Tisdale on ENSO step changes in RSS global temperature data
RSS MSU TLT Anomalies February 2011 Update and A Look At Version 3.3 FEBRUARY 2011 UPDATE RSS TLT anomalies continue to drop in response to the 2010/2011 La Niña. RSS…
The Recent Drop In The Sea Surface Temperatures Of U.S. Coastal Waters
by Bob Tisdale This post illustrates the recent drop in the SST anomalies of the U.S. coastal waters. We’ll represent this subset with the coordinates of 20N-50N, 130W-65W. I’ve used…
NASA: La Niña has remained strong
From NASA JPL in Pasadena: New NASA satellite data indicate the current La Niña event in the eastern Pacific has remained strong during November and December 2010. A new Ocean…
Can Most Of The Rise In The Satellite-Era Surface Temperatures Be Explained Without Anthropogenic Greenhouse Gases?
Guest post by Bob Tisdale In this post, I divide the globe (60S-60N) into two subsets and remove the linear effects of ENSO and volcanic eruptions from GISS Land-Ocean Temperature…
Hurricanes and global warming – still no connection
Dr. Roger Pielke Jr. sends word via email of a review of his new paper on ClimateWire, plus notes that Joe Romm “blows a gasket” about it. That’s clear evidence…
Global Sea Surface Temperature continues to drop
SST UPDATE FROM AMSR-E By Dr. Roy Spencer, PhD The following plot shows global average sea surface temperatures from the AMSR-E instrument over the lifetime of the Aqua satellite, through…
Tisdale K.O.e's GISS's latest "warmest-year nonsense"
Bob Tisdale writes: I’ve been holding off telling you about my most recent post in hopes that GISS would continue with their warmest-year nonsense. And they did. Using correlation maps, animations,…

Does Hadley Centre Sea Surface Temperature Data (HADSST2) Underestimate Recent Warming?
Guest post by Bob Tisdale In advance of the UN negotiations next week in Cancun, the press and blogs today have included numerous elaborations on the UK Met Office press…
Missing the big picture on CO2
From the University of Exeter, this press release below and not a peep in it about the El Niño earlier this year that would have helped to degassify CO2 from…
Integrating ENSO: Multidecadal Changes In Sea Surface Temperature
Guest post by Bob Tisdale Longer Title: Do Multidecadal Changes In The Strength And Frequency Of El Niño and La Niña Events Cause Global Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies To Rise…
Comparing CO2 in warm and cold periods in geologic history
I recall a conversation I had with Dr. Bob Carter at a restaurant in Townsville, QLD after our public presentations there in June 2010 where he lamented the fact that…
Study says SST convection threshold rising
From the University of Hawaii at Manoa, more of the “more heat = more hurricanes” meme. Threshold sea surface temperature for hurricanes and tropical thunderstorms is rising IMAGE: The average…
Global air and sea temperatures starting to drop rapidly
Dr. Roy Spencer has an essay below on sea surface temperatures starting to bottom out, but in addition to that, the UAH daily lower troposphere plot shows a sharp drop…
Typhoon Megi and SST anomaly in East Asia
Guest Post by Nonoy Oplas, Typhoon MEGI (local name “Juan”) has crossed the Philippines’ landmass but still on the western side of the country’s area of responsibility as I write…
The La Niña has strengthened, now near 2008 levels
Update: it appears that the September values of the Tahiti-Darwin SOI (+25) and Klaus Wolter Multivariate ENSO Index (MEI) are at historical levels when compared to previous Septembers, with the…
A MUST READ: European climate, Alpine glaciers and Arctic ice in relation to North Atlantic SST record
In my opinion, this essay is a must read because it clearly illustrates correlation between ocean cycles to; Arctic ice loss and gain, glacier advance and retreat, and land surface…
Igor cool ocean
As I’ve written before, hurricanes are natural heat engines. They transport surface heat to the upper atmosphere for dissipation to space. They do a splendid job of cooling the ocean…
Watch recent hurricanes cool the Atlantic
The Atlantic has been running warm lately, but that’s because there’s been little happening with Nature’s natural heat transporters. WUWT commenter SteveM pointed out something interesting in the latest SST…
