Quote of the week – Hansen concedes the age of flatness
Dr. James Hansen and Reto Ruedy of NASA GISS have written a paper (non peer reviewed) with a remarkable admission in it. It is titled Global Temperature Update Through 2012. Here…
Hansen and Karl to put on a "worse than we thought" event
From a press release, apparently the writer has no clue that the NASA GISS data is a derivative of the NOAA data, and thus the claim of “NASA and NOAA…
A problem: nearly one third of CO2 emissions occured since 1998, and it hasn't warmed
Guest post by Tom Fuller The physics behind the theory of global warming are solid. CO2 is a greenhouse gas, we’re emitting industrial levels of it, with China now in…
How GISS creates long term Antarctic warming
From Tallblokes Talkshop, note what happens before 1958. HOW GISS MANUFACTURES WARMING (LOTS OF IT) IN THE ANTARCTIC by Roger Andrews The close match between GISS and me after 1955…
The Cyber Bonfire of GISS's Vanities
I decided to make this a sticky top post for a day or two – it needs wide circulation. New posts will appear below this one. – Anthony Playing email…
GISS responds to my complaint
As predicted, Gavin Schmidt did not respond, but I did get a nice letter from Dr. Reto Ruedy after Gavin forwarded the complaint. To his credit, Dr. Ruedy has now…
Climate FAIL: GISS is presenting 2012 US temperature as 'off the chart', while preventing older data from being archived
UPDATE: 8/22/12 9AM The problem has been solved, GISS responded to my complaint -Anthony Like the erroneous graph at California Governor Jerry Brown’s climate denier slam site, here’s another one…

Little Ice Age Thermometers- Historic variations in temperatures Part 3 -BEST confirms extended period of warming.
Guest post by Tony Brown This short paper is a preliminary examination of BEST data to 1753, as compared to the Central England Temperature Record (CET) to 1660 (instrumental record)…
A quick look at temperature anomaly distributions
R code to look at changing temp distributions – follow up to Hansen/Sato/Ruedy Story submitted by commenter Nullius in Verba There has been a lot of commentary recently on the…
Editorial: 'Hansen is simply wrong' and 'his hypothesis is a complete and abject failure'
UPDATE: 9:55 AM PDT 8/8/12 A graph of Palmer Drought Severity Index -vs- GISTEMP data has been added from Dr. Michaels. Looks like another “GISS miss”. There’s a lot of…
NASA's James Hansen's big cherry pick
From NASA: Research Links Extreme Summer Heat Events to Global Warming A new statistical analysis by NASA scientists has found that Earth’s land areas have become much more likely to…
Is global warming just another 'End-of-the-World' delusion?
UPDATE: less than 24 hours after posting this, we already have an end of the world prediction naming global warming, see below. New end of the world book treats climate…
New paper blames about half of global warming on weather station data homogenization
From the told ya so department, comes this recently presented paper at the European Geosciences Union meeting. Authors Steirou and Koutsoyiannis, after taking homogenization errors into account find global warming…
Gavin on the ropes over heat wave explanation
Tom Nelson writes: If CO2 is really such an all-powerful warming factor, and if the science is so settled, why does warmist Gavin Schmidt have so much trouble explaining why…
James Hansen's climate forecast of 1988: a whopping 150% wrong
From their Die kalte Sonne website, Professor Fritz Vahrenholt and Dr. Sebastian Lüning put up this guest Post by Prof. Jan-Erik Solheim (Oslo) on Hansen’s 1988 forecast, and show that…
Gavin Schmidt talk at URI
WUWT reader Gary writes in with this: Gavin Schmidt gave a lecture at my University yesterday and I thought you might like to see it. He starts at 21 minutes…
Shocker: The Hansen/GISS team paper that says: "we argue that rapid warming in recent decades has been driven mainly by non-CO2 greenhouse gases"
Note: This will be a top post for a day or two, new stories will appear below this one – please scroll down. ============================================================ No, this isn’t a joke, it…
Gavin Schmidt issues corrections to the RealClimate Presentation of Modeled Global Ocean Heat Content
Guest post by Bob Tisdale For years, Tamino (aka Grant Foster) has complained about the placement of the GISS model projection at the start of the ARGO-era OHC data. Well,…
