Santer has been searching for proof of the human fingerprint for close to three decades. He has a lot time invested in finding it, from 1996: The observed spatial patterns…

entitling such a paper “Exceptional stratospheric contribution to human fingerprints on atmospheric temperature” is essentially a non sequitur on the issue of global warming.

Thermospheric cooling, CO2 and models are proved again, bad for satellites. Thermospheric warming, it's that damn sun and its storms, bad for satellites.

There was a time when it was possible to point out an error by way of a rebuttal published as a note in a scientific journal – even in the journal Nature,

Guest Post by Willis Eschenbach Anthony recently highlighted a couple of new papers claiming to explain the current plateau in global warming. This time, it’s volcanoes, but the claim this time is that it’s not the big...

Despite recent claims by Justin Gillis in this NYT piece that the plateau in surface temperatures is misunderstood by scientists… …given how much is riding on the scientific forecast, the practitioners of climate...

This is pretty ugly. In 2007 the NRC was setup to review the state of climate science. The usual players were involved. Today we have two separate examples of inappropriate behavior designed to squash any scientific dissent....

Today is a day I go not one thing done for myself due to the Berkely Earth Surface Temperature release sucking all the oxygen out of the climate debate with their pre-peer release shenanigans...

In the case of the apparently scandalous leaked e-mails from the Climatic Research Unit in England, it’s all a matter of getting the context right.  That’s what Professor Michael E Mann, the fabricator of the...

The public posting on a web site of private e-mails and documents from the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, England is going to cause an uproar.  Just a quick look at a few of…
