Real Climate Science

Gavin Schmidt says that September was the hottest on record.

September had the third highest northern hemisphere snow cover on record.

September had the highest southern hemisphere  ice cover on record

Gavin showed the area around Antarctica hot, while satellites showed it cold.

Gavin showed offshore West Antarctica 4C above normal, while satellites showed it 4C below normal

Only problem with Gavin’s analysis is – he didn’t actually have any temperature data around West Antarctica. He made it all up.

Satellites showed September 15th warmest since 1979 – i.e. just about average. GISS is diverging from satellites at almost 13°C/century

We live in a world where government scientists are encouraged to fabricate data and defy the laws of science.

The BOM thermometer at Canberra Airport is cleverly located adjacent to a huge parking lot, and showed 2013 as the hottest year ever. That thermometer shows Canberra warming at 3.3°C/century since 1996

Lower troposphere temperatures measured by satellites above Canberra tell a completely different story. Last year was cooler than average, and is cooling since 1996.

Gavin had almost no data in Antarctica last month, as shown below

So he simply made it up, and made created a completely fake hottest September ever.

But there was a little problem. Antarctica had record sea ice  last month, which our corrupt friends at NASA show covered with record heat. The animation below overlays the record sea ice on the GISS fake and measured data. Note that the areas of excess ice around East Antarctica are reported as above normal temperature. That defies the laws of science.

It is completely corrupt, but it is worse than it seems. Most of the stations which Gavin shows as having high anomalies relative to the 1951-1980 baseline, don’t actually have any data from that period.

The whole GISS temperature record has become scientific malfeasance – from top to bottom.

From the “testing progressives to see how just far their stupidity extends” department.

Antarctica set an all-time record for sea ice last month, and Gavin says it was record hot there.

As I predicted, Gavin has reached a tipping point. He claims that September was hottest on record. More accurate satellite data shows that it was only 15th warmest since 1979, and just above average.

Over the past five years, GISS September temperature is diverging from RSS at 12.7°C per century, with a nearly perfect R-squared correlation greater than 0.98.

I picked five random grid cells from the RSS database – one on each coast and one in the interior. They show no net warming since 1979. I’ve run this experiment a few times using different grid cells, and they all produce about the same result.

The two highest mid-October Arctic sea ice extents of the past decade occurred in the last two years.

October is looking to do a repeat of last month’s record snow cover

And Antarctic sea ice extent is near a record high.

Climate experts call this a meltdown.

The BOM Melbourne thermometer is cleverly situated adjacent to many lanes of asphalt in downtown Melbourne, and shows a hockey stick of warming, with last year as the hottest year ever.

By contrast, satellite temperatures of the lower troposphere over Melbourne show a slight cooling trend for the past 18 years, with last year pretty close to the long term mean.

BOM then takes the severely tainted urban data, and contaminates surrounding rural stations through a process known as “homogenisation”

The BOM Sydney thermometer is cleverly located adjacent to 21 lanes of asphalt, and shows a hockey stick of warming.

By contrast, satellite temperatures taken of the lower troposphere over Sydney show a slight cooling trend over the last 18 years

NASA’s plans to return astronauts to the moon are dead. So are the rockets being designed to take them there — that is, if President Barack Obama gets his way.

the White House will direct NASA to concentrate on Earth-science projects — principally, researching and monitoring climate change
