over the Earth’s surface to where it can travel more easily from surface to space, but the very dry air in the counterflow of cA and cP masses that polar regions produce open the atmospheric...

The misdirected demonising of CO₂ has resulted in climate models that are blind to seasonal changes in solar intensity across the hemispheres and naively embody parameterisation of ice forming and ice loss processes that...

Greenhouse warming in the lower atmosphere is balanced by CO2 cooling in the stratosphere. This explains why CO2 concentrations do not correlate with earth's temperatures over millions of years!

This mathematical exercise was done to see how close calculated irradiance would come to measured irradiance and to prove that climate models using enthalpy instead of radiation or irradiation were valid.  (The CRGW (3)...

The study authors decided to see whether Earth’s magnetic field and atmosphere have fluctuated in ways that demonstrate a link.
