>>11083680>I guess, but even when looking at ice core samples, the only correlation between c02 and temp is that c02 rises 600-800 years after temp.Ice cores don't represent global temperature, they represent temperature in one place in Antarctica or Greenland. If you look at global temperature you will see CO2 increase preceding interglacial warming:
http://www.atm.damtp.cam.ac.uk/mcintyre/shakun-co2-temp-lag-nat12.pdfThis is because interglacial warming is begun by increased insolation in the Arctic, which causes ice to melt and the disruption of the AMO, which then causes the Antarctic and oceans in the southern hemisphere to warm. This in turn causes large amounts of CO2 to be released, warming the entire Earth. So at the poles you see CO2 lagging temperature change, but globally you see temperature lagging CO2.
