4 <br /> Dr. Curry's entire commentary on the aftermath of CLIMATEGATE is posted at the end <br /> of my testimony. <br /> 3. What global climate models can and can't do well: <br /> Global climate models create a coarse grained simulation of earth's climate system <br /> using computers. These models simulate atmosphere, ocean, land surface, sea ice, and <br /> glaciers. Models use complex mathematical equations that can only be approximately <br /> solved on computers. <br /> Some of the equations and climate models are based on laws of physics.. However, there <br /> are key processes in climate models that are approximated and not based on physical <br /> laws. Hence, there are a LOT of"tunable parameters" in these climate models, <br /> including solar direct effects and CLOUDS. Climate models can't tell us anything <br /> about climate sensitivity to CO21, but recent studies may be shedding more light on <br /> CO2 saturation dynamics — <br /> Two recently-published papers found that doubling CO2 in the atmosphere led to minimal <br /> temperature increases. The calculated figures can be considered to be in margin of error territory and <br /> on past observational evidence they pose no threat to the climate on Earth. They also destroy the shaky <br /> scientific foundation upon which Net Zero rests. <br /> Eight Taiwanese scientists led by Professor Peng-Sheng Wei found that the sensitivity of the <br /> climate to a rise in CO2 atmospheric levels from 100 to 400 parts per million(ppm)was "negligibly <br /> small" at 0.3°C. The paper is complex and examines heat transfers as a function of longitude, <br /> latitude and altitude "as well as diffuse radiation determined by absorption bands based on <br /> wavelength,temperature and the concentration or pressure of carbon dioxide vapour." <br /> The rest of the article above is posted at the end of this testimony. <br /> And there is still a factor of 3 uncertainty in these models, as per Dr. Curry. <br /> In addition, the effect of our solar system transiting through a highly magnetized <br /> interstellar cloud(which appears to be a factor in changes observed on ALL the <br /> planets, as per extensive David Wilcock references on Gaiam to scientific articles)is <br /> not included in these models - <br /> https://web.archive.org/web/20230604143301/https://science.nasa.gov/science- <br /> news/science-at-nasa/2009/23dec_voyager <br /> Global models are exceedingly complex .. and are amazing tools for trying to understand <br /> how global climate works, but are NOT fit for making future predictions, simulating <br /> regional climates or extreme weather or climate events. <br /> 8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHhV_RY ac <br /> https://mindandmatter.substack.coli p/udith-curry-climatology-climate <br /> https://www.nickiikomes.com post/Judith-curry-climatology-climate-change-computer-modelinggreen- <br /> energy-greenhouse-gasses-84-1 <br />
