Models don’t over-estimate warming?
I thought I might write about the new paper by Jochem Marotzke and Piers Forster called Forcing, feedback and internal variability in global temperature trends. It’s already been discussed in a Carbon Brief post called claims that climate models overestimate … Continue reading
Extreme snowstorms
The northeastern USA has just experienced a fairly intense snowstorm that has seen more than 20 inches of snow fall in Boston. There have been a couple of interesting articles about this. Eric Holthaus points out that this is just … Continue reading
Monckton doubles down – again!
Recently, I wrote a post pointing out major issues with Monckton et als. recent paper. Stoat thinks it’s complete trash. Arthur Smith has an excellent post discussing real problems with Monckton’s equations. Jan Perlwitz has a post pointing out that … Continue reading

Puerto Casado
Christopher Booker has a new article in the The Telegraph called Climategate, the sequel: How we are STILL being tricked with flawed data on global warming. The title alone should be enough to convince anyone sensible that it isn’t really … Continue reading
Pragmatic climate policy
Given that I’ve now been outed (largely thanks to Anthony Watts and Richard Tol, I believe) Rachel had suggested I write a post about myself. I might, at some stage, but thought I would first write about something that was … Continue reading
“More than half” is the same as “> 50%”!
A while ago Judith Curry wrote a rather confusing post about the IPCC’s attribution statement (that more than 50% of the warming since 1950 was anthropogenic). Gavin Schmidt responded on RealClimate, and Judith Curry has been promising to respond to … Continue reading
Matt Ridley: Lukewarmer
Matt Ridley has a quite remarkable article in the Times called My life as a Lukewarmer (extensive exerts here). I’ve written about Lukewarmers before, but I had not realised – until I read Matt Ridley’s article – how difficult things … Continue reading

The designers of our climate
Okay, I finally succumbed and actually waded through some of the new paper by Monckton, Soon, Legates & Briggs called Why models run hot: results from an irreducibly simple climate model. I did it, so you don’t have to (and … Continue reading
2+2=4, therefore Einstein is wrong!
This is a post I’d thought of writing for a while, but given the small furore over the error in the recent Cawley et al. (2015) paper, I thought I’d do so now. Let me first explain my title (which … Continue reading
Ice sheet retreat
It is quite regularly pointed out – by Steve Bloom and others – that the Pliocene (5 – 3 million years ago) is quite interesting since the temperatures were 2 – 3oC higher than today, sea levels were 20 – … Continue reading
