CO2 was not cause of Global Warming between 1979-1993

I’ve been examining how global planetary temperature can be predicted from various things like pressure and tropospheric height. The reason for this is that planets appear to have their tropopause at a constant 0.1bar pressure. And like a thermometer as … Continue reading

Addendum to proof disproved?

In my last article Proof” disproved and then further proof re Global temperature I mentioned that the ISO standard pressure model for atmosphere had not changed. This is because according to a simple readjustment of the relationship of pressure with … Continue reading

"Proof" disproved and then further proof re Global temperature

Yesterday I proved that global temperature is controlled by the equation: T0  = L.htrop/{1- (Ptrop/p0)^(R0.L/g.M)} Where p = pressure at height h (pa) .. or … Ptrop = pressure at troposphere (assumed to be 0.1bar) p0 = pressure at surface … Continue reading

Predicting Planetary Temperature (without referring to radiation)

We are constantly being told that the Greenhouse effect is due to a radiative process. I want to show simply that it is not. Instead as per Ned Nikolov & Karl Zeller I want to show that from first principles it … Continue reading

Predicting the surface temperature on other planets

After trying & failing to reproduce the results in the paper “New Insights on the Physical Nature of the Atmospheric Greenhouse Effect Deduced from an Empirical Planetary Temperature Model” by Ned Nikolov & Karl Zeller in which they argue that … Continue reading
