Well, this should be interesting, if possibly useless: But a spokesperson said information about the investigation into the hack at UEA’s Climatic Research Unit (CRU) would be made public very soon. Scientists will be scrutinising the choice of chair and the terms of reference. One senior climate scientist told me that the chair would have […]

If peer review was so great with AGW then the mistake Michael Mann made in his chronology, noted my Steve McIntyre, would have been corrected. It has not been, according to WUWT and the review of Mann’s latest AGW report.  What is really mind boggling is that the CRU emails clearly show the alarmists agreed […]

I am beginning to feel confident that what will come out of Climategate is those who tried to control the scientific debate will be hauled up to explain themselves and be run out of town, their credibility ruined, while skeptic and alarmists will sit down and work together to unravel the complex nature of this […]

It seems the powers that be in the UK wanted CRU to produce a rebuttal by data – except their code and data is messed up they could not make the call to arms: CRU asked to prepare data for a pre-emptive release in past couple of days but trouble reconciling issues between data bases […]

Smoking Gun Update Below The real scientific process is to present a hypotheses (along with experimental data and algorithms and codes) to the community (doesn’t have to be hand picked by a science journal) for scrutiny and debate. The community will give the hypothesis a determination if it is feasible (but not fact, that takes […]

The global warming crowd has been caught again deleting contradictory temperature data that would call into question the entire premise of the global warming hypothesis (and I am being kind still calling it a hypothesis as to a failed theory). Steve McIntyre has discovered the missing data which shows current temperatures are not any different […]

As I suspected when this story broke, the minor problem for the AGW alarmists was dealing with the Roman and Medieval Warm Periods. The big headache was the warm period prior to 1960, which we can see in the CRU data was equal to or higher than today. This warm period in the first half […]

The reason I ask where does global warming come from is not because I would be surprised or concerned to find the planet is still warming up from the Little Ice Age (which ended around 1850), but because if you look at the raw data there is no warming. Andrew Bolt in Australia has a […]

Like many I am spending way too much time wandering through the CRU data dump. But I did run across a zip file containing lots of real data and other interesting things from I assume Michael Mann.  Is is the file “mbh98-osborn.zip“.  Some of the ‘notes’ on figures are very intriguing and something I expect […]

Well, in their desperate need to backpedal from the CRU Climategate, CRU is all of sudden become quite skeptical of global warming!  First let me remind folks that the Little Ice Age ‘just ended’ (in geologic time) less than 200 years ago. It is no surprise the Earth has been warming since then. The last major […]
