UAH Global Temperature Update for March, 2022: +0.15 deg. C

April 2nd, 2022 by Roy W. Spencer, Ph. D.

The Version 6.0 global average lower tropospheric temperature (LT) anomaly for March, 2022 was +0.15 deg. C, up from the February, 2022 value of -0.01 deg. C.

The linear warming trend since January, 1979 still stands at +0.13 C/decade (+0.12 C/decade over the global-averaged oceans, and +0.18 C/decade over global-averaged land).

Various regional LT departures from the 30-year (1991-2020) average for the last 15 months are:

    clint…”He [Tim Folkerts] has stated that the flux from an ice cube will add to the same flux to heat a surface to 325K”.

    ***

    It’s obvious that Tim, and his accomplice ,Barry, in the thread from earlier, do not understand the 2nd law, or even the meaning of flux.

    If fluxes from separate radiative sources strike a surface, the flux density will increase at the surface. The fluxes don’t add at the surface, there are simply more flux lines per unit area.

    If part of the fluxes are from a source hotter than the surface and the other part from a source cooler than the surface, like ice, only the fluxes from the hotter body will be absorbed. The rest will be completely ignored.

    The meaning is clear. Energy from the Sun at an average of about 5500C will always be absorbed by the Earth’s surface but energy from the atmosphere that is in thermal equilibrium or cooler, can never be absorbed by the surface.

    Barry raised the issue of a second Sun being introduced, using a red-herring argument, comparing the radiation from a second Sun to a block of ice being added to the equation.

    Barry’s red-herring is similar to the red-herring issued by Eli Rabbett (Josh Halpern) against the point made by Gerlich & Tscheuschner that heat can only be transferred cold to hot, by its own means. Eli et al, with the aforementioned Arthur Smith in the ‘al’ peanut gallery, argued that would mean, with two bodies of different temperatures radiating close to each other, one of the bodies would not be radiating.

    This egregious misunderstanding of the 2nd law has to stop. Clausius stated it in such a manner that even a child could understand it. Heat can never be transferred, by its own means, from a colder body to a hotter body. Later, he declared that applies equally to radiation.

    He should not have had to point that out. No energy…anywhere…can be transferred from a region of lower potential energy to a region of higher potential energy by its own means. That is a serious no-brainer.
