Here's a bit more info: Trenberth can't account for the lack of warming
If you had clear evidence you would have played it first and avoided the blather about thermometers.
No, I've posted clear evidence probably over a thousand times on this website, but this was the first time I saw someone so clearly uninformed about thermometry, accuracy, precision, and their application. Try to find evidence that the satellites measuring the radiative imbalance are in error. The satellites have been corroborated by ground based instruments. In scientific terms, we call that a robust finding.
wow, DB, you've just shown an impressive amount of misunderstanding. And I am not easily impressed. Congrats. The way you twist contexts, you should be a politician or a supermarket tabloid reporter. lolA bit more about yer bit more.
(A subsequent study by Balmaseda, Trenberth, and Källén (2013) determined that over the past decade, approximately 30% of ocean warming has occurred in the deeper layers, below 700 meters. This conclusion goes a long way to resolving the 'missing heat' discrepancy. There is still some discrepancy remaining, which could be due to errors in the satellite measurements, the ocean heat content measurements, or both. But the discrepancy is now significantly smaller, and will be addressed in further detail in a follow-up paper by these scientists.)
Of course he's breaking thermodynamic law stuff explaining the positioning of the heat and he got no measurements, of course they and thermodynamics are unnecessary when talking about darkheat, invisable cousin to darkmatter and darkenergy.
And none of them will discuss the real mechanism cuz well it's real.
Sinking heat below seven hundred meters eh.
AND IF THAT ISN'T STUPID ENOUGH
Summary
So to summarise, Trenberth's email says this:"The fact is that we can't account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we can't."After reviewing the discussion in Trenberth 2009, it's apparent that what he meant was this:"Global warming is still happening - our planet is still accumulating heat. But our observation systems aren't able to comprehensively keep track of where all the energy is going. Consequently, we can't definitively explain why surface temperatures have gone down in the last few years. That's a travesty!"Skeptics use Trenberth's email to characterise climate scientists as secretive and deceptive. However, when one takes the trouble to acquaint oneself with the science, the opposite becomes apparent. Trenberth outlines his views in a clear, open manner, frankly articulating his frustrations at the limitations of observation systems. Trenberth's opinions didn't need to be illegally stolen and leaked onto the internet. They were already publicly available in the peer reviewed literature - and much less open to misinterpretation than a quote-mined email.
CLEARLY A CASE OF LAY PEOPLE JUST NOT ABLE TO COMPREHEND HOW SCIENCE WORKS. db
Of course in this case their peers would also be bullshapers.What he meant but didn't say is in quotation marks, clearly they don't know how grammar works.![]()
The Missing Heat is in the Oceans and thus the energy source for cyclones and hurricanes.

Lately some controversy has occurred over the location of the missing heat identified by climate science. The climate sceptical position seems to have gone down the road of dismissing the idea, mocking it by pointing out that as the ocean … Continue reading →
So Trenberth is correct, the missing heat is indeed in the oceans, but only in the top 500 metres or so, and in the form of a potential energy embedded in the electric charge separation formed by the transformation to EZ water, and not as a rise in temperature that all and sundry are searching for.

RealClimate: What ocean heating reveals about global warming
Well, Beav, you're in "good" company:Make a list and send me a copy and I'll try to convince the engineers and doctors who've mislead me into misunderstanding. There's two distinct camps of science Lester those that do actual science and those that beg to be believed without any clue or evidence where the heat could be hiding. I'll believe in global warming when palm trees sprout in Nova Scotia and I'm never going to pay one thin dime for global climate change remediation nor will I donate when the twits tell us we have to speed the earths rotation to bleed off the excess heat.
The climates changing, that's what it does, that's natural.![]()

RealClimate: What ocean heating reveals about global warming
yeah. Pretty entertaining.Yeah really though...'there is no energy imbalance' according to DB's understanding of Hissink, but there is missing heat and it's stored in the oceans as thermal and potential energy according to Hissink.
Doesn't matter what form the energy is in, it can't be missing, much less found in two different forms if there wasn't an imbalance in the first place...
I'm not surprised, as DB has shown that his physics misunderstanding means a survival blanket can't physically exist, much less work as a survival tool.

So, how does your theory accommodate the various 'imbalances' throughout millions of years of history?
... Yeah, thought not
In the big picture, all of the techno-babble does not change the fact that this cyclical trend has been active (and remains so) for millions of years.
Yeah, well if you're willing to cast aside evidence as techno babble, then I can see how you would think it's factual that there is nothing more than some assumed natural cycle at work.

Attempting to assess causation to anthro sources is a fools errand... hell, it wasn't so long ago that the 'science' pointed to the Global Warming hysteria that would result in the desertification of the globe, yet here we are, with overall cooling
I think anyone with two brain cells could at least admit that the human animal is at very least a contributing factor, without having to discard the possibility other factors are also at play.

JLM, you'll end up on an Alberta no-fly list.
