More Phenomenological Evidence from Scafetta on Climate Oscillations

Empirical evidence for a celestial origin of the climate oscillations and its implications Nicola Scafetta, Active Cavity Radiometer Irradiance Monitor (ACRIM) Lab, Coronado, CA 92118, USA Department of Physics, Duke University, Durham, NC 27708, USA Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics Volume 72, Issue 13, August 2010, Pages 951-970 doi:10.1016/j.jastp.2010.04.015 Abstract: We investigate whether or [...]

Mid-20th Century Cooling Not Due to Aerosols

The hiatus of global warming in the Northern Hemisphere during the mid-20th century may have been due to an abrupt cooling event centered over the North Atlantic around 1970, rather than the cooling effects of tropospheric pollution, according to a new paper appearing in Nature. News release from Colorado State University: Sudden ocean cooling contributed [...]

Geologist Discovers Pattern in Earth’s Long-Term Climate Record

(Santa Barbara, Calif.) –– In an analysis of the past 1.2 million years, UC Santa Barbara geologist Lorraine Lisiecki discovered a pattern that connects the regular changes of the Earth’s orbital cycle to changes in the Earth’s climate. The finding is reported in this week’s issue of the scientific journal Nature Geoscience. Lisiecki performed her [...]

Surprise! UK Warmer Since End of Little Ice Age

A new paper has been published in the journal Proceedings B of The Royal Society entitled: ‘A 250-year index of first flowering dates and its response to temperature changes’ and is reported by left-leaning BBC warmist Richard Black here, who writes: British plants are flowering earlier now than at any time in the last 250 [...]

Do Short Global Warm Periods Herald Transition to Glacial Epochs?

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 [...]

CSIRO: Jury Still Out on Climate Change Link to Droughts

Australia’s peak science agency, the CSIRO, has backed away from attributing a decade of drought in Tasmania to climate change, claiming ”the jury is still out” on the science. The comments follow the issuing of a CSIRO report yesterday, revealing drought has cut water availability in northern Tasmania’s premier wine growing region by 24 per [...]

More Evidence That Disaster Losses Aren’t Linked To Greenhouse Gases

Roger Pielke Jr reports on a new paper by J. L. Barredo titled: “No upward trend in normalised windstorm losses in Europe: 1970–2008″ in the open access journal Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences. You can glean from the title the message of the paper. Here is an excerpt from the introduction: There is now clear [...]

Press Release on New Study ‘Influence of the Southern Oscillation on Tropospheric Temperature’

Nature not man responsible for recent global warming Three Australasian researchers have shown that natural forces are the dominant influence on climate, in a study just published in the highly-regarded Journal of Geophysical Research. According to this study little or none of the late 20th century global warming and cooling can be attributed to human [...]

New Peer Reviewed Study: Influence of the Southern Oscillation on Tropospheric Temperature

A new paper has been published in the Journal of Geophysical Research – Atmospheres entitled: ‘Influence of the Southern Oscillation on tropospheric temperature’ by McLean, J. D., C. R. de Freitas, and R. M. Carter (2009)Geophys. Res., 114, D14104, doi:10.1029/2008JD011637. The Abstract states: Time series for the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) and global tropospheric temperature [...]

Natural Climate Shifts: Swanson v Tsonis

Tsonis et al have published 3 interesting studies (2007, 2009, 2009) on how natural climate cycles could account for the climate/temperature shifts in the 20th and 21st centuries. The main authors Anastasios Tsonis and Kyle Swanson appear to have slightly conflicting opinions in media articles as to the significance of their work to the case [...]
