New evidence that polar bears survived 1,600 years of ice-free summers in the early Holocene
From Polar Bear Science Susan Crockford New evidence indicates that Arctic areas with the thickest ice today probably melted out every year during the summer for about 1,600 years during the…
The Last 12,000 Years Show a More Complex Climate History Than Previously Thought
Inconsistencies between Holocene climate reconstructions and numerical model simulations question the robustness of climate models and proxy temperature records.
New Study: Arctic Was Much Warmer 6000 Years Ago… 90% Of Glaciers, Ice Caps Smaller Than Present Or Absent!
Climate alarmists hate this inconvenient fact: hundreds of temperature reconstructions show that the northern hemisphere was much warmer over much of the past 10,000 years (Holocene) than it is today.
Climate Change in the Early Holocene
The team believes the creation of the cemetery reveals a social response to the stresses caused by regional resource depression.
More Evidence: Glaciers Existing Today Were Absent For Nearly All Of The Last 10,000 Years
So, once again, there is no evidence to support the alarmist claims that modern glacier extents are unprecedented or even unusual relative to the last 10,000 years – including the…

A global context for Man-made Climate Concerns
Therefore whatever CO2 reductions and sacrifices of wellbeing are made in the Western World will be overtaken and soon exceeded by them. It should be realised that climate change policies…
“Where’s the sea ice?” Right where it’s been for most of the Holocene.
Guest “geological perspective” by David Middleton This is sort of a sequel yesterday’s post: Where’s the sea ice? 3 reasons the Arctic freeze is unseasonably late and why it matters.…

Another Dis-alarming Analysis of Arctic Sea Ice
Guest post by David Middleton Anthony recently posted an excellent Arctic sea ice analysis by Ron Clutz. In a similar vein, I decided to look at Arctic sea ice from…
The truth about 'We have to get rid of the medieval warm period'
In the thread Intelligence and the hockey stick commenter “Robert” challenged a well known quote about the MWP from 2006 by Dr. David Deming in his statement before the Senate EPW…
New paper shows Medieval Warm Period was global in scope
Andrew Revkin writes: Michael Mann can’t be happy about this work. Here’s a chat with two authors of an important new Science paper examining 10,000 years of layered fossil plankton…
Global Warming = Climate Change

Those who don't learn from Yamal, are condemned to repeat it – Marcott’s YAD061
You’d think academics in the upside down Mann climate proxy world would pay attention, and not repeat the same mistakes of the past. Apparently not. WUWT readers surely recall the…
Evidence for a Global Medieval Warm Period

Marcott issues a FAQ on their paper
This is from Real Climate, who played the “he who must not be named” game again in not pointing out criticisms. Gavin dissapoints. UPDATE: McIntyre responded earlier today with The…
Where's the hockey stick? The 'Marcott 9' show no warming past 1950
More on the Marcott et al “hockey stick”. All of the ‘Marcott 9’ had altered dates. Guest post by John Kehr While it took me a while to get the…
Tick, tick, tick – how long will the new Marcott et al hockey stick survive?
Steve McIntyre writes of the curious uptick in the 20th century, which doesn’t seem to be rooted in reality, or to have been in Marcott’s PhD thesis: While one expects…
Another Hockey Stick?
Guest post by S. Fred Singer Green forces, eager to promote their theories of global warming, appear to be practicing intellectual recycling. Is this the return of the notorious hockeystick…
Marcott's proxies – 10% fail their own criteria for inclusion
Note: Steve McIntyre is also quite baffled by the Marcott et al paper, finding it currently unreproducible given the current information available. I’ve added some comments from him at the…
