Monckton rips AP’s Seth Borenstein for touting UN IPCC’s meaningless 95% confidence in man-made global warming: Monckton: It is ‘no more scientific a process than a show of hands’

Dear Mr. Borenstein, – It would be appropriate to assign a statistical confidence interval as part of a statistical analysis of data, and only then. As you will know, a confidence interval of .95 corresponds to two standard deviations from the mean, and .99 to three standard deviations. However, there was no statistical analysis of […]

New paper finds another amplification mechanism by which the Sun controls climate: Published in Advances in Space Research finds small changes in solar wind speed may affect both the North Atlantic Oscillation [NAO] and the Arctic Oscillation [AO] on both short-term [day-to-day] and long-term [inter-annual] timescales’

New paper finds another amplification mechanism by which the Sun controls climate http://hockeyschtick.blogspot.com/2013/09/new-paper-finds-another-amplification.html A paper published today in Advances in Space Research finds small changes in solar wind speed may affect both the North Atlantic Oscillation [NAO] and the Arctic Oscillation [AO] on both short-term [day-to-day] and long-term [inter-annual] timescales. Both the NAO and AO […]

New paper predicts an increase of thunderstorms; Reality check: US thunderstorms peaked in the mid-20th century when CO2 was ‘safe’

New paper predicts an increase of thunderstorms; Reality check: US thunderstorms peaked in the mid-20th century when CO2 was ‘safe’ http://hockeyschtick.blogspot.com/2013/09/new-paper-predicts-increase-of.html A new paper claims CMIP5 climate models, which have been falsified by 3 peer-reviewed papers, project that thunderstorm activity will increase in the future. However, prior work has shown US thunderstorm activity peaked in the mid-20th […]
