Title: “On the Present Halting of Global Warming.”

First line of abstract: “The rise in global average temperature over the last century has halted since roughly the year 2000, despite the fact that the release of CO2 into the atmosphere is still increasing.”

… Paragraph 2 in section 2.1 “Based on various climate change data, such as those of tree rings [5], glacial retreat [6] and river ice breakup [7], Akasofu [8] showed that global warming began as early as 1800 ~ 1850 and NOT AFTER CO2 began to increase very rapidly around 1946. Further, among these factors, the sea level increase from about 1850 to 2000 was also almost linear, though with a slightly decreasing rate [9].”

Capitalization of the words “NOT AFTER” is mine for emphasis. (The effect cannot occur before the theorized cause.) Full pdf of science paper at the link below.
