Seriously... what is the basis for your claim that regional events recorded in history accurately record * global * temperatures?

Not exact matches

But the 2015 event which took place May 15 - 16 was one for the record books, with an unprecedented $ 219,547.20 raised for the regional conservation leader's wildlife sanctuaries and programs.

Using dendrochronology — analyzing tree rings to date past events — the team was building a record of regional fires and droughts going back about 650 years.

Human evolution is characterised by speciation, extinction and dispersal events that can not currently be explained by global or regional paleoclimate records [1]--[3].

Though I would comment re: 1931 that regional warm events are not necessarily correlated very well with El Nino conditions e.g. 2006 was the warmest year on record in the UK (HadCET), and 2003 saw a record hot summer in western Europe.

Furthermore, the next large El Nino event will very likely bring new record highs to global temperatures, perhaps breaking those records as strongly as Australia's regional records were shattered in 2013.

The piece ignores the broader context in which all manner of contributing factors is assessed to understand the magnitude of events, their temporal and regional specificity (e.g., why did the heat wave happen over Texas (rather than Washington), why did it occur in 2011 (and not 2009, or next year), and why did it break the previous records by a factor of 2.

... «When you hear a phrase like he said, «the highest ever,» you know, «off the charts,» «record setting,» that's a good sign that on top of a whatever local weather patterns there are or regional like El Nino, global warming, fossil fuel driven climate change is putting its finger on the scale and juicing the atmosphere and causing the even bigger weather event than you would have otherwise seen.»

Searching for past regional extreme events through the historical and paleo records should be the focus, rather than working to air brush the past global variability.

An analysis of the 2014 global temperature anomaly record shows that the record 2014 anomaly may not have been a global event at all caused by increased man made greenhouse gases but a regional SST record event in the North Pacific caused by unique ocean / atmospheric interchange events that may happen from time to time.

Note that regional proxies, such as the oxygen - isotope temperature reconstructions from the Greenland Ice Core Project that record Dansgaard - Oeschger events, often indicate faster regional rates of climate change than the overall global average for glacial - interglacial transitions, just as today warming is more pronounced in Arctic regions than in equatorial regions (Barnosky et al., 2003; Diffenbaugh and Field, 2013).

[Response: No, the issue is the attribution of a local / regional record event to a local / regional trend.

So until you can quantify the probability that this event was analysed given that it was a record, you can not make post-hoc attributions of a record to a regional climate trend.

Tectonic - magmatic (rift to drift) events on both the West and East Greenland margins are recorded by Paleocene and Early Eocene flood basalts, regional dike swarms, central intrusions and sill complexes in Paleozoic - Mesozoic rift basins that have been exposed by Tertiary uplift.
