De staat van het klimaat

The blogosphere, a small poll Who read my book or is reading it? Who frequently (at least once a week) reads RealClimate.org? Who frequently reads Climate Audit? Who frequently reads WUWT?

Jones to Hughes in 2005 “We have 25 or so years invested in the work. Why should I make the data available to you, when your aim is to try and find something wrong with it?”

Judith Curry While free market fundamentalism and “big oil” may have been a major source of skepticism in the past, the current dominant group of skeptics, enabled by the blogosphere, seeks accountability. Many of these skeptics have professional backgrounds and extensive experience with the practical application of science and regulation, without any particular political motivations and certainly without funding from “big oil.” Failing to recognize this new breed of climate skeptics, and dismissing them as politically motivated deniers or merchants of doubt, led to the events that were revealed by the CRU s.

1934 as warm as 1998 or even warmer?

Most of the records in the 30-ies

Is this unique for the US?

According to IPCC there is warming on all continents

Warming in the arctic?, polyakov 2003

Polyakov 2003 “Two distinct warming periods from 1920 to 1945, and from 1975 to the present, are clearly evident…compared with the global and hemispheric temperature rise, the high-latitude temperature increase was stronger in the late 1930s to the early 1940s than in recent decades.”

Climategate “I can’t see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report. Kevin and I will keep them out somehow – even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is !” Phil Jones to Michael Mann (2004)

Surface minus Satellite, klotzbach 2009

Is the warming caused by CO2?

Forcings in AR4

Swanson and Tsonis

The standard explanation for the post 1970s warming is that the radiative effect of greenhouse gases overcame shortwave reflection effects due to aerosols. However, [our result] suggests an alternative hypothesis, namely that the climate shifted after the 1970s event to a different state of a warmer climate, which may be superimposed on an anthropogenic warming trend.

Hot spot in the tropics

Hot spot in the tropics, Douglass 2007/2008

Christy in press release We have good reason, therefore, to believe that current climate models greatly overestimate the effects of greenhouse gases. Satellite observations suggest that GH models ignore negative feedbacks, produced by clouds and by water vapor, that diminish the warming effects of carbon dioxide.

Hot spot in the tropics, Santer 2008

Hot spot in the tropics, McKitrick 2010

McKitrick 2010 We find that the model trends are 2x larger than observations in the lower troposphere and 4x larger than in the mid-troposphere, and the trend differences at both layers are statistically significant (p<1%), suggestive of an inconsistency between models and observations.

Are the model predictions good? Michaels testimony 2009
