No reliable studies of climate change without Henry's Law and a new thermometer for the global temperature

TL;DR

This paper presents a new theory linking Henry's Law to atmospheric CO2 levels and temperature, proposing a novel, real-time global temperature measurement method based on atmospheric gas concentrations.

Contribution

The paper introduces a theory connecting Henry's Law with CO2 concentration and temperature, and proposes a new, more accurate global thermometer using atmospheric gases.

Findings

Major CO2 increase is driven by temperature changes, not human activity.

Response time of atmospheric CO2 is approximately 7.4 years.

A new thermometer based on atmospheric gases can estimate global temperature in real time.

Abstract

In our previous paper "No experimental evidence for the significant anthropogenic climate change" we had a reference to this paper. Thus, we have presented a new theory: how Henry's Law regulates the concentration of CO$_2$ in the atmosphere. This theory uses a physically perfect unit impulse response to convolve signals. By comparing the theory and the present observations we are able to derive the response time about 7.4 years, which is roughly the residence time of CO$_2$ in the atmosphere. In addition, according to Henry's Law we can derive the temperature dependence of the equilibrium concentration of CO$_2$. It turns out that now the major increase of CO$_2$ in the atmosphere is due to the temperature change, the reason for which is approximately a change of cloudiness ($90\%$) and the rest ($10\%$) the greenhouse effect. The corresponding increase of CO$_2$ is $83$~ppm/$^\circ$C. According to our theory, the causality is very clear: the increase of the temperature results in more CO$_2$ in the atmosphere. This further CO$_2$ concentration increases also the temperature but less than $10\%$ via the greenhouse effect. The human contribution to the CO$_2$ concentration and the temperature is very small. About $90\%$ of a big human release of CO$_2$ dissolves in water. That is why the human release now warms the climate less than $0.03 ^\circ$C. We can also perform an inverse operation or calculate the temperature profile from the observed CO$_2$ curve. So we propose a new thermometer for the global surface temperature. This can be used almost in real time and it is more accurate than the present methods. It turns out that probably also N$_2$O and SF$_6$ concentrations in the atmosphere operate as global thermometers.
