11th Mar 2010 > Sealevelgate
Imagine this. In its latest report, the IPCC has predicted up to 3 meters of sea level rise by the end of this century. But ?climate sceptics? websites were quick to reveal a few problems (or ?tricks?, as they called it).
First, although the temperature scenarios of IPCC project a maximum warming of 6.4 ºC (Table [...]
9th Mar 2010 > More on sun-climate relations
Four new papers discuss the relatiosnhip between solar activity and climate: one by Judith Lean (2010) in WIREs Climate Change, a GRL paper by Calogovic et al. (2010), Kulmala et al. (2010), and an on-line preprint by Feulner and Rahmstorf (2010). They all look at different aspects of how changes in solar activity may influence [...]

Who says that the climate debate is not evolving? According to the daily newspaper the Guardian, a new application (‘app‘) has been written for iPhones that provides a list of climate dissidents’ arguments, and counter arguments based on more legitimate scientific substance.

15th Feb 2010 > Daily Mangle
Yesterday, the Daily Mail of the UK published a predictably inaccurate article entitled “Climategate U-turn as scientist at centre of row admits: There has been no global warming since 1995″.
The title itself is a distortion of what Jones actually said in an interview with the BBC. What Jones actually said is that, while the globe [...]
