When we consider that he picked two gridcells and took the best one, it would take the 7 %
signal to noise estimate and drop it to indistinguishable from zero.

This pixel
noise also increases more rapidly as galaxy
signal -
to -
noise decreases than is found for shear
estimates.
It turns out that for the
signal -
to -
noise ratios
estimated for the individual tree - ring records, one would be hard pressed
to cleanly isolate the volcanic cooling
signal in individual records or even regional composites.
We recently published a study in Scientific Reports titled Comparing the model - simulated global warming
signal to observations using empirical
estimates of unforced
noise.
We use observed
estimates of the
signal component of TLT changes and model
estimates of climate
noise to calculate timescale - dependent
signal -
to -
noise ratios (S / N).
Our
estimated signal -
to -
noise (S / N) ratios for global - scale TLT changes were less than 1.0 on the 10 - year timescale.
«Our
estimated signal -
to -
noise (S / N) ratios for global - scale TLT changes were less than 1.0 on the 10 - year timescale (Figure 6C).
Using these
estimates, we calculate
signal -
to -
noise (S / N) ratios
to quantify the strength of the fingerprint in the observations relative
to fingerprint strength in natural climate
noise.
«When the data are adjusted
to remove the
estimated impact of known factors on short - term temperature variations (El Nino / southern oscillation, volcanic aerosols and solar variability), the global warming
signal becomes even more evident as
noise is reduced.»
When those series consist of a common
signal plus incoherent
noise, the best
estimate of the common
signal has weights proportional
to the sensitivity of the proxy divided by its
noise variance.
By averaging over the runs, the
noise (which is uncorrelated from one run
to another) averages out, and what is left is an
estimate of the forced
signal and its uncertainty.
The detection of the anthropogenic climate
signal thus requires at least the analysis of long records, because we can be easily fooled by the natural fluctuations, and we need
to understand their dynamics
to better
estimate the internal
noise level.

The space - time structure of natural climate variability needed
to determine the optimal fingerprint pattern and the resultant
signal -
to -
noise ratio of the detection variable is
estimated from several multi-century control simulations with different CGCMs and from instrumental data over the last 136 y. Applying the combined greenhouse gas - plus - aerosol fingerprint in the same way as the greenhouse gas only fingerprint in a previous work, the recent 30 - y trends (1966 — 1995) of annual mean near surface temperature are again found
to represent a significant climate change at the 97.5 % confidence level.
