Rock star-scientist Brian Cox confused on more than global temperatures : Comments

By Jennifer Marohasy, published 18/8/2016

Richard Horton, the current editor of the medical journal, The Lancet, recently stated that, 'The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue.'

JF AUS,
“If more algae = less heat in your CO2 belief then why is sea ice melting faster and more than normal in the algae inundated Bering Sea?”

Because of climate change! (Slaps hand to forehead).

Bering Sea is NOT overloaded with nutrients into what the scientists call an Oceanic Dead Zone.
LOOK AT THE MAP OF DEAD ZONES!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_zone_(ecology)

Instead, it has HIGH algae stimulating the base of the food chain. Not DEADLY. Just HIGH. Get it? A ‘Goldilocks’ level of nutrient and algae. It’s just BRIMMING WITH LIFE!

“On the U.S. side, commercial fisheries catch approximately $1 billion worth of seafood annually, while Russian Bering Sea fisheries are worth approximately $600 million annually.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bering_Sea#Biodiversity

THIS DIRECTLY CONTRADICTS YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND ASSERTIONS OF THE ALGAE IN THE BERING SEA!

Now, I’ve danced around your algae assertions enough. It’s time for you to watch 2 very short videos. Myth busters, and another one. We’re talking basic physics. BASIC! It’s about all I can understand of physics, myself, so I like to keep it that way.

Watch the candle at 90 seconds in! The candle heat demonstration only goes for a minute.
(The rest of the video is great, and demonstrates the accuracy of today's climate models).

Max Green,

Calm down Max.
I did not say anything about a dead zone in the Bering Sea.
I said inundated, as can be seen in satellite images compared to other areas of ocean with no visible density of algae.

Value of a fish catch these days is inflated due to fish depletion causing higher prices.

Vitus Bering reported a great river of fur following his discovery of the Bering Sra so think how many fish used to be there to feed so many seals and other animals.

NASA sat images show micro algae that cannot be denied.
There is no world renowned big fishery in the Bering Sea.
Salmon stocks in the region are known to be devastated generally.
Seals are killed as fisherman and animals now struggle in competition for food.
Mutton birds arrive emaciated and drop dead in Australia after migration from Bering Sea waters.
U.S. fishermen are having to travel to western Pacific waters in their struggle to find fish.

Can anyone show evidence there are no electrochemical heat properties in ocean algae and no precipitation linked to algae causing change in weather and climate

Max Green, you're being Trolled mate. :-)

Which is fine because it only shows up the insincere troll as being the manipulator not you. Still there is the waste of time aspect. Though you are doing a great job of sharing some excellent info. I don't think he or she (could be JM in disguise?) has looked at a single ref, and if they did they sure wouldn't comprehend it's meaning. LOL

JF Aus

Oceans and seas generally have been warmer than usual, South Eastern USA is being hit by the extra warmth in the Mexican Gulf at present.

Warmth plus nutrients are conducive to creating algal blooms.

I notice you did not comment on radiative forcing in the atmosphere.

Go on believing that algae creates warmth; JF Aus, I certainly don't accept it.

Until you can show that radiative infrared forcing has no impact on climate, I will no longer respond to your comments.

YES!

Can you show substantiated evidence accepted by a consensus of working scientists in this field there are electrochemical heat properties in ocean algae and precipitation linked to algae CAUSING change in weather and climate?

NO!

Next silly question insert here:_______________

JF Aus,
You have not responded substantively to these facts yet, so I'll repeat them.

“Since 1993, thirteen international research teams have COMPLETED ocean trials demonstrating that phytoplankton blooms can be stimulated by iron addition.”
http://ebme.marine.rutgers.edu/HistoryEarthSystems/HistEarthSystems_Fall2008/Week8b/Boyd_et_al_Science_2007.pdf

Not enough? Mt Pinatubo spewed “40,000 tons of iron dust into the oceans worldwide. This single fertilization event generated an easily observed global decline in atmospheric CO2 and a parallel pulsed increase in oxygen levels.”
goo.gl/RLY6Ij

“The maximum possible result from iron fertilization, assuming the most favourable conditions and disregarding practical considerations, is 0.29W/m2 of globally averaged negative forcing,[33] which is almost sufficient to reverse the warming effect of about 1/6 of current levels of anthropogenic CO2 emissions.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_fertilization#Science

Why are the ice caps melting?

How much extra energy does this add?

Have a nice day.
