How Low Can CS Be?
Slide 20 in this series.
If aaply what we have learned about the amount of CO2 that is in the atmosphere that is human generated, and ask the question how low could the climate sensitivity CS be in reality?
The analysis outlined below provides an estimate that says CS could be as low as 0.05C which is essentially zero. This comes from the reduced IRGE and the reduced delta RF equation.
As one adds in a lower delta RF equation (not assuming strong saturation) along with the reduced ACO2 impact, it is easy to see that the CS values of 1C for CO2 alone could be a lot less in reality.
NEXT: If we move to the carbon cycle we can see how the claims of low ACO2 are probable.
