    Climate Change Denial

    Wrong. You are still confused by the distortion caused by the various parameters of the graphs, You can see the corresponding spikes. Go to his blog site and tell him you think he used a different data set. Spencer may or may not answer you, but someone else will. By the way, here is one of...

    Below the 30-year average, correct. But during the past 15 years, there has been very little, if any decline of the Arctic sea ice. Have a look: https://realclimatescience.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/MASIEArcticSeaIceExtent_shadow.png

    Climate Change Denial

    You are still confused about different abscissa and ordinate ranges. And you still don't have a clue how the years chosen for the mean affects the anomaly. Spencer did use the sea surface temperature data set as he claimed. You just don't like how he parameterized the data with the short...

    So, how much of an effect has that heat energy had on global sea ice. Well, let's have a look: https://i2.wp.com/www.climate4you.com/images/NSIDC%20GlobalArcticAntarctic%20SeaIceArea.gif?ssl=1 It looks like the global sea ice extent has gone from 23,000,000 km^2 in 1979 down to 22,000,000 km^2...

    Piers Corbyn thinks the human-caused global warming hysteria is driven by multi-national corporations, because they want to deindustrialize the West and install all of the polluting factories in India and China where there are no environmental restrictions. That will enhance profits. Corbyn is a...

    I remember last July, a bunch of silly global warming zealots were screaming "it's melting, it's melting, we will have an ice free summer!" Yes. July 2020 melted at a fast rate. The NSIDC 2020 melt season report explained why. There was a dominant high pressure system located over eastern...

    That isn't my homework to do. I know that UAH is a bona fide atmospheric research facility. NASA thinks it is. NOAA thinks it is. DOE thinks it is. Just because a lightweight like doesn't think so is no concern of mine. Oh, my goodness. How terrible! Pier Corbyn needs to be thrown in jail for...

    Great opportunity to ask Spencer that. I believe an atmospheric research scientist has much greater access to real-time data than the general public does. By the way, you misspelled definitely. I normally don't give a crap about such things, but since you made a big-ass deal about...

    Look closely. 2016 is the highest peak. 2020 is the 2nd highest peak. The big temperature drop is occurring in 2021. I'm 64. I assume you are quite a bit younger than me. Your eyes should be better than mine!

    Again, yet another 0.6C temperature rise between 1980 and 2016. See the graph you posted? 1980 0.4C / 2016 1.0C. That is a 0.6C rise. Now again, what goofy, dumb ass point are you trying to make? I told you to take it up with Dr. Spencer and UAH. But you are too weak-kneed to do that.

    2019 did NOT beat 2012. The total mass balance in 2012 was around -460 Gt. In 2019, -320 Gt. In 2020, the TMB was -150 Gt. TMB also factors in calving - glacial ice flowing in the Atlantic Ocean. See page 4...

    Another thing. your favored 5 graphs all end before 2020. Spencer's goes into 2021, showing the recent cooling. Apparently, that is the part that pisses you off.

    This is from the Polar Portal 2020 Season Report - "At the end of the season (31 August 2020), the surface mass balance’s net result was 349 Gt. This is very close to the 1981- 2020 average, which is 341 Gt. As a point of reference, the lowest calculated SMB was just 38 Gt in 2012." Yes, the...

    Because I know Spencer didn't falsify the sea surface temperature data set. If you believe he did, go on his web page and try to expose him for the fraud you think he is and get him fired from UAH. But you won't do that because a bunch of scientists will blow you out of the water if you tried...

    If you can show Dr. Spencer used a different data set from the one he claimed he used, he would be fired from UAH. Every atmospheric scientist in America and the world would feast on Spencer if he did that. Spencer gets his funding from NASA, NOAA, and DOE. They would all withhold funds from UAH...

    I saw a great climate change debate between Dr. Gerald North of Texas A&M University and Dr. Richard Lindzen of MIT back in 2010. I got my schooling in forcing and feedback by attending that debate. The doubling of CO2 in the atmosphere leads to a temperature increase of 1 deg. C. That is the...

    Climate Change Denial

    You still don't understand that the global mean temperature anomaly is based on the years used to base the average. If you use a different set of years from another set, this will produce different numbers for the anomaly. This is what I've been trying to get through to you, and you can't grasp...

    That doesn't damn Dr. Spencer at all. He called in to Rush Limbaugh's show a few times to give climate updates. The mainstream news media will not interview climate realists like Roy Spencer, John Christy, Judith Curry, and Richard Lindzen. But Rush did. The news media has an alarmist narrative...

    Is that red line you drew based on the 1979-1983 average Spencer used to determine the temperature anomaly? Of course not! If Spencer is falsifying data, he would be expelled from UAH, and NASA would no longer fund his research. If you think he is falsifying data, go to his web site and tell...

    Spencer is not wrongly claiming anything. Only in your highly overactive imagination is he wrongly claiming something. On his web site, he explains the parameters he used.

    Again, I have to tell you. The data sets are based on different averages to determine the temperature anomalies. The Spencer graph defines the average from 1979-1983. The other graph isn't defined. The short time frame Spencer used was due to the fact the model runs began in 1979. He wanted to...

    Good gawd you're dense. What you fail to grasp is that the ERSSTv5 data set is being displayed with different time periods and a different temperature range. Plus, the temperature anomaly in the left graph is based on the 1979-1983 average. The temperature anomaly in the right graph is not...

    Climate Change Denial

    Wrong! CO2 does not drive the climate. It follows the climate. Perhaps you don't have a clue that the ocean contains 60 X the CO2 the atmosphere does. When the oceans warm, it releases CO2 into the atmosphere. When the oceans cools, it absorbs CO2 back into the oceans. Think of a coke can you...

    I notice how you tend to go in a direction completely unrelated to the topic. You do that because you don't have a sound logical argument. Dr. Spencer and Dr. Christy were great atmospheric scientists in 1991, and they still are today. If they weren't, NOAA would no longer use their data and...

    The fundamental reason why the sea level has risen during the past 12,000 years is because we've come out of the most recent glaciation or ice age as some call it. The interglacial periods are warmer than the glacial ones. That is why sea level rises during the interglacial. The current Holocene...
