New paper finds climate models are getting worse rather than better Via the Hockey Schtick: A paper published today in Geophysical Research Letters finds that the latest climate models are…
Another amplification mechanism discovered by which the Sun affects Earth's climate
From The Hockey Schtick A paper published Tuesday in the Journal of Climate finds tiny variations in solar activity over 11-year solar cycles have greatly amplified effects upon climate via…
Russian Scientists say period of global cooling ahead due to changes in the sun
From Radio Voice of Russia: Russia’s Pulkovo Observatory: “we could be in for a cooling period that lasts 200-250 years” Scientists at Russia’s famous Pulkovo Observatory are convinced that the…
Who would have guessed it? Sunlit snow key to Arctic ozone depletion
I like this study from the NSF, because they did hands-on empirical measurements and experiments to make the determination – Anthony Sunlit Snow Triggers Atmospheric Cleaning, Ozone Depletion in the…
English Winters Back To Normal–Julia Blames Global Warming!
By Paul Homewood According to the Sun, Britain’s winters are getting colder because of melting Arctic ice, the Government’s forecaster said yesterday. Met Office chief scientist Julia Slingo said climate…
Global Warming To Bring Colder/Warmer Winters
By Paul Homewood It seems that every time we get some snow, another “scientist” is wheeled out to explain that, no matter how cold it gets, it is all down…
New study shows: climate models still struggle with medium- term climate forecasts
How cold will a winter be in two years? How well are the most important climate models able to predict the weather conditions for the coming year or even the…

Our energy and environment deserve better – in South Africa and Qatar Guest post by Dr. Kelvin Kemm A few weeks ago, perhaps as a prologue to the “global warming…
Bipolar disorder – as in the Arctic, the Antarctic sea ice extent is affected by wind, unless of course it's 'climate change'
From the “no matter what happens it is climate change” department. So, according to this, when the Arctic loses ice it is due to climate change ‘global warming’ when the…
It's a planetary emergency!

Claim: Trigger for Earth's last big freeze identified
From the University of Massachusetts at Amherst AMHERST, Mass. – For more than 30 years, climate scientists have debated whether flood waters from melting of the enormous Laurentide Ice Sheet,…
Remember the panic over methane seeping out of the Arctic seabed in 2009? Never mind.
Remember this BBC story? Turns out it is another one for the Climate FAIL file. All sorts of wailing came from that by climate alarmists. The New Scientist claimed there…
Sea Ice News Volume 3 number 13 – 2012 Arctic sea ice minimum reached, it's all gain from here
I’ve been watching the JAXA sea ice data on the WUWT sea ice page intently for the last few days. Click to enlarge. I was ready to call the minimum…
Sea Ice News Volume 3 number 12 – has Arctic sea ice started to turn the corner?
Nothing definitive, but interesting. The area plot above is from NANSEN. The extent plot also shows a turn:
Sea Ice News – Volume 3 Number 11, part 2 – other sources show no record low Arctic ice extent
Earlier today in part1, I posted about the new record low claimed by NSIDC: Sea Ice News – Volume 3 Number 11, part 1 – new Arctic satellite extent record.…
Sea Ice News – Volume 3 Number 10 – ARCUS August Sea Ice Outlook posted, plus worries over Arctic storm breaking up sea ice
In the latest ARCUS Sea Ice Outlook, WUWT, Stroeve (NSIDC), and Meier (NSIDC) agree at 4.5 million square km. Whether those values turn out to be high due to the…
Climate change – off in the ozone
From the Harvard University news service and the what are they smoking department, comes this suggestion that apparently it never was ozone damaging CFC refrigerants at all, it was those…
