Your link to Warden presumes that we have AGW, and it also shows the AGW propagandistic
paleoclimatology proxy temperature graph (with which they replaced the «hockeystick») instead of the total revision of hundreds of proxy studies.

Dr Kevin Anchukaitis, associate professor of
paleoclimatology at the University of Arizona, who also wasn't involved in the study, disagrees that
proxy records can't record climate extremes — indeed, it is only through using
proxies that scientists know about past extremes, he says.
The story really starts with my first piece on the Wegman report just over a year ago, which noted unmistakable copying of unattributed antecedent sources in background sections on tree ring
proxies (taken from Bradley's text book
Paleoclimatology: Reconstructing Climates of the Quaternary) and on social networks (identifying Wikipedia, as well as and Wasserman and Faust as obvious sources).
Please explain how much of the earth any
proxy used in
paleoclimatology uses.
Evans, M. N., et al. (2013), Applications of
proxy system modeling in high resolution
paleoclimatology, Quat.
Today we'll take a closer look at Wegman et al's key passage on tree - ring
proxies and do a detailed side - by - side comparison with its apparent main antecedent, chapter section 10.2 in Raymond Bradley's classic
Paleoclimatology: Reconstructing Climates of the Quaternary.
In the end — without tree - rings, which make up the great bulk of all the
proxies,
paleoclimatology is a cooked goose — there would be no substance to the
proxies.
Just as one would expect, the «pseudo-
proxies» (actually null
proxies) performance relative to the real
proxies was * worse * on those specific blocks (the ones actually used in
paleoclimatology), than on average over all blocks.
It's rather ironic that a skeptic like Dr. Idso is at least partially responsible for producing the
proxy most important in getting multiproxy
paleoclimatology off the ground.
