In our comments on the paper of Link and L\"udecke we document that theseauthors used rather improper quotations of our paper. They also argued on thebasis of false claims regarding our mathematical and physical description ofboth the global energy balance model of Schneider and Mass and the Dines-typetwo-layer energy balance model for the Earth-atmosphere system. They completelydisregarded the respective literature. They claimed excellent agreement betweentheir predicted Earth's surface temperature and the observed one even thoughthey only reproduced the temperature by an inverse application of the power lawof Stefan and Boltzmann. They also claimed that their result for the increasein the Earth's surface temperature of about 1.1 K due to the doubling of theatmospheric CO2 concentration is in good agreement with the IPCC value if nofeedback is considered. However, beside the fact that this result is not basedon model predictions, it also disagrees with the definition of theanthropogenic radiative forcing as can be found not only in the respectiveliterature, but also in various IPCC reports.
