What is there in this not to understand? Best wishes, Tom What is not understood is how such allegedly rigorous and accurage GCM applications (sorry, GCM apps are really weather apps being bastardized to make fake predictions about climate out in the fuzzy fuzzy future), is why the AGW cult can be ...

smoking gun of fraud

ICECAP blog has a nice story documenting how 2/3 of ground stations, mostly rurally located, were kicked out or removed from the system in 1990, causing urban heat islands to impose a false warming signal.

Please also explain how to get the turbulence models to work with grid squares 125 mi on a side and why the grid square size does nor vary with terrain (i.e. mountains), sea state, weather features (hurricanes), vegetation growth, ice quantity and quality, etc. etc. etc. ==== And while you are at i...

Ok, go away and find out how the climate scientists validate their turbulence models used for the Navier-Stokes solvers of their fabulous "Global Ci...

Copper bus bar is rated at 4 A/ sq mm. Which is 400 A/sq cm. Of course if you are willing to let the bus bar run very hot you might get up to 10X that. So 4,000 A/sq cm might be around the ultimate current. In round numbers - on the order of 10,000 A/sq cm. Just as a point of reference. Ya. Either ...

Sorry - But in that case you are arguing that CO2 forcing is likely to be stronger than they predict, since an unmodelled cooling forcing => other forcings must lead to more warming for the same effect? Or if you agree with me that the climate models are physical, and not fitted at all to the globa...

I'm not up to date on the conductivity of CNTs. Do you have some links? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_nanotube#Electrical "Because of the symmetry and unique electronic structure of graphene, the structure of a nanotube strongly affects its electrical properties. For a given (n,m) nanotube, i...

intlibber - This is one of the (many) arguments for future global cooling. This is the opposite argument to Simon's. Simon thinks that sunspot minimum => lower temperatures due to lower solar forcing. You think that sunspot minimum => higher temperatures due to cloud changes. No, you misread me. My...

It is all a red herring. We have two socialist parties in America. The moral socialist party and the economic socialist party. In the theory of Oswald Spengler , Socialism will be the final ethical ideal of the West, much as Stoicism was for Mediterranean Antiquity. The current issue in the US is n...

We are just starting to learn how to use graphene. That would eliminate the obvous problems around conventional conductors. I am expecting this tech to be advanced very rapidly. It starts by been stronger that diamond. The Carbon-Carbon bond is 12 eV. Let us assume for the sake of argument that the...

Re clouds what is needed is the average effect, The trouble is: the average effect is determined by the previous state. Cumulus clouds or cirrus? Well it depends. If the previous states are drifting from reality future states will be further in error. The big argument now is: is the water vapor amp...
