Mike's work, like that of previous award winners, is diverse, and includes pioneering and highly cited work in time series analysis (an elegant
use of Thomson's multitaper spectral analysis approach to detect spatiotemporal oscillations in the climate record and methods for smoothing temporal data), decadal climate variability (the term «Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation» or «AMO» was coined by Mike in an interview with
Science's Richard Kerr about a paper he had published with Tom Delworth of GFDL showing evidence in both climate model simulations and observational data for a 50 - 70 year oscillation in the climate system; significantly Mike also published work with Kerry Emanuel in 2006 showing that the AMO concept has been overstated as regards its role in 20th century tropical Atlantic SST changes, a finding recently reaffirmed by a study published in Nature), in showing how changes in radiative forcing from volcanoes can affect ENSO, in examining the role of solar variations in explaining the pattern of the Medieval Climate Anomaly and Little Ice Age, the relationship between the climate changes of past centuries and phenomena such as Atlantic tropical cyclones and global sea level, and even a bit of work in
atmospheric chemistry (an analysis of beryllium - 7 measurements).

Is it not plausible that instead of a situation existing where scientists — in some cases the same scientist —
use identical tactics behind cancerous second - hand smoke and ozone depletion denial to sow disinformation over climate
science which delays political action, that we instead have — in some cases — the same small clique of enviro - activists (none of whom possessing
science expertise to prove Dr Singer's
atmospheric assessments are disinformation) attempting to prop up unsupportable political agendas through the
use of character assassination disinformation?
First is that the climate models
using by the IPCC are running behind the latest
science, and secondly, and quite significantly, the climate models
used by the IPCC produce too much warming for a given rise in
atmospheric carbon dioxide levels.
Well I'm just an
atmospheric chemist by training so what do I know about «climate
science», but it seems to me that doing the work that can be done with statistical methods that are generally agreed to be «correct» rather than flaky, describing the methods
used in detail so that others can follow the arguments and criticise where needed woudl be A Good Thing.
And that's illustrated if you compare how «
science - based» and «
science - denier» blogs discuss right about any climate - related topic, from actual
atmospheric temperature development to its physical manifestations, like sea level rise (see the chart in the middle of this piece) and social and ecological consequences of climate change — including at some point the fate of iconic mammal species that
use sea ice as hunting grounds.
