Scientist: There is no observational evidence for influence of CO2 on present or past climate
THE HOCKEY SCHTICK
Sept 16, 2010
Dr. Ir. Noor van Andel, former head of research at Akzo Nobel, recently presented a talk at the Dutch Meteorological Institute KNMI, concluding there is
* No observational evidence for influence of CO2 on past or present climate
* Rising Outgoing Long-wave radiation with more than 3.7 W/m^2 per oC SST cannot be the effect of rising CO2 or of the increase of other “greenhouse” gases. Rising OLR/SST with 8.6 W/m^2K means that the atmosphere has become more transparent to IR radiation in the past 60 years. The “greenhouse effect” has become less.

-
* Solar constant and the properties of water determine our climate
* Rising surface temperature is tightly controlled by increasing wet convection and concomitant upper tropospheric drying
* Strong observational correlation of solar magnetic activity with climate temperatures, presumably via cloud condensation nucleation and albedo [the cosmic ray theory of Svensmark et al]
