Are you aware of analysis evaluating nuclear testing and Global Warming?
I haven't really found anything myself and am hoping someone can point me in a direction. I have seen plenty of graphs comparing CO2 and solar activity, etc… but I haven't found any “professional” scientific analysis comparing above ground nuclear blast and climate observations over the last 100 years.
I have found annual average and rolling average temperature plots for the last 160 years, co-plotted with solar activity and atmospheric CO2.

I have found recent examples of how even volcanic eruptions putting dust/aerosols into the upper atmosphere can significantly alter the global climate very quickly.

And I can find information about the frequency of above-ground nuclear testing.

But I have not seen all this put together in an analysis. It looks to me that global warming was occurring fairly robustly from 1910 to mid-1940s based on the charts I have seen (as above). Then increasing global average temperatures abruptly turned around and headed cooler around 1945 and continued until about 1975. It looks like the slope (delta) of the rolling temperature average resumed back to about the 1910-1945 rate somewhere after 1975. 1974 was the last year that France tested nukes above ground… 9 tests and China performed 1. Only 8 tests were completed from '75 to '80 (the last above ground test) compared to the 520 tests between 1945 and 1975. More than 50% of those tests happened between 1958 and 1962.
I'm a scientist, but no climatologist. It just seems to me that this correlation could explain why the global temperature increases between 1910 and 1945 don't match atmospheric CO2 increases attributed to warming since 1975. I mean… there has to be some analysis or discussion of this correlation somewhere… but I can't find it. I just so doubt this is an original observation of mine that no one has considered.
Suv Cars In India
Two years ago, in 2008 we began noticing the change in the Indian car industry. Over 40 models were lined up for launch at an auto show that year and, for the very first time one was given the assurance of being able to see 35 SUVs in 2 years. Never before did the Indian consumer have so many options as far as SUVs were concerned. A year before that, in 2007, 3.5 Lakh SUVs were sold in India. That was indeed astounding and the SUV market has only grown since then.
The Indian roads have welcomed not just entry-level utility vehicles like the Mahindra Bolero and Tata Sumo Grande but also classy SUVs like the VW Tiguan and BMW X5. As the Indian economy takes a turn for the better, the lifestyle is also changing and traveling and weekend getaways have become common. What better vehicle can one have than an SUV for such family trips?
The city crowd that had been wanting something different than the usual sedans has been very happy since the coming in of the Honda CR-V. With its chic looks and cozy interiors the big monstrous car has attracted almost every Indian. In India, the SUV is available with two engines, a 2.0-litre i-VTEC that delivers 141 bhp and a 2.4-litre i-VTEC that stirs up 161 bhp. Then we also have other SUV cars in India like the Nissan X-Trail and Mitsubishi Pajero. But these haven’t been strong contenders for the Honda CR-V. The Chevrolet Captiva, though, looks full of promises for the SUV fanatics in India.
When it comes to SUV cars, there cannot be anything like Mahindra and Tata. The two auto makers are leaders in the segment with an entire array of SUVs just right for the Indian crowd and the humpy bumpy roads in India. The Mahindra Scorpio for example, with its stylish boxy frame is enough proof to prove the success of an Indian car maker in the SUV segment. When this particular car made its entry it was a hit in no time and created a wave of gusto among the Indian professionals. The car has its own class.
The Tata Safari is another SUV that has earned wide popularity even in petite towns. Following the Safari’s success, Tata Motors successfully uncovered the Sumo Grande at the Delhi Auto Expo which was again a great craze among the Indians. With its eye-catching features and spacious interiors, the Grande has certainly lived up to its grand name.
Next, we have the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Hyundai Tucson and the Ford Endeavour having their own place as stately vehicles in the minds of Indians and their car porches. The Volvo too, looking at the rest, finally launched its XC-90 for the class-loving SUV buyers. For those possessing an even higher exclusive taste, the Mercedes-Benz M-Class, the BMW X5, the Audi Q7, and the Porsche Cayenne SUVs are going to suffice.
