“It will be up to the scientists to fight it out over what has played a more significant role in recent temperature rises – aerosols or El Niño – with some backing for third place Hunga Tonga. “
Weak the Fauxcy-like Climate Science is.
I would certainly be suspect of NASA’s motive in publishing these findings.
“...findings from a team of high-powered NASA scientists that suggest most of the recent global temperature increases are due to the introduction of draconian fuel shipping regulations...”
IF there is any, that’s not the cause.
which has nothing to do with government global warming policies
the policies are meant to control the populace
not the temperature

2022 Hunga Tonga-Hunga Haʻapai eruption and tsunami
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Hunga_Tonga%E2%80%93Hunga_Ha%CA%BBapai_eruption_and_tsunami
The eruption was rated at least a VEI-5 = Mt St. Helens
“Described by scientists as a “magma hammer”, the volcano at its height produced a series of four underwater thrusts, displaced 10 cubic kilometres (2.4 cu mi) of rock, ash and sediment, and generated the largest atmospheric explosion recorded by modern instrumentation”
“The eruption was the largest explosion recorded in the atmosphere by modern instrumentation, far larger than any 20th-century volcanic event or nuclear bomb test. It is thought that in recent centuries, only the Krakatoa eruption of 1883 rivalled the atmospheric disturbance produced”
Every time a large volcano erupts it puts millions of tonnes of sulfur dioxide into the sky and drastically cools that hemisphere for a few years. Why would anyone think cutting millions of tonnes of ship sulfur dioxide emissions wouldn’t have the same effect. This is exactly why there is active research into adding sulfur back into aviation fuels along with nanocarbon particles to reflect sunlight from the upper atmosphere the cooling effect with millions of flights per year would be dramatic. Sulfur also has a nasty habit of forming sulfuric acid and that eats ozone....This is why the aviation fuels had sulfur removed in the first place we kinda need the ozone layer for you know plant life.
Every city had a soot forcast in the winter 100 years ago.
