Home Climate Analysis: Hockey Stick Defenders
http://homeclimateanalysis.blogspot.com/2010/07/hockey-stick-defenders.html
Investigation of climate and weather by an engineer. See our Summary to Date. Page for the story so far. Wednesday, July 28, 2010. I had a look through this defense. Of the Hockey Stick over at Realclimate. The author is Tamino. Here he writes at length defending Michael Mann's hockey stick graph against Steve McIntyre. Steve McIntyre has his own answer. To Tamino's post. He concentrates upon how Tamino mis-quotes him. And I first posted about the effect here. Nowhere in Tamino's discussion do I see any ...

Home Climate Analysis: Extended Atmospheric Absorption Spectra
http://homeclimateanalysis.blogspot.com/2010/09/extended-atmospheric-absorption-spectra.html
Investigation of climate and weather by an engineer. See our Summary to Date. Page for the story so far. Wednesday, September 29, 2010. Extended Atmospheric Absorption Spectra. In our previous post. We concluded that we needed to extend our existing absorption spectra. To cover the range 5 μm to 60 μm. So we returned to the Spectral Calculator. And, entered our gas properties. In the EA 1 folder. You will find the condensed spectra here. We apply our total escaping power program. 15-km 220.0 132....Let's...

Home Climate Analysis: Clouds Without Rain
http://homeclimateanalysis.blogspot.com/2011/10/clouds-without-rain.html
Investigation of climate and weather by an engineer. See our Summary to Date. Page for the story so far. Tuesday, October 4, 2011. Today we present Circulating Cells. Version 9 ( CC9. And we use it to find out what would happen if we had clouds without rain. The simulation implements the following features of clouds. 1) Evaporation from surface water, as in Evaporation Rate. 2) Condensation in rising air, as in Condensation Point. 3) Cooling and warming by latent heat of evaporation, as in Latent Heat.

Home Climate Analysis: Anthropogenic Global Warming
http://homeclimateanalysis.blogspot.com/2012/03/anthropogenic-global-warming.html
Investigation of climate and weather by an engineer. See our Summary to Date. Page for the story so far. Thursday, March 15, 2012. The Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) hypothesis states. That doubling the CO2 concentration of the Earth's atmosphere will raise the average surface temperature of the Earth by a minimum of 1.5°C, and more likely 3°C. Of the absorption and emission of long-wave radiation by the Earth's atmosphere, we calculated. The AGW hypothesis states that in the event of the Earth warmi...

Home Climate Analysis: Radiating Clouds
http://homeclimateanalysis.blogspot.com/2012/01/radiating-clouds.html
Investigation of climate and weather by an engineer. See our Summary to Date. Page for the story so far. Wednesday, January 18, 2012. The latest version of Circulating Cells. Implements the upwelling and downwelling radiation calculations we described in Up and Down Radiation. To run the program, download CC11. And follow the instructions at the top of the code. Clouds absorb and emit long-wave. Radiation as if they were black bodies. We now set the transparency fraction. Which you will find in SR 1200hr.

Home Climate Analysis: With 660 ppm CO2
http://homeclimateanalysis.blogspot.com/2010/10/with-660-ppm-co2.html
Investigation of climate and weather by an engineer. See our Summary to Date. Page for the story so far. Wednesday, October 6, 2010. With 660 ppm CO2. In our In our previous post. We extended our atmospheric absorption spectra. To cover wavelengths 5 μm to 60 μm. These spectra assume CO2 concentration 330 ppm, which is typical for the Earth today, and temperature and water vapor concentration typical for. A 30°N on a clear spring day. We plotted. Is 296.0 W. With the help of the Spectral Calculator.

Home Climate Analysis: Summary to Date
http://homeclimateanalysis.blogspot.com/p/status-report.html
Investigation of climate and weather by an engineer. See our Summary to Date. Page for the story so far. These days, we are studying the carbon dioxide cycle of the Earth's atmosphere, with particular attention to the concentration of the radioactive isotope of carbon that we call carbon-14. But this this blog began with posts like Reliability of Surface Temperature. In which we discussed source of error in the measurement of global surface temperature. In Absorption, Not Reflection. Radiation from the E...

Home Climate Analysis: The Greenhouse Effect
http://homeclimateanalysis.blogspot.com/2010/01/refutation-of-greenhouse-effect.html
Investigation of climate and weather by an engineer. See our Summary to Date. Page for the story so far. Tuesday, January 19, 2010. When we wrote the first draft of this post, every explanation for the greenhouse effect that we had found on the web contradicted either the second law of thermodynamics. Or the laws of black body radiation. Or our own laboratory experiments. At first we thought these contradictions meant that the greenhouse effect did not exist, and we were not alone. Suppose the atmosphere...

Home Climate Analysis: Simulated Rain
http://homeclimateanalysis.blogspot.com/2011/12/simulated-rain.html
Investigation of climate and weather by an engineer. See our Summary to Date. Page for the story so far. Friday, December 23, 2011. The latest version of our Circulating Cells. Program implements the simplified evaporation cycle we presented in our previous post. Freezing clouds turn into snowflakes and drift downwards. When the snowflakes pass through warm air, they melt and become raindrops. To run the program, download CC10. And follow the instructions at the top of the code. The temperature at which ...
