RSS‘Over the period of 1965–2008, the global Tropical Cyclone (TC) activity, as measured by storm days, shows a large amplitude fluctuation regulated by ENSO and PDO, but has no trend, suggesting that rising temperature so far has not yet an impact on global total number of storm days.’ Wang, B., Y. Yang, Q.‐H. Ding, H. [...]
In the climate controversy dubbed Kiwigate New Zealand skeptics inflict shock courtroom defeat on climatologists implicated in temperature data fraud. New Zealand’s government via its National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) has announced it has nothing to do with the country’s “official” climate record in what commentators are calling a capitulation from the [...]
Roger Pielke Sr reports on an in press paper on his blog: There is an excellent new paper by Bob Knox and David Douglas that provides further insight into the issue of the monitoring of global climate system heat changes. The paper is: R. S. Knox, David H. Douglass 2010: Recent energy balance of Earth [...]
NOAA on the 2010 Russian Heat Wave (excerpt): Despite this strong evidence for a warming planet, greenhouse gas forcing fails to explain the 2010 heat wave over western Russia. The natural process of atmospheric blocking, and the climate impacts induced by such blocking, are the principal cause for this heat wave. It is not known [...]
A Primer on the Global Death Toll from Extreme Weather Events — Context and Long Term (1900–2008) Trends Background Based on 2000–08 data, extreme weather events are responsible for about 0.05% of all global deaths (31,700 deaths vs. 58.8 million, annually). That is, despite the media attention to such events, extreme weather events have a [...]
US Government admits global warming satellite sensors “degraded” – temperatures may be out by 10-15 degrees. Now five satellites in controversy. Top scientists speak out. In an escalating row dubbed ‘Satellitegate’ further evidence proves NOAA knew of these faults for years. World’s top climate scientists and even prior governmental reports cite underfunding and misallocation as [...]
SAN FRANCISCO, March 22, 2010 — Cutting back on consumption of meat and dairy products will not have a major impact in combating global warming — despite repeated claims that link diets rich in animal products to production of greenhouse gases. That’s the conclusion of a report presented here today at the 239th National Meeting [...]
WASHINGTON – In a new research, scientists have found that treelines are not universally responding to climate warming by advancing as expected. Treelines are the elevation or latitudinal limits where trees are capable of growth or survival and are considered to be early indicators of climate warming because they are constrained primarily by cold temperatures. [...]
Halle (Saale)/Leipzig/Moscow. At the end of the last interglacial epoch, around 115,000 years ago, there were significant climate fluctuations. In Central and Eastern Europe, the slow transition from the Eemian Interglacial to the Weichselian Glacial was marked by a growing instability in vegetation trends with possibly at least two warming events. This is the finding [...]
Global warming dominates the headlines, but in the UK the cold of winter is much more hazardous to health – especially for the elderly and the sick. For every degree the temperature drops below 18C, deaths in the UK go up by nearly 1.5%. This year, any new year’s resolutions that involve strenuous outdoor activity [...]
