Eventually, some negative feedback effects will counter the positive feedback. He believes the new fixed point is say 10 degrees higher but we could end up like Venus and be hundreds of degrees higher.<BR/><BR/>CarsonCarson C.

From your synopsis, it almost sounds like the research might suggest that earth's temperature could turn into a form of feed-forward process. Is there some other negative feedback mechanism that wasn't mentioned?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10112790.post-1159582126480652392006-09-29T22:08:00.000-04:002006-09-29T22:08:00.000-04:00Hi Hedi,Yes, I wanted to stay in character.
