When this type of adjustment is applied tot eh temperature data, the Pinatubo effect in 1992, 1993, and 1994 should be somewhat stronger (especially in 1992), and a bit closer to
the GISS model trend.
Not exact matches
The first 50 years (my longer term
model was based on
GISS land station data) had something like a 0.15 C upward
trend due to increased solar activity, compared to a ~ 0.10 C anthropogenic contribution.
On your further claim that the RSS data is consistent with the
models, please provide us with
GISS plots of the tropospheric and lower stratospheric layer average temperature data
trends (corresponding to their weighting functions TLS; TTS; TMT and TLT).
But
models are not tuned to the
trends in surface temperature, and as Gavin noted before (at least for the
GISS model), the aerosol amounts are derived from simulations using emissions data and direct effects determined by changes in concentrations.
The data analysis in this paper mainly concerned the
trends over land, thus a key assumption for this study appears to rest solely on a personal communication from an economics professor purporting to be the results from the
GISS coupled climate
model.
In the meantime you appear to be arguing with me over what the
GISS model shows for amplification of the MSU - LT
trends over land.
My question: The
GISS climate
model follows the 1993 - 2003
trend quite good.
I do have confidence on
trends of
trends, for example I can show real patterns in ratios of 4 year or longer rising vs falling
trends consistently both in the data (and in BEST, HADCRUT,
GISS, etc separately) and in the
models, if done correcly too.
Dr Curry, the mean
model surface temperature
trend estimate is ~ 0.20 C / decade compared to Cowtan and Way ~ +0.17 C or
GISS ~ +0.16 C (both attempting improved Arctic representation).
We are investigating the effects of long - term emissions
trends using a version of the
GISS climate
model that includes atmospheric chemistry.
Thus the
trend of RSS satellite data from September 1997 through August 2009, for instance, would be negative (and not statistically significant) while the
trend of the
GISS surface data from September 1998 through August 2009 would be positive, and marginally below
model projections.
GISS and NCDC have higher
trends and fall in a different, «more likely» part of the
model distribution.
Despite this huge 6 - month surge, the
GISS linear
trend is still well below the
model's simulated linear
trend since 1988
If the climate
models use hindcasting to Hadley or
Giss pre-1979 temperature series as any sort of calibration, they are calibrating to a CREATED
TREND, created using cooling adjustments to pre-1979 data.
Isn't it amazing how well a temperature record such as
GISS can be
modeled by a montonically accelerating warming
trend dotted with the SOI fluctuations and precisely placed volcanic disturbances?
Of course, that doesn't prove the
GISS model is correct, since the
modeled trend seems due to a combination of overstated ocean heat uptake (known to be incorrect) and an almost certainly overstated sensitivity to forcing.
