Fantastic posts sir.

I would also love to point out to the worshippers of AGW, who also claim they fully believe in evolution.

What makes you think this is not EVOLUTION HAPPENING

The claim that climate and the weather these days are at a extreme never before seen by humans, occurring so fast is also false.

Seems like you're just copy & pasting stuff yet again. Also a number of your links are flat-out broken.
You know that first link was published in 1994, right?

Further, I didn't say anything about volcanoes, whether MWP was global, or about extreme weather. You're just reusing links from ages ago - heck, the newest one looks to be 2009 and most are before 2003. I've seen them before. I'm sure most of us have. Spamming yet another thread with them ain't impressing anyone who seriously cares about this topic.

Go have a look at that broken link: The Little Ice Age and Medieval Warming in South Africa. You'll see some interesting figures on page 123 and 124. Remember also that that was more than 15 years ago, and last year was 0.5°C greater than the apparent end date of that 2000 article, which was 1996.

What makes you think that it is? Fail to see how the two are connected since evolution would be about how we adapt to it. And we don't really have the time for that, evolution is not fast.

Excuse me, but you and the rest of the AGWarmers are using a theory postulated by Svante Arrhenius in 1896... That CO2 causes massive warming... When observation says otherwise...



I presented evidence from different research articles that show the Medieval Warm Period was a global event, and was hotter than even the present... Just because those articles were published in the 90s, or 2000s does not deny the truth of the information contained therein such research papers...

You need to formulate a real intelligent and concise argument instead of trying to dismiss the evidence by just claiming they are old...

Ecological tree line history and palaeoclimate – review of megafossil evidence from the Swedish Scandes

Leif Kullman

Article first published online: 2 JAN 2013

DOI: 10.1111/bor.12003

© 2012 The Author. Boreas © 2012 The Boreas Collegium

The postglacial tree line and climate history in the Swedish Scandes have been inferred from megafossil tree remains. Investigated species are mountain birch (Betula pubescens ssp. czerepanovii), Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) and grey alder (Alnus incana). Betula and Pinus first appeared on early deglaciated nunataks during the Lateglacial. Their tree lines peaked between 9600 and 9000 cal. a BP, almost 600 m higher than present-day elevations. This implies (adjusted for land uplift) that early Holocene summer temperatures may have been 2.3°C above modern ones. Elevational tree line retreat characterized the Holocene tree line evolution. For short periods, excursions from this trend have occurred. Between c. 12 000 and 10 000 cal. a BP, a pine-dominated subalpine belt prevailed. A first major episode of descent occurred c. 8200 cal. a BP, possibly forced by cooling and an associated shift to a deeper and more persistent snow pack. Thereafter, the subalpine birch forest belt gradually evolved at the expense of the prior pine-dominated tree line ecotone. A second episode of pine descent took place c. 4800 cal. a BP. Historical tree line positions are viewed in relation to early 21st century equivalents, and indicate that tree line elevations attained during the past century and in association with modern climate warming are highly unusual, but not unique, phenomena from the perspective of the past 4800 years. Prior to that, the pine tree line (and summer temperatures) was consistently higher than present, as it was also during the Roman and Medieval periods, c. 1900 and 1000 cal. a BP, respectively.

Abstract:
Substantial effort has recently been put into the development of climate reconstructions from tree-ring stable carbon isotopes, though the interpretation of long-term trends retained in such timeseries remains challenging. Here we use detrended δ13C measurements in Pinus uncinata tree-rings, from the Spanish Pyrenees, to reconstruct decadal variations in summer temperature back to the 13thcentury.
The June-August temperature signal of this reconstruction is attributed using decadally as well as annually resolved, 20th century δ13C data. Results indicate that late 20th century warming has not been unique within the context of the past 750 years.
Our reconstruction contains greater am-plitude than previous reconstructions derived from traditional tree-ring density data, and describes particularly cool conditions during the late 19th century. Some of these differences, including early warm periods in the 14th and 17thcenturies, have been retained via δ13C timeseries detrending — a
novel approach in tree-ring stable isotope chronology development. The overall reduced variance in earlier studies
points to an underestimation of pre-instrumental summer temperature variability de-rived from traditional tree-ring parameters.

Keywords:Climate change, paleoclimatology, stable isotope geochemistry, tree-rings, Europe.

A 2000-Year SST History of the Northeastern Arabian Sea
Tweet Follow @co2science

Paper Reviewed
Munz, P.M., Siccha, M., Luckge, A., Boll, A., Kucera, M. and Schulz, H. 2015. Decadal-resolution record of winter monsoon intensity over the last two millennia from planktic foraminiferal assemblages in the northeastern Arabian Sea. The Holocene 25: 1756-1771.

Working with a pair of sediment cores obtained from the continental margin of the northeastern Arabian Sea just off the coast of Pakistan, Munz et al. (2015) identified the planktic foraminifera remains found at different depths within the cores, which allowed them to develop a continuous record of sea surface temperature (SST) there over the past 2000 years. And what did that record reveal?

The six scientists report that (1) prior to the year 100 CE (= 100 AD) -- which they say was contemporaneous with the end of the Roman Warm Period -- "winter temperatures were more than 1.5°C warmer than today," that (2) "from 100 to 450 CE, highly variable temperatures indicate a transition phase," that (3) "after 450 CE, winter temperatures are constantly lower," while (4) the "highest temperatures during this interval occurred around 950 CE concomitant with the Medieval Warm Period."

The significance of these observations lies primarily in the fact that they provide yet another demonstration of the existence of two multi-century periods of time -- the Medieval and Roman Warm Periods -- when the earth was significantly warmer than it is currently, and at times when the atmosphere's CO2 concentration was significantly less than what it is today.

