Pielke Sr Compares Upper Ocean Heat Content Changes With The GISS Model Predictions

Roger Pielke Sr has an interesting post on his climate science weblog entitled: ‘Update On A Comparison Of Upper Ocean Heat Content Changes With The GISS Model Predictions’ Do read it all, but the ‘bottom line’ is here: OBSERVED BEST ESTIMATE OF ACCUMULATION Of JOULES [assuming a baseline of zero at the end of 2002]. [...]

Greenland’s Ice Armageddon on Hold

Richard Kerr of Science magazine reports on a presentation at the recent fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union in a News Focus article entitled: ‘Galloping Glaciers of Greenland Have Reined Themselves In’ Ice loss in Greenland has had some climatologists speculating that global warming might have brought on a scary new regime of wildly [...]

Short Term Sea Level Rise Slows by 20%

A new paper published in Global and Planetary Change by Cazenave et al entitled, ‘Sea level budget over 2003–2008: A reevaluation from GRACE space gravimetry, satellite altimetry and Argo’ suggests that sea level rise has slowed by 20% for 2003 to 2008, compared to 1993 to 2003 (2.5mm/yr compared to 3.1mm/yr). The Abstract states: From [...]

A Close Correlation with CO2

The IPCC Numbers Game: 4000 = 60

How many times have you heard or read words to the effect that 4000 scientists from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate change (IPCC) supported the claims about a significant human influence on climate? I think I’ve seen it on television, radio and the Internet and I know that politicians at national levels have quoted such [...]

Corals Damaged by Tsunami Show Rapid Recovery

Scientists have reported a rapid recovery in some of the coral reefs that were damaged by the Indian Ocean tsunami four years ago. It had been feared that some of the reefs off the coast of Indonesia could take a decade to recover. The New York-based Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) found evidence of rapid growth [...]

Mystic Met: A Review of UK Met Office Predictions and Statements

The Met Office is the UK Government’s official Meteorological agency and a key promoter of climate alarmism, which claims that simulation models are now accurate predictors of both global and local effects of stimuli to the climate. Presented below is a chronology of notable predictions via Met Office press releases and media articles starting on [...]

Swiss Glaciers: Shrinking Trend Since 19th Century

A study of Swiss Glacier mass balance by Huss et al, presented at the AGU 2008 Fall Meeting, uses a mixture of direct data and modelling. The scientists analysed the mass trends from 1900 to 2007. Over this period, there is a significant negative trend. It is not linear, however. There are two distinct phases [...]

Pacific Decadal Oscillation Rules as Pacific Cools

NASA/JPL News: PASADENA, Calif. — The latest image of sea-surface height measurements from the U.S./French Jason-1 oceanography satellite shows the Pacific Ocean remains locked in a strong, cool phase of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation, a large, long-lived pattern of climate variability in the Pacific associated with a general cooling of Pacific waters. The image also [...]

No Long-Term Trends in The Start Of Freeze-Up And Melt Of Antarctic Sea Ice?

As with the Arctic, the finding in this data is that there is no clear evidence of a change in the start of freeze up or the start of the melt. Unlike the Arctic sea ice, of course, the Antarctic maximum sea ice areal coverage has actually tended to be increasing in recent years. As [...]
