Climate Scientists Versus Climate Data

Scathing.

#7  Seeking cure for ignorance overstates things. I can point you to several scientists who, though obligated to release their data 2 years after publication of the results, are convinced that there is just a little more refining of the analysis they need to do first. They're probably right--the experiment is gearing up to redo the calibration, and that may slightly effect the list of directions and energies we publish.

#6  Can't they just make up new data, or re-adjust the old data?

Do any of these vaunted 'models' fit the Medieval Warming Period or the Little Ice Age? Any historical data?

How about the Pinatubo eruption? When they factored in the volcanic dust, did their models show cooling?

How much cleaner is the air of today compared to 1970? Because the reduced particulates should reflect less sunlight, adding to earth's temperatures.

#5  â€œfrantically copying U.S. Climate data, fearing it might vanish under Trump"

Frantically copy/pasting? It's not like they are copying hardcopies are they?

#4  For research to be valid, the findings have to have "replicability" in that the data, analysis and findings must be so clearly presented that other researchers can take the same data and arrive at the same results...a long winded way of saying that I as a doctoral candidate cannot believe the findings were accepted without supporting research arriving at the same conclusions.

The fact that they sprang on a research project that was essentially a statistical outlier compared to other research is a significant red flag that the entire climate change circus is a fraud and a scam lining someone's pockets at the expense of jobs and economic growth.

#3  They are scientists in the same sense the "scientists" were that touted Aryan supremacy for the Nazis.

#2  They are not, despite what they call themselves, "scientists". A true scientist will archive his/her data set and make it available without reservations to other scientists for true study.

#1  Exactly why trump has to slash and burn climate science. Politicised and compromised
