Water Vapor Largely Responsible for Global Warming..."What I will say, is that this shows there are climate scientists round the world who are trying very hard to understand and to explain to people openly and honestly what has happened over the last decade." ...The research, facilitated by a state-of-the-art NASA satellite codenamed AIRS, suggests that water vapor is responsible for twice the global warming effect of carbon dioxide, both man-made and naturally occurring. While this theory was has been carried by climate change skeptics for some time, global warming advocates dismissed them, saying that water vapor in the atmosphere was only a feedback effect caused by human emissions. NASA scientist Eric Fetzer say that the new study created models much more accurate to past events than those previously used by climate change advocates, and proves that "water vapor is the big player in the atmosphere as far as climate is concerned." [^] It looks like the issue of water vapour, always discounted by the GCMs, is being explored more completely. Lets hope with the current fiasco taking pace at the IPCC, and CRU that we might see some more mature science, and prognostications, in the future.

Pay close attention to the bit in bold...
http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/vapor_warming.html[^]
Andrew Dessler and colleagues from Texas A&M University in College Station confirmed that the heat-amplifying effect of water vapor is potent enough to double the climate warming caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
...and again, the bit in bold. The second article, used as a source by the first, implies that water vapor acts as an amplifier on warming caused by CO2, not a separate and doubly-effective factor in warming. A small change in wording, but a rather large difference in meaning! Nate Kharrl needs to go back to grade school.

No, no, no, no. You are supposed to read the text like a 100% dyslectic, claim that you have read it all and understood it all. Then you google for information that supports your claim, no matter what the source is, and exlaim QED. It'll take you a while though, because remember, you are 100% dyslectic. When people dismiss you as being a real spamming pain in the ass, you will start whining about it, just like 5 year olds do. You will then come to the conclusion that you are the martyr victim, and everybody else is actively out to get you. What were you thinking?

What concerns me, is that someone like fat boy would post a link like this, then the next day post a link to say the earth is cooling, not warming. In other words, is there a single scientific approach, or is there a scattershot approach to believe anything that rejects the current status quo ?

Heh, don't be silly. I'm sure "nick" joined the site last Friday for the scintillating discussions that frequently pop up here... and just hasn't quite had time to participate in any of them yet... :rolleyes:
It sure is nice to see you, Chris, etc, back here. It's like the good old days. Perhaps all we need to do is annoy CSS once a week, so he goes off and sulks, and we could have REAL conversations back here.

Now Christian, a few questions. What are the requirements to join SoapBox 1? Who do applications to join SoapBox 1 go to for approval. If you knight the OP and use a full first name, then check Google, you will find certain interesting stuff. I know not the identity of the OP but there could be a bit of misinformation going on :rolleyes:

You mean this forum ? There are none, people just post. I am a mod because everyone else backed out. That IS interesting. I always thought it was a troll tho, if it's fat boy or not. The [moved] makes me think this was posted in the lounge and moved here.

No this is the Backroom. I mean the new Soapbox 1 [^]. If my post above was too cryptic I'll give a link later ... And yes it was in the lounge originally
OK - you have to ask Oakman to let you in. He typically lets anyone in bar CSS and Ilion. It's only then that he acts like an ass to them.

OK, well, for a moment, it seemed like a lot of the old guard was suddenly back here, I guess that explained it.

[Speculation on my part ... ] I said [quote] If you knight the OP and use a full first name, then check Google, you will find certain interesting stuff. [/quote] I forgot to say he is a Professor and recently made a life peer. Rules to join soapbox 1 (rule 1 : You must have been an active member of Code Project for at least six months. That means that you have posted regularly or had at least one article published.) OP is Nick Stern. Knight him makes him a Sir Full first name gives Nicholas Full name is Sir Nicholas Stern (now promoted to the Lords) and he is "Head of the UK Government Economic Service and Adviser to the Government on the economics of climate change and development". The OP's subject was Global Warming. The OP account has only existed a few days. I'm not suggesting it is fat_boy but ????

Yeah, I got all that. I followed your instructions and found the name. Membership in the soapbox 1.0 means not being a troll by OAKMAN's definition. So, Oakman or fat boy trolling, does not count.

I never publiched an atricle and Oakman positively asked me to join his forum. Basically, its the old soapbox without CSS and Illion. I dont know why Illion, he had been around a long time and hadnt caused that much offence. CSS was, as you know, a diferent matter. He is probably deranged and mentally unstable. Aggressive and a drug user. Although he was also clever, he spoofed me once using an Arabic text reversal tag very effectively. It was him who destroyed the SB really.
