San Francisco Climate Comedy: More Fog, Less Fog ‘Consistent’ With Global Warming

Roger Pielke Jr observes on his blog: National Geographic reports yesterday: Declining fog cover on California’s coast could leave the state’s famous redwoods high and dry, a new study says. Among the tallest and longest-lived trees on Earth, redwoods depend on summertime’s moisture-rich fog to replenish their water reserves. But climate change may be reducing [...]

IPCC Hurricane Data Doesn’t Add Up

More trouble looms for the IPCC. The body may need to revise statements made in its Fourth Assessment Report on hurricanes and global warming. A statistical analysis of the raw data shows that the claims that global hurricane activity has increased cannot be supported. Read the entire article at The Register: Now IPCC hurricane data [...]

Nature Paper: Greenhouse Effect is Temporary

Hebrew University Scientists publish study in Nature: ‘AGW is refuted’ — ‘Claims that carbon emissions permanently increase global temperature are false’ Abstract; We use statistical methods designed for nonstationary time series to test the anthropogenic theory of global warming (AGW). This theory predicts that an increase in atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations increases global temperature permanently. [...]

Nigel Lawson Hits Back at The Independent’s Climate Claptrap

I have considerable affection for, and some slight connection with, The Independent. More than 40 years ago, when I was editor of the Spectator, I gave a promising young journalist called Andreas Whittam Smith his first column. A decade or so later he founded, and was the first editor of, The Independent. And in recent [...]

Antarctic Ice Shelf Collapse Possibly Triggered by Ocean Waves, Scripps-led Study Finds

Depicting a cause-and-effect scenario that spans thousands of miles, a scientist at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego and his collaborators discovered that ocean waves originating along the Pacific coasts of North and South America impact Antarctic ice shelves and could play a role in their catastrophic collapse. Peter Bromirski of Scripps Oceanography [...]

The Sunday Times: World may Not Be Warming

The United Nations climate panel faces a new challenge with scientists casting doubt on its claim that global temperatures are rising inexorably because of human pollution. In its last assessment the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) said the evidence that the world was warming was “unequivocal”. It warned that greenhouse gases had already heated [...]

CRU’s Phil Jones Interviewed: Disorganised, MWP Not Settled, No Warming Since 1995

The BBC website interview of  Phil Jones by warmist Roger Harrabin has caused quite a stir in the Sunday papers: Untold billions of pounds have been spent on turning the world green and also on financing the dubious trade in carbon credits. Countless gallons of aviation fuel have been consumed carrying experts, lobbyists and politicians [...]

Russell ‘Climategate’ Inquiry Will be a ‘Whitewash’ Unless Overhauled

The resignation of Philip Campbell from the Russell Review panel is indicative of the lack of depth, thought and objectivity going into the CRU inquiry. Dr Campbell was aware of what he had written in his Nature editorial and said in an interview to the Chinese media about his belief in the innocence of the [...]

New Study: Sea Level 1 Meter Higher, CO2 Lower 81,000 Years Ago

A new study has been published in the journal Science: Sea-Level Highstand 81,000 Years Ago in Mallorca Jeffrey A. Dorale,1,* Bogdan P. Onac,2,* Joan J. Fornós,3 Joaquin Ginés,3 Angel Ginés,3 Paola Tuccimei,4 David W. Peate1 Abstract: Global sea level and Earth’s climate are closely linked. Using speleothem encrustations from coastal caves on the island of [...]

Climategate Review Member Resigns

Within hours of the launch of an independent panel to investigate claims that climate scientists covered up flawed data on temperature rises, one member has been forced to resign after sceptics questioned his impartiality. In an interview last year with Chinese State Radio, enquiry panel member Philip Campbell, editor-in-chief of Nature said: “The scientists have [...]
