What is climate?

The system context and conditions that produce weather and other related geological systemic events. The historical system context and conditions and the projected future system context and conditions. The historical weather record and the projected future weather record.

Climate is a set of emergent properties of a complex system understood via monism (physicalism, argument from naturalism - methodological and ontological) and methodological reductionism and empiricism and the scientific method by the academy and the disciplines of mathematics and metrology and physics and chemistry and biology and geology and meteorology and oceanography and hydrology and cryospherics and climatology and paleoclimatology and cartology and helioseismology and heliophysics so on and so forth.

Climate is a set of emergent properties of the whole of the complex system earth which predicts the likelihood of behaviour events of the weather and other related geological system parts and other dependent biospheric system parts. For example behaviour events of climate dependent biospheric system parts may include extinction events. For example behaviour events of climate related geologocial system parts may include methane flux outgassing events which precede a biospheric system extinction event. Emergence of system properties and system behaviour relates to the system whole while methodological reductionism relates to the multilevel feedback loops of the system parts between the set of multiscale system parts and the system parts and the system whole.

For example one part of the climate system whole on earth is the human brain part of the biospheric system. The human brain part is an emergent property of the evolution of the naked ape complex system whole caused by environmental feedback loops in a bounded climate system context. The human mind is an emergent property of the complex system human brain part of the complex system naked ape whole. Anthropogenic greenhouse gases and anthropogenic induced global warming are effects caused by the function of the human mind.

Atmospheric gas constituents by volume Nitrogen N2 78.09%, Oxygen O2 20.95%, and Argon Ar 0.93%, almost entirely transparent to solar and terrestrial radiation and those green house gases opaque to infrared radiation but still largely transparent to solar radiation. The atmosphere is the most important reservoir sink for anthropegenic green house gases in relation to global warming and climate change.

Green house gases are those atmospheric gases that are opaque to infrared terrestrial radiation but still largely transparent to solar radiation and include inter alia by volume water vapour H20 0.4%, Carbon Dioxide CO2 0.04%, Nitrous Oxide N20, Methane CH4 0.00018%, Chlorofluoro-Carbon CFC-11, Hydrofluoro-Carbon-23 HFC-23 Perfluoro-Methane PFC-14. Carbon Dioxide CO2, Nitrous Oxide N20, and Methane CH4 are together circa 0.4% by mass of atmosphere. So very little green house gas as a proportion of atmosphere has a disproportionate effect on change entropy. Life cycle of different green house gases time to live in atmosphere vary as H20 2 weeks, CO2 5 to 200 years, CH4 12 years, N2O 144 years, CFC-11 (CCl3F) 45 years, HFC-23 (CHF3) 260 years, PFC-14 (CF4) >50,000.

Thermal energy. The second law of thermodynamics. More heat trapped in heat sinks is more energy trapped in global geological system. Transfer of heat energy between geological systems a cause of severe weather event entropy. The more heat energy the more powerful the severe weather event entropy effects. The greater the concentrations of green house gases the more radiant energy absorbed by geological system heat sinks. Atmospheric gas molecule internal energy increases with internal energy contribution to molecular heat capacity through translational, rotational, and vibrational excitation by reflected infrared thermal energy absorbed and held by the molecule. Infrared thermal energy as photon force and interaction carrier transports electromagnetic energy transforming energy, momentum, angular momentum, magnetic dipole moment, and electric dipole moment, in the molecular system. The molecular system particles change quantum state increasing internal energy absorbed and held as molecular heat capacity. Photon infrared spectrum wavelength carries photon electromagnetic energy which interacts with an electron particle of an atom of the molecular system transforming photon electromagnetic energy into molecular system internal energy by exiting state change of electron particle.

Albedo effect. Reflection and absorption of solar radiation. The greater the light coloured earths surfaces the more solar radiation is reflected back to space from the earths surface. The greater the dark coloured earths surfaces the more solar radiation is absorbed into the earths surface. Ice as it is light coloured reflects more solar radiation than the ocean which is darker coloured which absorbs more solar radiation. Clouds also contribute to the albedo effect due to condensed water vapours light colour. The less solar radiation reflected back to space the more solar radiation energy absorbed by geological system heat sinks.

Earths orbit. The earths orbit is elliptical and has a natural cyclical variation over millennia. The earths axis tilt too has a cyclical variation. The two motions in sync with the greatest axial tilt and greatest orbital distance from the sun are the cause of reduced solar radiation colder climate and natural cyclical variations in glacial ice cover. The more ice cover the more solar radiation reflected back to space so the less radiant energy absorbed into heat sink reservoirs in a feedback loop that can lead to a snowball earth.

Heat sinks. Reservoirs of thermal energy. Heat content of high level global oceans system layers from 0 to 2000 meters. Sea surface temperature. Land surface temperature. Heat content of the pedosphere. Heat content of the cryosphere. Heat content of troposphere low level atmospheric system layer. Oceans are more massive than atmosphere due to one thousand times greater density so oceans have four times specific heat capacity so most of heat is absorbed in oceans. Circa 80% to 90% of infrared radiant heat energy not lost to space is absorbed by oceans. One outcome of heat energy absorbed into the oceans is an increase in category four and five hurricanes. As oceans are liquid molecules are in contact with one another which is why heat capacity of oceans is so much greater. So energy transfer between molecules differs within ocean liquid molecule phase to that of atmospheric gas molecule phase.

