Major Portion of the Increased Atmospheric Concentration of Carbon Dioxide Emitted by the Oceans

This paper continues the application of Henry’s Law to climate change. The basic ideas have been covered in our previous paper. We separately calculated the concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere as a function of time emitted by the oceans and human contribution. We know that the sum of those two concentrations was equal to the observed one. Note that the carbon dioxide emitted by the oceans depends only on the temperature. We can verify our theory by calculating the global temperature using only the observed atmospheric carbon dioxide emitted by the oceans, which is convincing evidence of Henry’s Law. In this paper, we will present additional evidence using the measured abundance of <sup>13</sup>CO<sub>2</sub> in the atmosphere starting from the 18<i><sup>th</sup></i> century. We will also show that the concentrations of N<sub>2</sub>O and SF<sub>6</sub> follow Henry’s Law and that human contributions are insignificant. Note that these concentrations can be used as a thermometer to measure global temperature. However, as a thermometer, CO<sub>2</sub> is better due to its higher concentration in the atmosphere.

Abstract

This paper continues the application of Henry’s Law to climate change. The basic ideas have been covered in our previous paper. We separately calculated the concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere as a function of time emitted by the oceans and human contribution. We know that the sum of those two concentrations was equal to the observed one. Note that the carbon dioxide emitted by the oceans depends only on the temperature. We can verify our theory by calculating the global temperature using only the observed atmospheric carbon dioxide emitted by the oceans, which is convincing evidence of Henry’s Law. In this paper, we will present additional evidence using the measured abundance of <sup>13</sup>CO<sub>2</sub> in the atmosphere starting from the 18<i><sup>th</sup></i> century. We will also show that the concentrations of N<sub>2</sub>O and SF<sub>6</sub> follow Henry’s Law and that human contributions are insignificant. Note that these concentrations can be used as a thermometer to measure global temperature. However, as a thermometer, CO<sub>2</sub> is better due to its higher concentration in the atmosphere.
