By «metaphysics in the strict sense,» one properly
means metaphysica generalis, or ontology, although from the standpoint of a neoclassical theism there can be no adequate distinction between ontology, on the one hand, and theology and cosmology, as disciplines of metaphysica specialis, on the other.1 From this standpoint, ontology is also theology in the sense that its constitutive concept «reality as such» necessarily involves the distinction /
correlation between the one necessarily existing individual and the many contingently existing individuals and events.

Taking a longer perspective, the 30 year
mean trends aren't greatly affected
by a single year (GISTEMP: 1978 - 2007 0.17 + / -0.04 ºC / dec; 1979 - 2008 0.16 + / -0.04 — OLS trends, annual data, 95 % CI, no correction for auto -
correlation; identical for HadCRU); they are still solidly upwards.
Well stated
by Mike Roddy but it needs to be pointed out that valid evidence always correlates well, but unfortunately high
correlation does not necessarily
mean valid evidence.

correlation of that cold patch with the flow over the sills; what we thus
mean by AMOC change is the AMOC further south.

correlation between the changes in the
mean surface temperature and the small changes in the rotational velocity of the Earth in the past 150 years (see Fig. 2.2 of / / www.fao.org/DOCREP/005/Y2787E/y2787e03.htm), which has been ignored

By all
means expect a
correlation between CET and global temperature, but don't interpret warming observed in CET as global warming.
For example, Brown and Caldeira (2017) use fluctuations in Earth's top - of - the - atmosphere (TOA) energy budget and their
correlation with the response of climate models to increases in GHG concentrations to infer that ECS lies between 3 and 4.2 K with 50 % probability, and most likely is 3.7 K. Assuming t statistics, this roughly corresponds to an ECS range that in IPCC parlance is considered likely (66 % probability) between 2.8 and 4.5 K.
By contrast, Cox et al. (2018) use fluctuations of the global -
mean temperature and their
correlation with the response of climate models to increases in GHG concentrations to infer that ECS likely lies between 2.2 and 3.4 K, and most likely is 2.8 K.

Of the factors examined, CH4 emissions were best predicted
by chlorophyll a concentrations (positive
correlation, p < 0.001, R2 = 0.50, n = 31); CO2 emissions were best predicted
by reported
mean annual precipitation (positive
correlation, p = 0.04, R2 = 0.11, n = 33); and N2O emissions were most strongly related to reservoir NO3 — concentrations (positive
correlation, p < 0.001, R2 = 0.49, n = 18, table 3, supplemental figure S6).
I assume that what is
meant by the «R2» statistic is the squared Pearson dot - moment
correlation, or r2 (i.e., the square of the simple linear
correlation coefficient between two time series) over the 1856 - 1901 «verification» interval for our reconstruction.

correlation does not
mean causation, but it seems to me that

means is that OHC before 2003 is essentially unreliable; Knox and Douglass confirmed this

Knutti et al. (2010a) investigated the behaviour of the state - of - the - art climate model ensemble created
by the World Climate Research Programme's Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 3 (CMIP3, Meehl et al. 2007), and found that the truth centred paradigm is incompatible with the CMIP3 ensemble: the ensemble
mean does not converge to observations as the number of ensemble members increases, and the pairwise
correlation of model errors (the differences between model and observation) between two ensemble members does not average to zero (Knutti et al. 2010a; Annan and Hargreaves 2010; hereafter AH10).
Summary of how they got to this finding: They use CMIP models which, if not outright flawed, have not proved their validity in estimated temperature levels in the 2030 to 2070 timeframe, are used as the basis for extrapolations that assert the creation of more and more 3 - sigma «extreme events» of hot weather; this is despite the statistical contradiction and weak support for predicting significant increases in outlier events based on
mean increases; then, based on statistical
correlations between mortality and extreme heat events (ie heat waves), temperature warming trends are conjured into an enlargement of the risks from heat events; risks increase significantly only
by ignoring obvious adjustments and mitigations any reasonable community or person would make to adapt to warmer weather.
