Scientists: Climate Forcing Measurement Errors Are ‘Only’ 150 Times Larger Than For CO2 Climate Forcing

When assessing the climate-altering effects of downwelling longwave radiation, the root mean square error associated with calculating this value is 29.7 W/m². For some reason, scientists characterize measurements with an observation error this large as “high accuracy”. In an imaginary world where no clouds exist (clear-sky), the surface longwave downward radiation (LWDR) calculated for a […]
