All planets possess a climate hence the only possible basis for climate research is finding common ground for comparisons between planets using traits common to all.

Trying to force climate into long term weather patterns by excluding planetary comparisons is merely a reckless shortcut for the careless who disrupt the normal flow of information between terrestrial sciences.

Planetary climate does not depend on distance from the Sun nor the orbital period of a planet, it depends on the degree of inclination to the planet's orbital plane which sets up a spectrum between an Equatorial climate (0 degree inclination) and a polar climate (90 degree inclination). All planets, including the Earth, fall within the spectrum.

If modelers wish to be productive then they can assign variations in the Earth's inclination in respect to an orbital plane and its normal 365 1/4 day period around the Sun.Once they become accustomed to sidelining the flawed notion of axial precession and focus on a planet's dual surface rotations to the Sun as it accomplishes an orbital circuit,they will then get a picture of what causes the seasons, why the noon cycles vary and all the other topics that are currently lost to speculative nonsense passed off as 'climate change'.

The groundswell of opinion towards a minor atmospheric gas cannot compete with the intellectual stature of people comfortable and confident with astronomical principles including the connection between the Earth's motions and the experiences of surface temperature conditions and the fluctuations daily and annually.

The most important advancement in the study of seasonal temperature fluctuations is found off planet as observers can see a planet turn in two separate ways to the central Sun -
