Madhav Khandekar

Category: climate science

Unless I haven't been paying attention, the mighty Madhav Khandekar's "Questioning the Global Warming Science: An Annotated bibliography of recent peer-reviewed papers" has been met with total indifference. Until now... Its supposed (I think) to be a sort of Peiser-done-properly....

Hurricanes and AIT, again

Category: climate communication

Prompted by the proofs of my review of AIT for Met Apps (oh, the fame!) I looked at the site again and found The Science. What they list there is very thin and with no useful links. I would have...

TGGWS, again

Category: climate communication

Just when you thought the Great Global Warming Swindle rubbish had died down, Bob Ward has to go and stir things up again. So it gets into the Grauniad and the Scotsman too. Predictably enough, the scientists talk about the...

Betting on Global Warming

Category: climate science

While I still have a possible bet in the pipeline, Brian Schmidt now has a real bet lined up for a total of $6-$9k. Personally I think that 0.15 oC/decade is more likely than not, but that less is a...

Free copies of TGGWS?

Category: climate communication

So says The Vancouver Sun (thanks to DR). In principle it would be a good idea: show the two together, note where they disagree, and go off to find what the actual data says. Which would rapidly show up how...

Framing Science

Category:

Having been away for the past two weeks i've missed most of the exciting "Framing Science" stuff. I feel most sympathetic to the PZ view... In that addressing your message to your audience seems fairly obvious. But I rather like...

Reith Lecture woes

Category: climate communication

I've just listened to that Jeffrey Sachs, the international economist, giving the 2007 Reith Lecture called "Bursting At The Seams". I was only half listening but woke up when he said: Now like the ozone crisis, public awareness has been...

EGU friday

Category: climate science

Thin day today, and anyway my plane leaves at half five. Some friends are off to see Mozarts grave but I opt for a sit in the cafe in front of th Dom. The pic follows in the tradiation...

EGU: thursday

Category: climate science

Rowan Sutton: on the amplification of warming over land. That the land warms more than the oceans is well know; but as RS points out the *why* is somewhat less well known. I would have said, unthinkingly, its because of...

EGU: wednesday

Category: climate communication

A quiet day today (just as well after dinner and drinks last night with reprobate Jeff Ridley and somewhat more respectable John Turner). A bit of ice core stuff in the morning - using d-c-13 to understand glacial methane...

Lack of lack of ocean warming

Category: climate science

RP Sr has been pushing his favourite climate change metric - ocean temperatures - and hyping one paper - Lyman et al, that appeared to show a cooling in that metric. It seemed to me rather imprudent to do this...

EGU

Category: climate science

Its EGU time again. Monday was a bit of a blur (technically I got to my hotel on monday, about half past midnight. Travelling Air Austria is a lot more pleasant than RyanAir, though). Tuesday was better, partly because I...

I'm back from hols. Sorry for the interruption in service. Can I remind people that if you want to post attacks on other bloggers, the place to do it is their blog or yours not here? I've been a bit...

10Be evidence for the Matuyama–Brunhes geomagnetic reversal in the EPICA Dome C ice core

Category: climate science

10Be evidence for the Matuyama-Brunhes geomagnetic reversal in the EPICA Dome C ice core slipped by me when it was published last year (Nature 444, 82-84 (2 November 2006)). If they are correct, then its nice for the ice core...

Hot times in the Solar System

Category: climate science

"The warming of other solar bodies has been seized upon by climate sceptics; but oh how wrong they are, says Oliver Morton". But then he is writing in that dodgy rag Nature, so what does he know? "If the shooting...
