Geological and Man-Made Climate and Sea Level Changes

Quantitative conversion between this data and direct temperature changes is a complicated process subject to many systematic uncertainties, however it is estimated that each 1 part per thousand change in δ18O r ...

Title: Rushing to Judgment , By: Hollander, Jack M
... Earth's climate is constantly changing from natural causes that, for the most part, are not understood. How are we to distinguish the human contribution, which may be very small, from the natural contribution, which may be small or large? Put another way, is the additional carbon dioxide humans are ...
