Humlum in Clintel Lecture: look at ocean surface temperatures

By |2023-02-03T21:21:03+01:0015 January 2023|News, USA|Comments Off on Humlum in Clintel Lecture: look at ocean surface temperatures

"If it [a scientific hypothesis] disagrees with experiment, it’s WRONG." – Nobel Prize winner Richard Feynman According to the climate change narrative, modern global warming is largely the result of human emissions of CO2 into the atmosphere. But a recent lecture questioned that assertion with an important observation suggesting that ocean surface temperatures, not [...]

2022 Seventh Warmest Year: Warming Slows Down

By |2023-01-10T12:06:52+01:007 January 2023|News, Spain, USA|Comments Off on 2022 Seventh Warmest Year: Warming Slows Down

Guest Post by Javier Vinós reposted from Andy May's Climate Blog No minimally informed person denies that climate changes. The climate has always changed. Since 1860 the predominant climate change has been warming, which is fortunate because if we had a winter like those of 1800-1850, we would be in for a shock. [...]

Climate models unable to reproduce ocean surface temperatures

By |2023-02-03T21:20:43+01:002 January 2023|News, USA|Comments Off on Climate models unable to reproduce ocean surface temperatures

"If it [a scientific hypothesis] disagrees with experiment, it’s WRONG." – Nobel Prize winner Richard Feynman An earlier post of mine described how a group of prestigious U.S. climate scientists recently admitted that some climate models run too hot, greatly exaggerating future global warming. Now another group has published a research [...]

Ocean currents may be more important than the greenhouse effect

By |2022-12-13T11:32:51+01:0013 December 2022|News, USA|Comments Off on Ocean currents may be more important than the greenhouse effect

"If it [a scientific hypothesis] disagrees with experiment, it’s WRONG." – Nobel Prize winner Richard Feynman A rather different challenge to the CO2 global warming hypothesis from the challenges discussed in my previous posts postulates that human emissions of CO2 into the atmosphere have only a minimal impact on the earth’s temperature. Instead, it [...]

Meridional Transport, the most fundamental climate variable

By |2022-10-27T12:35:15+02:0027 October 2022|News, USA|Comments Off on Meridional Transport, the most fundamental climate variable

By Andy May “The atmospheric heat transport on Earth from the Equator to the poles is largely carried out by the mid-latitude storms. However, there is no satisfactory theory to describe this fundamental feature of the Earth’s climate.” (Barry, Craig, & Thuburn, 2002) This is the transcript of the talk I gave in [...]
