Talk:Climate commitment

(William M. Connolley 23:41, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)) I've substantially revised SEW's text. I'm not at all sure that "these models don't include small ice caps" is right: the IPCC projections certainly do, and since ~2.5 oC -> 0.5 m/c, 0.5 oC -> 0.1 m/c would be consistent with the small ice caps being included.

Umm.. that was your text. [1] (SEWilco 09:34, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC))

(William M. Connolley 09:53, 22 Mar 2005 (UTC)) Oops! I pasted that in from Nature without reading it carefully, then forgot. Well, I suppose it must be true then.

Why "At the time of the TAR there were not yet studies of the levels of unrealized climate commitment that might remain in the current climate"?

(William M. Connolley 11:45, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)) I don't understand why you (Silverback) insist on putting this in. There is a perfectly good link right there to a GRL pub at the time of the TAR considering just this point. What you have added is wrong, as demonstrated by that link (have you looked at the publication?). The only reason I can see for you putting this is is because you want this to be a new idea, and the only reason I can see for you wanting this is some kind of anti-IPCC bias.
