The Holocene Temperature Conundrum

[petros]

When it comes to Climate Change there is "On Record" and then there is "Long Term Reality".

After 350 years of the coldest era in modern man's history we are undeniably warming up and are currently still 0.5C short of the Holocene Interglacial average but is it because of man and CO2?

CO2 modelling is a failure and now "climate researchers" are scrambling trying to save face.

This has been dubbed The Holocene Temperature Conundrum.


A recent temperature reconstruction of global annual temperature shows Early Holocene warmth followed by a cooling trend through the Middle to Late Holocene [Marcott SA, et al., 2013, Science 339(6124):1198-1201]. This global cooling is puzzling because it is opposite from the expected and simulated global warming trend due to the retreating ice sheets and rising atmospheric greenhouse gases. Our critical reexamination of this contradiction between the reconstructed cooling and the simulated warming points to potentially significant biases in both the seasonality of the proxy reconstruction and the climate sensitivity of current climate models.

Have they finally given up on an ice free North pole since 2013?

2030 us the new ice free target.

They changed the regulations for driving B.C. highways from no driving without certified snow tires between Oct 31 to April 31 to March 31 this winter . Funny the worst and longest winter in 10 hit the southern mountains . I sure saw lots of unprepared vehicles off the road . I am thinking of a class action suit against the Department of Highways , perhaps Techumpshe will take it on .

The joy of computer modeling- garbage in=garbage out.Especially when one is a tempting to make the data fit the conclusion instead of starting with a hypothesis and attempting to prove or disprove it.
