Dr Gray: 2xCO2 up global temp only 10% as much as GCM’s suggest; 0.7C rise from ocean salinity chgs

Recent papers like the ones that I posted are telling you that this is to be expected for a -PDO period with more

frequent La Nina years. There is no doubt that the Pacific has an important role to play in modulating the

short term rises in global temperature. While over the long term the steady rate of warming will continue.

As I said, the PDO is important, but probably not the only factor. As seen in the Greenwire article, there are many, many factors to consider.
