IT is my prediction that in not so many years time weather station data will be collected more for fun, a sense of history and for site-specific information, than for serious regional and global climate statistics. In the future it will be data … [Read more...] about Temperature Data from Satellites: Inconvenient but Accurate

The sophisticated weather-watcher, of course, waits for some official global temperature data to be published before concluding very much. Al … [Read more...] about Correcting Global Cooling (Part 2)
Correcting Ocean Cooling: NASAChanges Data to Fit the Models Adjusts Data from Buoys
NASA scientist, Josh Willis, was so concerned that his data, showing ocean cooling, did not fit the official consensus on climate change that he searched for a solution. Eventually he “applied a correction” so the historical ocean temperature record … [Read more...] about Correcting Ocean Cooling: NASAChanges Data to Fit the Models Adjusts Data from Buoys
