What happens when the prevailing pattern of jetstream winds in one of the hemispheres reveals signs of weakened strength and poor positioning? Today the weather maps have images that give us the answer. We can even compare one hemisphere where … Continue reading →

A year ago at this time I was showing images from the weather maps in order to illustrate various points being made while developing what today is called Carl’s theory. I now realize how valuable the images are when reconsidered … Continue reading →

Carl’s theory makes certain claims about the greenhouse energy effect of precipitable water (PW.) One primary claim is that, with all other conditions being equal, and subject to specific limitations, any doubling of the weight of PW’s atmospheric content will … Continue reading →

Some thoughts about the albedo effect of cloud cover. This is a followup from my letter of two days ago, which covered a review of an interesting new study. Let’s hope this new information is for real. Meanwhile, I have … Continue reading →

A rare kind of day for global temperature anomalies. You’ll need to pay special attention to the numbers at the bottom of this map: First rare note: The entire globe is 0.1C below the baseline average for the day, which … Continue reading →

Carl’s theory, part 1, as it stands, seeks to inform us that the condensation of water vapor into clouds, an action that gives rise to the concept of precipitable water (PW), has no significant effect on the strength of the … Continue reading →

Carl’s theory of precipitable water’s (PW’s) greenhouse effect generally relates to the strength of that effect.  The theory got started based on the idea that, in spite of big differences in its principal components, PW can be treated holistically, in … Continue reading →

Part 2 of Carl’s theory provides what I believe to be an unprecedented view of the natural processes that set up the interactive relationship between streams of precipitable water (PW) concentrations and jetstream wind activity in the upper levels of … Continue reading →

The central claim of Carl’s theory, part 1, is that the greenhouse energy output of precipitable water (PW) is almost completely determined by the total molecular weight of all the PW that exists in a column of air extending to … Continue reading →

Any new theory, of any kind, represents a challenge to current ways of understanding things and to any organized teachings that are tied to those understandings. Carl’s theory challenges the teachings of climate science on three separate fronts, all of … Continue reading →
