I have been rather surprised that this paper did not get more play (probably a boring press release...) since it is the first attempt to measure and quantify the effects of low cloud feedback.<br /><br />Most of the paper seemed to be based on measurements and the measurements pointed to bad results -- a lessening of low clouds over the oceans.

I really hate seeing a phrase like "Lin’s experiment predicts that ..." Since when do experiments predict? Is it really impossible to make measurements that aren't fatally entwined with the models whose results they are trying to test?<br /><br />CIPAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