Notice how you completely ignored my pointing you to one of YOUR articles. Go back and read it.

You just spam a lot of this crap in order to sway opinion. For example, compare your chart to this one from Phage:

originally posted by: Phage
Still a problem. What happened to the 1998 el nino event? It doesn't seem to have happened in the "real world" data shown in that graph.

This is from UAH. You list UAH on your chart. Notice 1998. Why is 1998 so tiny on your chart?

Again, actually read your references. Go scroll down and look at the figures. For fun, look at Fig. 5, where they show temperatures circa 2000 are roughly equivalent to around 1700, during the cooler depths of the Little Ice Age (~1300 to about 1850). If you pin your hopes on this, does that mean for you that the Little Ice Age was warmer?

CO2Science.org is garbage and frequently twists articles to their perspective in their summaries.

Even despite these attempts to paint the past as warmer, it still doesn't negate CO2 causing warming. Seriously, this ain't hard. Mars is 96% CO2 with the surface at 6 mbar. Mars' equilibrium temperature is 210K, and would be if CO2 caused no warming - because CO2 does cause warming, it's average surface temperature is around 215K.

Earth's equilibrium temperature is 255K, and that's what it would be if greenhouse gases didn't work like they do. The average temperature of Earth at the surface is actually 288K because of water vapor, CO2, and other greenhouse gases. Higher pressure on Earth means that CO2 has only somewhat less forcing on Earth as it does on Mars, despite the vast difference in ratio and absolute number of molecules.

Water vapor is the most influential greenhouse gas by the combination of absorption and sheer quantity, but it responds quite rapidly to changing conditions. Carbon dioxide is well-mixed and far more stable; this stability helps to regulate the abrupt shifts in water vapor.

Are you completely unaware that there is a super-El Niño this year, started in 2015, which is the main reason for the increased temperatures?

As to your comment about me "finding some interesting figures on page 123 and 124"... You will have to be more specific...

Phage should know really well that El Ninos are anomalies not caused by CO2... Hence they are no proof of any global warming, much less anthropogenic global warming... It is just proof of an anomaly not caused by CO2...

El Nino occurs when there is a decrease in the vertical mixing between the deep cold waters, and the surface warm waters in the Pacific Ocean inhibiting upwelling.

No?... Perhaps a paper by climate scientists like Hans von Storch, who in 2006 testified before Congress to claim:


...
"Based on the scientific evidence, I am convinced that we are facing anthropogenic climate change brought about by the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere."
...


cstpr.colorado.edu...

Yet in 2013 he was one of the authors of the following paper.


Can climate models explain the recent stagnation in global warming?

Hans von Storch(1), Armineh Barkhordarian(1), Klaus Hasselmann(2) and Eduardo Zorita(1)
(1) Institute for Coastal Research, Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht, Geesthacht, Germany(2) Max-Planck-Institute for Meteorology, Hamburg, Germany

In recent years, the increase in near-surface global annual mean temperatures has emerged as considerably smaller than many had expected. We investigate whether this can be explained by contemporary climate change scenarios. In contrast to earlier analyses for a ten-year period that indicated consistency between models and observations at the 5% confidence level, we find that the continued warming stagnation over fifteen years, from 1998 -2012, is no longer consistent with model projections even at the 2% confidence level. Of the possible causes of the inconsistency, the underestimation of internal natural climate variability on decadal time scales is a plausible candidate, but the influence of unaccounted external forcing factors or an overestimation of the model sensitivity to elevated greenhouse gas concentrations cannot be ruled out. The first cause would have little impact of the expectations of longer term anthropogenic climate change, but the second and particularly the third would.

There are approximately 200 surface Volcanoes erupting at any given time on planet earth. Remember the Icelandic Volcano that erupted a couple of years ago ? It put more carbon into the atmosphere in 4 days than man has been able to decrease in the last 5 years. according to

Rutherford Plimer; an Australian geologist, professor emeritus of earth sciences at the University of Melbourne, professor of mining geology at the University of Adelaide, and the director of multiple mineral exploration and mining companies. He has published 130 scientific papers, six books and edited the Encyclopaedia of Geology.
I should also mention that when the volcano Mt. Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991, it put forth more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than the entire human race had emitted in all its years on earth. Mt. Pinatubo was active for over one year - ... Unless China and the Earth agree to work together to decrease carbon emissions no matter how many bricks you put in your toilet bowl to decrease water usage during a flush or cut back to only two squares of toilet paper, or riding your human powered bicycle on the busy streets after you have sold your boat and SUV most of this stuff is touchy feely B.S. and will not matter one iota to the atmosphere of planet earth no matter who comes up with the latest tax scheme...

Oh and btw, (before some people try to use my short answer to what causes El Niño against my argument) yes, I know it starts with the westward-driven winds in the Pacific weakening or reversing, but it is still not caused by CO2, this anomaly is largely solar driven.

Uh? What does CO2 have to do with it? The chart is about TEMPERATURE. The spike in UAH temperature at the same altitude is MISSING from your chart, despite being clearly visible on data from UAH. Explain.

Note the red line (reconstructed temperature) below the black line (measured temperature) at 2000.

1998 had an even stronger El Niño, but people frequently include 1998 in their range of temperatures as proof of the 'pause' in global warming. See any cognitive dissonance there?

I do? Look at the charts across the globe. Look at the differences between those charts. Remember, your point was that the LIA happened globally, something I wasn't arguing for or against.

Where is the enormous CO2 signal in 1991 from Pinatubo, then?
