Fourth IPCC Climate Report, or: any improvement since founding of the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change its establishment by WMO
& UNEP in 1988?

February 2007
Dear Website-Visitor,
Global
warming is one of the hottest topics nowadays. The forthcoming
Climate-Change report is nearly certain to conclude that there is at
least a 90 percent chance that human-caused emissions are the main
cause of warming since 1950, which will continue with higher
temperatures of 2 to 4 degrees Celsius until the end of this century.
Can 500 leading scientists be mistaken after submitting the fourth
report in two decades?
While
it is not difficulty to see that after a global cooling from war
winter 1939/40 until the 1970th the average temperatures
have increased significantly, the reliability of the two other
essertainments should be greeted with cautious. IPCC still does not
acknowledge, that the oceans and seas are the absolute driving force
of the climate system (FN 1). The naval war thesis is presented and
discussed by this website to support this claim as indicated in the
graph.
The
immediate reaction of the oceans to naval war forcing should be not
coming so much as surprise. A thin sea surface-layer of just three
metres holds as much heat as the air column of 10’000 metres above
the sea. Cooling this three metres layer by 1ºC, are enough to
increase the atmosphere over its total heights correspondingly by
1ºC. And the heat capacity of the atmosphere is to an overwhelming
degree dependent on the ‘ocean water’ in the air. Not talking in
the first place of the oceans and seas when looking for climate
changes, is not very convincing. The naval war thesis with huge and
decisive ‘field experiments’ during WWI and WWII could make IPCC
rethink its too narrow approach over the last 20 years.
Any
questions? Please feel free to evaluate to material here presented.
With
best regards
