computer model projections of what things will look like
in 100 years, they are things that the average person can see and witness right now.
Even if the study were right... (which it is not) mainstream scientists use * three * methods to predict a global warming trend... not just climate
computer models (which stand up extremely well for general
projections by the way) under world - wide scrutiny... and have for all intents and purposes already correctly predicted the future -(Hansen 1988
in front of Congress and Pinatubo).
As a result,
computer models can not make «predictions» they only provide «
projections» which are based on the value of the assumptions made
in their preparation.
Are all of the alarmist warmistas
in a world - at - risk tizzy over
projections of catastrophe by
computer models, or are they engaged
in making predictions of impending doom, based on
models and all manner of other misinterpreted evidence and made up nonsense?
The problem is
in the argument, used quite extensively to give credential to
projection in front of a public not used to numerical
modeling of Chaotic PDE, that GCM are
computer implementation of first physical principles, which makes the
model inherently «solid».
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change said
in 2007 that
computer model projections did not indicate the weather cycle's strength or frequency would alter during the 21st century.
Comment (2 - 13): The Southeastern Legal Foundation provides the following reaction to the African rain - fed agriculture
projection, which appeared
in the Sunday Times (Leake, 2010a) and comes from former IPCC chair Robert Watson: «Any such
projection [pertaining to African crop yields] should be based on peer - reviewed literature from
computer modeling of how agricultural yields would respond to climate change.
The study found that, based on recent ice loss rates and the movement of the Thwaites Glacier
in West Antarctica, as well as
computer model projections, «early - stage collapse has begun.»
Projected warming and climate change due to CO2 only occurs
in predetermined Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
computer models that exclude major mechanisms and whose
projections are consistently wrong.
N (3) The
computer climate
models are not reliable or consistently accurate, and
projections of future climate states are little more than speculation as the uncertainty and error ranges are enormous
in a non-linear climate system.
Results from an irreducibly simple climate
model,» concluded that, once discrepancies
in IPCC
computer models are taken into account, the impact of CO2 - driven manmade global warming over the next century (and beyond) is likely to be «no more than one - third to one - half of the IPCC's current
projections» — that is, just 1 - 2 degrees C (2 - 4 deg F) by 2100!
In that report by Christopher Booker, headlined «Top scientists start to examine fiddled global warming figures,» he points out that a new team of five scientists has begun investigating the increasing evidence that the data being used for climate - change
projections by
computer models has been intentionally distorted by analysts wedded to the global warming hypothesis.
Thus, it is perfectly legitimate
in science to check whether the
computer GCMs adopted by the IPCC fulfill the required scientific tests, that is whether these
models reconstruct sufficiently well the 20th century global surface temperature and, consequently, whether these
models can be truly trusted
in their 21st century
projections.
Computer model projections show the likelihood for particularly heavy rains
in parts of Oklahoma.
It is well recognized that our inability to accurately simulate clouds
in computer models is the largest uncertainty
in climate change
projections.
Such solecisms throughout the IPCC's assessment reports (including the insertion, after the scientists had completed their final draft, of a table
in which four decimal points had been right - shifted so as to multiply tenfold the observed contribution of ice - sheets and glaciers to sea - level rise), combined with a heavy reliance upon
computer models unskilled even
in short - term
projection, with initial values of key variables unmeasurable and unknown, with advancement of multiple, untestable, non-Popper-falsifiable theories, with a quantitative assignment of unduly high statistical confidence levels to non-quantitative statements that are ineluctably subject to very large uncertainties, and, above all, with the now - prolonged failure of TS to rise as predicted (Figures 1, 2), raise questions about the reliability and hence policy - relevance of the IPCC's central
projections.
