The reports of temperature rise within last two years are really surprising for all researchers in the field, what are the causes?

For the 2014 the matter is even worse. Have we miss something in the models of climate change, because these peaks are unpredictable by any model?
Do you think this rise will be stopped or delayed or will continue?
Do you think the magnetic polarity reversal has a relation with this rise?
The temperature rise might indicate some extreme events that are induced by the climate change phenomena
I think the rise will continue gradually, if mitigation measures will not be taken.
I'm not sure that the magnetic polarity has some impacts on the solar flux and intensity that induce the temperature rise.
Climate is defined as the average of the WEATHER over a period of at least THIRTY years: there is no climate change in TWO years
Please read the definition of Climate Change in for instance Wikipedia and references there
Thanks Harry for your note;
The question is about the huge variations that are happened within the last two years. The simulation models usually are put to simulate climate changes, so when I'm asking about predictions of these models for this huge variation by default these models are describing climate change. Nevertheless there are limits for each individual year that usually should not be crossed. The problem is these limits might be crossed over for the last two years.
Which huge variations? Please be specific because then we can discuss your issue
The global temperature for instance does not show this, as you may see for yourself by googling for NASA in combination with global temperature

The first reference is on CO2 concentration over a period of 400000 years so it does not underline your remark of a temperature rise in the last two years
Your second reference indicates that 2014 may be the warmest year on record but it does not mention "extreme peaks"
Whatever, all are serious indications that support each other and inform that the earth warming may be tend to change towards new trends.

I asked you for the references of your own question that we discuss here:
"There are extreme peaks of temperature rise rate"
Now you say "the earth warming may be tend to change towards new trends"
What do you exactly/scientifically mean with that?
simply there are multifactors are combining together to perform higher rates of global warming. If you want to study temperature raising rates you also need to look to other factors that affect it which one of them CO2 levels. So when you have peaks in more than one factor in the same year then the logical conclusion we have a motive force towards a new change in the trend, what do you think?
What peaks are you thinking of?
Most greenhouse gases show a steady increase not peaks
