Earth's Balanced Climates in View of their Energy Budgets

Thomas Anderl*

Earth’s well-known energy budget scheme is subjected to variations representing changes of insolation and atmospheric absorption. The Charney Report variability cases of doubled atmospheric CO₂ concentration and insolation increase by 2% are found reproducible. The planetary emissivity is revealed linear to surface temperature, conformant with measurements. Atmospheric water vapor with its characteristic concentration-temperature dependency appears as a major component in earth’s energy balancing mechanisms. As part of this, rising temperatures bear the probability increase for rainfall shifts towards fewer and stronger events.
