Abstract

In this work, we show that a reduction in climate sensitivity due too extra evaporation is a better match to climate sensitivity than without evaporation. We also compare the measured increase in rainfall, with our estimate of climate sensitivity and rainfall increase, with the IPCC’s 2.45 W / m2 climate forcing. The 11 rainfall is a good match, but the expected temperature increase in the years since 1850, becomes only 0.68 Kelvin. We also estimate the increase in evaporation of seawater, due to changes in global average wind speed) and show that the decrease in average wind speed from 1960 to 2010, we estimate this leads to decreased evaporation and thus an increase of temperature of around 0.9 Kelvin.
