Zusammenfassung: | A simple 3-parameter random walk model for monthly fluctuations $\triangle T$
of a temperature $T$ is introduced. Applied to a time range of 170 years,
temperature fluctuations of the model produce for about 14\% of the runs
warming that exceeds the observed global warming of the earth surface
temperature from 1850 to 2019. On the other hand, there is a 50\% likelihood
for runs of our model resulting in cooling. If a similar random walk process
can be used as an effective model for fluctuations of the global earth surface
temperature, effects due to internal and external forcing could be considerably
over- or underestimated. |
