A study presented in Nature Geoscience suggests that changes in solar intensity and volcanic eruptions act as a metronome for temperature variations in the North Atlantic climate.
A research team from the Bjerknes Centre for Climate Research in Bergen, Norway, has studied the climate in the North Atlantic region over the past 600 years using the Bergen Climate Model and the observed temperature evolution. They point to changes in the solar intensity and explosive volcanic eruptions as important causes for climate variations in the North Atlantic during this period.

Love the ending sentence about CO2 “...needing to be included...” ‘cuz otherwise their models don’t match observations.
Perhaps.
But, perhaps not.
I’ll bet on the latter.
Burps emitted by deep sea carp also contribute to warming.

Well, golllleeee, Gomer - who would've thunk that variations in solar intensity would lead to variations in surface temperature?
That's freakin' RADICAL !!!
see: http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/sunspots/
for todays single spot.
Far more CO2 and CH4 is emitted by ocean life than all land-based life combined. The ocean is a valuable resource in this aspect.
Yeah, that’s why I said that.
So what? All this means is that the Bushrovecheney disaster machine is even more powerful and evil, now that it’s been upgraded to the Palinbecklimbaugh doomsday machine! </envirowhacko>
My mistake, I meant far more photosynthesis goes on under the ocean (i.e. carbon intake) than all land-based plants combined.
Solar activity has been low to very low for many months.
Cool. Now I won’t feel guilty about driving my F-150 and F-250 trucks. (As if I did before.)
Besides, those Nordics want the world to get warmer, because the last time it did, back around AD 1000, the Vikings were able to go raping, pillaging, plundering, and conquering all over the northern hemisphere.

EPA’s Power Grab Endangers the Economy
Global Warming on Free Republic
They need that clause for funding reasons.
Thanks for the pings.
Not to mention farm cattle in Greenland during the early Mideval times.
The Norse were an agricultural people. Had they adopted the hunter-gatherer culture of their Inuit neighbors, they might have survived the Little Ice Age.
My pleasure. :’)
