Article by Ronan Connolly, Michael Connolly and Willie Soon, originally published at Ceres Science. In the last month, we have co-authored three papers in scientific peer-reviewed journals collectively dealing with the twin problems of (1) urbanization bias and (2) the ongoing debates over Total Solar Irradiance (TSI) datasets: Soon et al. (2023). [...]
Why matching of CMIP5 model-simulated to observed warming does not indicate model skill Guest post by Nicholas Lewis. Originally published at Judith Curry's blog Climate Etc. A well-known Dutch journalist, Maarten Keulemans of De Volkskrant, recently tweeted an open letter to the Nobel-prizewinning physicist Professor Clauser in response to his signing of the Clintel [...]
Reposted from CERES-Science A new study published in the scientific peer-reviewed journal, Climate, by 37 researchers from 18 countries suggests that current estimates of global warming are contaminated by urban warming biases. The study also suggests that the solar activity estimates considered in the most recent reports by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel [...]

John F. Clauser, winner of the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on quantum mechanics, has decided to sign the World Climate Declaration of Clintel with its central message “there is no climate emergency”. Clauser is the second Nobel Laureate to sign the declaration, Dr. Ivar Giaever was the first. [...]
By Javier Vinós reposted from Andy May Petrophysicist Over the past two decades, solar activity has been characterized by an extended solar minimum spanning two solar cycles, known as the Clilverd Minimum. This phenomenon is currently affecting the climate, but before we can understand its impact, we must address the significant discrepancy [...]
by Jim Johnstone and Judith Curry reposted from Climate Etc. With the Atlantic hurricane season underway, we are closely monitoring the exceptionally warm SSTs in the Atlantic. This post describes what has been happening and why. Atlantic SSTs Sea surface temperatures (SSTs) over much of the North Atlantic are exceptionally high in [...]
By Andy May In May 2023, Clintel published a book (see figure 1) criticizing AR6 (IPCC, 2021), a publication that was supposed to summarize climate science research to date. We found that AR6 was biased in its reporting of recent developments in climate science, and they ignored published research contrary to their narrative that [...]
The media all over the world are making headlines, telling us that the Greenland Ice Sheet is melting at an accelerating speed. The data for melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet, however, give us no basis for such a conclusion, says guest author Jørgen Keinicke. The climate of Greenland is, just like the [...]
