Re: Ocean acidifcation .

And if you don't like Spencer then how about Nature?

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

You apparently didn't read Spencer's post about it, or do you disagree on his statement?

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

Specifically on this thread we have had the following arguments which Spencer and others would say are giving the skeptics a bad name because they ignore basic physics.

1. My favorite.. co2 can't...

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

You are and I’ll comment on Dr Spencer’s comments on that part of it on a later post.

I will point out there have been lots of posts about the underlying science of CO2 climatic effects and there...

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

Lately there have been tons of posts about Roy Spencer . Exile frequently uses him as an example of a skeptic. Which prompted me to go read more from his website.

First I found a couple of...

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

Fortunately the amount of warming so far is 1C not 1.8C. remember 5C cooling had most of north America covered in ice.

When thinking about global temperature, remember that most of the earth is...

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

Okay.. I guess that sums up your understanding of the basic physics [emoji50] surprising given much time you argue on this topic.

There is very good agreement in the *science* world about the history of CO2 over the last 800k years. There is good agreement that the co2 has increased from 280 to 440 and is headed...

Really??? After all the threads on this, you are unsure? CO2 levels have been directly measured since the 50s when scientists started getting really worried about this. They have been reconstructed...

The source of that graph is from a skeptic website from 2001. That original website doesn’t even seem to have the graph posted any more. Please see if you can find a similar graph in a scientific...

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

I think this is a very good question. We know that 5C colder resulted in an ice age with most of Northern America covered in glaciers. I don’t think there much to rely on in last million years on...

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

You said that only .04% of additional CO2 was from human sources. Please either retract that statement (post 1378) or specify where the source of CO2 come from.

I gave you a graph. No other...

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

I was asking *you* where all the additional co2 is coming from. You tried to say that 99.94% of the recent increase in CO2 was from not fossil fuels. Please specify the source of the increase in CO2....

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

So for this large spike in CO2 in the last 100 years what natural source are you suggesting 99.96% of that came from?
Remember it is just math to take the amount of fossil fuels burned and calculate...

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

Of course the quoted percentage is wrong by an order of magnitude and is totally irrelevant as well. When people quote the percentage of CO2 in the atmosphere trying to make the point it can’t matter...

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

Not actually sure if you read the article given your response. Where *specifically* in the article did you think the author failed to take into account the spherical nature of the earth?

Hottest month ever on record and record low extent of ice. Where is the ice age that newhaul predicts ? [emoji3]

Re: Ocean acidifcation .

True but the concentration of methane is about 500 times less than CO2, so it is a much more significant issue in the form of methane than the CO2 it produces when it decomposes.
