    2. Thus, radiative imbalance is, in part, what causes temperature variations and it occurs when the amount of solar energy lost and gained to the atmosphere are not equivalent. Spencer explains that, in 2007, the current man-made imbalance was hypothesized to be 0.85 W/m2. In comparison, the hypothesized average for both incoming and outgoing radiation at the top of the atmosphere was 240 W/m2. Furthermore, Spencer expresses that this relatively small portion also depends on a lot of assumed variables. “In other words, this small imbalance assumes all the natural forcings in the climate system are stable. This is unlikely to be true. The oceans can store or release huge amounts of heat without large temperature changes. Indeed, we already know that large radiative imbalances exist locally and regionally, for this is what drives much of our weather.” (Spencer)
