Impact of changes in diffuse radiation on the global land carbon sink

Geoengineering might give us the next Ice Age.

"That scattering also, however, boosts how much carbon vegetation takes in, says Lina M. Mercado, an ecosystem modeler at the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology in Wallingford, England. Although aerosols, including many types of air pollution, decrease the overall amount of light falling onto a tree, the particles diffuse the radiation that reaches the ground so that it actually illuminates more leaves. In that case, leaves below the tree’s outer canopy are less likely to be shaded." Bring back the open air coal boilers, that will help cool the enviroment. Clean Air was the cause of Global Warming!

“It takes a long time for such effects to make their way into climate models,” agrees Michael Roderick, an environmental physicist

Another example of the never-ending need for tweaking of the woefully inadequate climate models.

 

Beam me to Planet Gore !

This is just some liberal genius’s set of suppositions. I won’t believe anything good or bad that is attributed to man’s ability to polute or clean-up.
It is what it is and mother nature’s models are too complex for climatologists.

The trend hints that relying on forests and other vegetation to sequester carbon may not be effective if skies continue to clear, researchers say.

Heh... heads they win, tails we lose. Thanks neverdem.