Chemical sinks. Reservoirs of chemical elements and compounds. Carbon life cycle is part of a complex of chemical element life cycles and closely related to the life cycle of Oxygen and Hydrogen. Carbon is part of organic chemical compounds and inorganic chemical compounds. Carbon Dioxide is one of Carbons inorganic chemical compounds. Carbon Dioxide is transformed as one reactant input part in a chemical reaction whole which yields chemical product output parts. Conservation of mass and conservation of energy.

Chemical geology geochemistry. A large part circa 25% (disputed) of anthropogenic generated Carbon Dioxide released to the atmosphere is eventually exchanged into the oceans. However there are saturation limits. Green house gases and specifically Carbon Dioxide once emitted into the atmosphere can take thousands of years to cycle out of the atmosphere. Therefore the actual time to live of Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere due to other geological systemic limits can be thousands of years. Consequently the heat energy captured in the global heat sinks will not be dissipated for thousands of years in relation to the remaining atmospheric Carbon Dioxide continuing to limit infrared terrestrial radiation being released into space. At higher ocean temperatures Carbon Dioxide outgas flux exchange back to the atmosphere increases.

Atmospheric photochemistry. Photolysis photons interacting with atmospheric gas elements and molecules. Dioxygen O2, Ozone Tryoxigen O3, Nitrous Oxide N20, Water H2O, . Production of Dioxygen from water is as follows 2 x H2O + photon energy -> 4 x H + O2. Production of Dioxygen from Nitrous Oxide N2O is as follows 2 x N2O + photon energy -> 4 x N + O2. Where Hydrogen and Nitrogen product is lost to space and Dioxygen product remains in the atmosphere. Photolysis plays a part on Ozone depletion Ozone Tiroxygen O3 + photon energy -> O2 + O(1D) where O(1D) is Oxygen in an excited state. Ozone depletion with chloroflurocarbons CFCs where photolysis produces Chlorine radicals Cl*·* so CFCS + photon energy -> Cl*·* and Chlorine radical Cl· product.

Atmospheric catalysis. Chlorine radical Cl·, CFCS photolysis product, catalyses the conversion of Ozone Trioxygen O3 to O2 in reaction Cl· + O3 -> Cl·O + O2. However excited Oxygen atom O(1D), O3 depletion photolysis product, can react with water H2O to produce Hydorxyl radical ·OH in the following reaction O(1D) + H2O -> 2 x ·OH. Hydroxyl radicals react with Ozone depleting hydrocarbon molecules like CFCs to catalyse conversion molecules less harmful to the Ozone layer.

Atmospheric hydrolysis. The Oxygen cycle, the Nitrogen cycle, and the Sulphur cycle. Sulphur Dioxide SO2, Nitrous Oxide N2O, Hydroxyl OH, Dioxygen O2, Ozone Tryoxigen O3. Acid rain and Sulphur Dioxide S02 and Sulphuric Acid H2SO4, acid rain and Nitrous Oxide N20 and Nitric Acid HNO3,

Chemical biology biochemistry. A large part circa 25% (disputed) of anthropogenic generated Carbon Dioxide released to the atmosphere is eventually exchanged with the biosphere and fixed via photosynthesis to produce Oxygen released back to the atmosphere and Carbon fixed as organic chemical compounds such as complex Hydrocarbon sugars and Cellulose. Photosynthesis uses a photon which is solar radiation electromagnetic energy converts it to photoelectric energy using water as an electron donor and then to chemical energy as carbohydrate. So carbohydrates are stored sunshine. Oxygen is such a reactive element that it does not last long in the atmosphere and free Oxygen O2 produced by photosynthesis is cycled out in a matter of weeks.

6 x CO2 + 6 x H2O + photon energy -> C6H12O6 + 6 x O2

Photosynthesis takes place with plants on land and also by ocean plankton where Oxygen generated by photosynthesis is dissolved into the ocean and eventually exchanged with the atmosphere. Phytoplankton biomas is circa only 1% to 2% of global plant carbon but fixes circa 30 to 50 billion tons of carbon annually about 40% biomas fix total .

Carbon Dioxide exchanged to oceans is stored as inorganic carbon compounds of disolved CO2 and as carbonic acid, carbonate, bicarbonate. The oceans inorganic carbon compounds with ocean H2O as reactant in hydrolysis chemical reaction change ocean pH and affect the biogenic calcium carbonate shells of ocean calcifying organisms like plankton, corral, crustacean, molluscs and so on. The Carbon life cycle and Carbon Dioxide absorption into the oceans is the main cause of increased ocean acidification.

Saturation limits. In regard to anthropogenic greenhouse gas generation there is no upper limit to the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. There are limits to dissolved CO2 in ocean water. Natural sequestration of Carbon Dioxide is in the order of tens of millennia. Natural sequestration of Carbon Dioxide as ocean sediments, into lithosphere, and as organic chemical compounds on land into the pedosphere.

Plate tectonics. Lithosphere changes. Plasticity and the disappearing cryosphere. Lubrication of plates due to changes in the hydrosphere. Gravity and the movement of ocean water mass due to thermal expansion and ocean current changes. Gravity and the increase in ocean water mass. Ground water extraction. Drilling; Fracking, Geothermal,
