That's an interesting site, though in terms of the current dominant paradigm here I'm sure the data is all made up. As near as I can tell, though, Tisdale doesn't really agree with you about OHC (Ocean heat content) and greenhouse gas forcing, see bobtisdale.blogspot.com . That one is a little out of my depth. I think, though, that you're maybe not correct about the forcing needing to go into heat content somewhere; my understanding is that the heat coming in still for the most part gets radiated back out, it just shifts the radiation budget around.

There is a lot of stuff going on in the radiation budget, and I don't know how much of it gets reliably measured in the aggregate. There was this nice little satellite, DSCOVR aka Triana, that seemed set to provide a rather handy set of data on that, but it got killed due to an Al Gore association.
