EARTH'S TEMPERATURE / CO₂ EQUILIBRIUM PRIOR TO 1850

The observed relationship between Earth's temperature and CO₂ concentration in the atmosphere during glacial and interglacial periods from 420,000 years ago up to 1850 has still not been satisfactorily explained. It is proven that CO₂ movements lag temperature, but why did the concentration mov...

Zusammenfassung:The observed relationship between Earth's temperature and CO₂ concentration in the atmosphere during glacial and interglacial periods from 420,000 years ago up to 1850 has still not been satisfactorily explained. It is proven that CO₂ movements lag temperature, but why did the concentration move up and down in a regular pattern? No universally accepted conclusion exists that can be reliably used for modelling "what if scenarios.
