TOA EEI versus Surface Net Flux
The Earth Energy Imbalance (EEI) is calibrated or “tuned” to match changes in ocean heat content. TOA radiation measurements need tuning. Given the AMO oscillation is 60-70 years long, is…
Stefani on the Sun vs. CO2 as climate drivers
The solar aa index predicts global sea surface temperatures to 2000 better than CO2, and as well as CO2 combined with the aa index. After 2000 CO2 is needed in…
Is the Ocean Surface a boundary condition?
The ocean skin layer is not a boundary condition or infinitesimally small surface and should not be treated as such.
Efficacy of downwelling IR
Is 90% of increasing ocean heat content due to man-made greenhouse gases as claimed by the consensus and the IPCC?
Holocene Glacier Records
Recent glacial records do not support the idea of anthropogenic global warming.
Holocene Warming
It is highly unlikely that today is the warmest Earth has been in the past 6,800-7,800 years or that today’s warming is unprecedented.
Re-evaluating the Concern of Climate Change
By Andy May I’ve just been made aware of a paper critical of the “consensus” view that man-made climate change is dangerous. It is by Ashutosh Sharma, Vinit Vithalrai Shenvi,…
Weather Reanalysis Models
By Andy May My new paper (May, 2025) emphasizes that while many of the underlying observations used to build weather reanalysis datasets, such as ERA5 (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather…
R Programming tips to read and plot IGRA2 Radiosonde data
By Andy May R is an extremely powerful programming language for processing, analyzing and displaying data from large datasets. As discussed in the first post of this series on analyzing…
The Story behind my Paper on the ITCZ and the Hadley Circulation
By Andy May It all began eight years ago when I read and reviewed Ronan and Michael Connolly’s first three papers on their ideas about the “molar density intersection” which…
What is a “climate crisis?”
By Andy May In a new paper by Gianluca Alimonti and Luigi Mariani, they argue that the public needs a proper definition of precisely what a climate crisis is to…
