NASA Predicts Global Drop In Surface Temps

Data from NASA point to a powerful Pacific La Nina event in the works, and so with it could bring a considerable drop in the mean global surface temperature in 2021.

According to the latest report issued by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BOM), the La Nina conditions continue in the tropical Pacific: “International climate models suggest it is likely to continue at least through February 2021.”

 

Peak La Nina conditions expected in January 2021. Chart source: BOM.

Central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean sea surface temperatures (SSTs) are at La Niña levels and remain similar compared to two weeks ago, reports the BOM.

“Models continue to suggest some possibility that central and eastern tropical Pacific SSTs could briefly reach levels similar to 2010–12, with the peak most likely in December 2020 or January 2021.”

The BOM uses the ACCESS–S model for generating its forecasts.

NASA: temperature deviation to -3°C

Meanwhile, Snowfan here reports that NASA prognoses are in fact expecting an “unusually powerful La Niña development, with cooler than normal surface anomalies extending into the summer of 2021 and which could become an extended year-long event, which also occurred in 2010 – 2012.

“November 2020 sees an unusually strong La Niña in the equatorial Pacific with temperature deviations down to below -3°C and with unusually long duration until NH summer 2021,” Snowfan writes. “If the current NASA forecast is correct, a multi-year La Niña could develop into 2022, just like in 2010-2012.”

Strong and long La Niña events cool the Earth by several tenths of a degree Celsius with a time lag. The overall global cooling occurring since 2016 will therefore continue at least until 2021 and could even last until 2022.

Fuel for future bush fires

The BOM notes that La Niña events “typically enhance spring rainfall in northern, central and eastern Australia” and that during a La Niña summer, “above average rainfall is also typical for much of eastern Australia, but particularly eastern Queensland.”

But such good news comes with a price: Rainfall means more vegetation growth, which in turn will lead to much more fuel for future bush fires when drought conditions return, as they always inevitably do.

    “Data from NASA point to a powerful Pacific La Nina event in the works…”

    The Earth is heated by the Sun, not the Earth. Nina’s and Nino’s are the result of thermal energy created by the Sun’s radiation. In other words, NASA, and other ‘climate change’ frauds, admit every time they discuss El Nino or La Nina that it is thermal energy that heats the planet, not anemic infrared radiation.

    Greater than 94% of the energy contained within nitrogen and oxygen are unaccounted for by the ‘climate change’ narrative, informing us of the massive scientific fraud taking place, the purpose of the fraud to further weaken the West’s economies.

    [On March 16 Trump directed the nation to stay home for 15 days(!), his Marxist economic sabotage directive still in play. Immediately following Trump’s directive, governors/mayors declared illegal Executive Orders to lockdown the nation, thereby proving Marxist coordination between Federal/State/Local governments.

    No new investments will be taking place because investments require recouping the investments, and with the spectre of the fake COVID-19 returning, or equally fake new pandemics, future lockdowns are in the future, therefore no investments are on the horizon. In short, the United States has been turned into a Banana Republic overnight.]

    Nitrogen and oxygen constitute, by volume, 99.03% of the atmosphere’s gasses, while the trace gases account for 0.97%, or just under 1% of the atmosphere’s gasses. If we include water vapor (H2O) in the atmosphere, which accounts for, on average, 2% of the atmosphere’s gases by volume, we therefore subtract this 2% from the atmosphere’s gasses, where nitrogen and oxygen will constitute 97.0494%, and the trace gasses will constitute 0.9506%.

    Nitrogen and oxygen don’t absorb much infrared radiation (IR) emitted from the ground, and assuming they absorb 100% of thermal energy from the surface, constituting approximately 5% of Earth’s energy budget, we’re left with a massive energy deficit for nitrogen and oxygen, confirming that those two molecules derive their energy from thermal ground/ocean emissions instead, but since the ‘climate change’ narrative identifies such emissions as not thermal but IR, we have proof that the energy being emitted isn’t IR but thermal because nitrogen and oxygen absorb a miniscule amount of IR.

    We’re told that Nitrogen and oxygen obtain 5.1% of their heat energy from thermal energy emanating from the surface…

    https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bb/The-NASA-Earth%27s-Energy-Budget-Poster-Radiant-Energy-System-satellite-infrared-radiation-fluxes.jpg/1200px-The-NASA-Earth%27s-Energy-Budget-Poster-Radiant-Energy-System-satellite-infrared-radiation-fluxes.jpg

    …and another .078% of their heat energy from outgoing infrared radiation, leaving an energy deficit of approximately 94.8%.

    Since nitrogen and oxygen constitute by volume 97.0494% of the atmosphere’s gasses (when water vapor is included in the calculations making for a more precise calculation), they must therefore retain that volume amount of heat energy, but 18.4 Wm2 only constitutes 5.1% of the Earth’s Energy Budget of 358.2 Wm2. Nitrogen and oxygen’s absorption of infrared radiation would only infinitesimally affect this missing heat energy.

    The missing energy levels for nitrogen and oxygen direct our attention to another aspect of the scientific fraud taking place: Misidentified outgoing energy types. IR is assigned an energy magnitude of 358.2 Wm2, and thermals 18.4 Wm2. The opposite is closer to the truth, where IR is assigned 18.4 Wm2, and thermals 358.2 Wm2.

    Hence why:

    THERMODYNAMICS IS AWOL

    Climate change mechanics conspires to do away with the physics of the atmosphere, where action and reaction is abandoned. When a new gas molecule is introduced into the dense troposphere, dislocation takes place, where if the new molecule is denser than the atmosphere (contains less heat energy), such as carbon dioxide, the gas molecule sinks displacing upwards the warmer nitrogen and oxygen molecules, thereby cooling the area of dislocation. Conversely, if the new gas molecule has more heat energy than the nitrogen-oxygen based atmosphere (such as methane), the new molecule rises, displacing relatively cooler nitrogen and oxygen molecules downwards, which displaces upwards relatively more heat retaining nitrogen and oxygen molecules, thereby cooling the area of dislocation. Thermodynamics in action in the atmosphere that keeps the Earth cool when increased radiation isn’t the new variable introduced.

    At my blog, bead the articles…

    ‘House of Cards: The Collapse of the ‘Collapse’ of the USSR’

    ‘Playing Hide And Seek In Yugoslavia’

    Then read the article, ‘The Marxist Co-Option Of History And The Use Of The Scissors Strategy To Manipulate History Towards The Goal Of Marxist Liberation’

    Solution

    The West will form new political parties where candidates are vetted for Marxist ideology/blackmail, the use of the polygraph to be an important tool for such vetting. Then the West can finally liberate the globe of vanguard Communism.

    Hi Dean,
    The problem with you continually repeating the same thing to every is article that instead of reinforcing your position you become tedious and everyone quickly learns to ignore you. This results in that you ever have a germane opinion on the subject of the article nobody will read it.

    Yes Herb, I fully agree. I haven’t read a thing Dean has posted on PSI for months. The methods of communication he uses are propaganda which to any thinking person negates the purpose of the posts for propaganda is poor tool for discussion.

    When it is sunset in Peru, it is sunrise in Thailand > the Pacific Ocean is half of the world’s surface area, and driving force in Earth’s climate. Read Dr Arthur Viterito research on the direct relationship of Nino/Nina cycles and seismic activity, in PSI Publications. Variable volcanism is baseline for climate change.
