Real Climate Science

Gavin and the clowns at NCDC juggled fake temperatures to get a world record temperature by 0.01 degrees – ahead of the fake Lima climate talks. But regardless of their fake temperatures, it is all a distraction from the fact that temperatures are below Hansen’s zero emissions after the year 2000 Scenario C

And no, 2014 is not a record year by any stretch of the imagination.

Whatever claims they make about “record heat” are far below what climate models predicted, and are just a distraction from the fact that even their own fake temperatures are not alarming.

There are 318 US HCN stations which recorded their min/max readings during morning or night on July 15, 1936. These stations should have an artificial warming bias, because of TOBS double counting of low temperatures in the 1930’s.

Like the full set of stations, these stations show little or no warming since 1920, which tells us that the effect of TOBS is minimal – and that the US is not on a long term warming trend.

Obama’s war on coal has no impact on skyrocketing global coal usage. Its only purpose is to hurt Americans

Almost all of the climate claims from NCDC are fraudulent, but none more than the Climate Extremes Index – which shows the exact opposite of the actual trend. 

Since 1992, the tide gauge at Atlantic City shows 3.3 mm/year sea level rise, while satellites show 2.1 mm/year. This indicates that the land is subsiding more than 1mm/year.

Both are down from the century average of 4.1 mm/year

NOAA has reached new levels of fraud in their 2014 Arctic report card, with nearly every single talking point the exact opposite of reality.

What’s new in 2014?

Rising air and sea temperatures continue to trigger changes in the Arctic. The Arctic is warming at twice the rate of anywhere else on Earth.

Nonsense. The Arctic hasn’t warmed for a decade.

North of 80N, the melt season was the coldest on record, with below normal temperature every day

The warming Arctic atmosphere was strongly connected to lower latitudes in early 2014 causing cold air outbreaks into the eastern USA and warm air intrusions into Alaska and northern Europe.

Nonsense. In the 1970’s they blamed the identical pattern on excess Arctic ice and global cooling. There isn’t one smidgen of science behind the NOAA claim.

Snow cover extent in April 2014 in Eurasia was the lowest since 1967 and sea ice extent in September was the 6th lowest since 1979.

Mind-boggling levels of dishonesty. Fall/Winter Northern Hemisphere snow cover was at or near the highest on record.

President Obama committed China to a doubling of CO2 emissions, while agreeing to throttle the US economy with a 20% reduction. But why not go big like North Korea, which has already achieved an 80% reduction in CO2 emissions?

NCDC and NASA complain that the US temperature record is problematic, but this is complete BS. I tried splitting the 1200 HCN stations into two nearly evenly sized groups, those whose station number ends in 0-4 and those whose station number ends in 5-9. There is no overlap in the groups and group placement is for all intents and purposes random.

As you can see, they produce almost identical trends, indicating that the US surface temperature record is excellent, and adjustments are unnecessary and unwanted. Trying to adjust individual stations is scientific madness.
