Despite the overestimated inter-model spread, our results show a robust enhancement of extreme precipitation with more than 90% of models simulating an increase of RV20.

Interpreting extreme climate impacts from large ensemble simulations—are they unseen or unrealistic?
Consequently, conventional evaluation and correction methods cannot determine whether simulations outside observed variability are correct for the right physical reasons.
Inside Climate News Confuses Models with Reality
If the current models used for temperature prediction are not accurate, then the food production models that rely on them cannot be expected to be accurate either.
Atmospheric Fingerprint
By Andy May The IPCC believes that the change in solar radiation over the past 60 years nets to zero and has no trend beyond the normal ~11-year solar cycle.…

Comparing AR5 to AR6
By Andy May The IPCC AR5 report was published in 2013 and the CMIP5 climate models they used, have been shown to predict faster warming than observed in the tropical…
Climate tipping might not always be disastrous
Crossing a tipping point may lead to many other situations than the generally assumed catastrophic outcome
Climate Model Democracy
By Andy May In my last post, I explained how the IPCC attempts to use climate models to show humans have caused the recent global warming. Models are useful for…
German Paper: “A Mild Additional Temperature Rise Of Around 1°K”… Drop Not Excluded By 2100!
The results point to only a moderately warming planet up to the year 2150.
Meandering Through A Climate Muddle
Guest Post By Willis Eschenbach One reason that I’m always hesitant to speculate on other peoples’ motives is that half the time I have no clue about my own motives.…

UCL Professor: “Modelling climate change is much easier” than Weather
The diverse predictions produced by 20 major research centres represent “strength in numbers”, according to UCL Professor of Earth System Science Mark Maslin.
Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson Slam Climate Predictions

Crossing (or not) the 1.5 and 2.0C Thresholds
The bottom line is that uncertainty in global temperature projections to 2050 is skewed towards lower values, as uncertainty in near term scenarios of emissions is decreasing.
Claim: More Work Required to Study “Settled” Climate Science
Last Halloween, Naomi Oreskes unsettled the climate community by suggesting the work of WG1 scientists is done, and that they should move on to other fields. Climate scientist have now…
Arctic Ocean Started Getting Warmer Decades Earlier Than We Thought – Study
“Climate simulations generally do not reproduce this kind of warming in the Arctic Ocean, meaning there’s an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms driving Atlantification,” said Tommaso. “We rely on these…
Why Aren’t Journalists and Politicians More Sceptical About the ‘Net Zero’ Policy, Given that it’s Based on the Outputs of Unreliable Models?
mainstream media, politicians, activists, state-sponsored scientists and subsidy-hungry industrialists, we are embarking on net zero with little idea, or seemingly care, of the disastrous effect it will have on human…
Climate tipping might be predicted using algebraic topology
Do we risk the same today from anthropogenic climate change? Frankly, climate models cannot answer that question yet.
The Old Farmer’s Almanac Seasonal Forecasts
By Andy May The Old Farmer’s Almanac has been making yearly long-term weather forecasts for 230 years. We pay attention to them because they are normally 80% accurate. They did…
