The absence of an attributable climate change signal in losses also holds for flood losses.»
Well my point is that a model that is tuned to match a climate signal only, should not track, accurately, a record that is both a climate and weather signal especially when we know that these medium term effects can be quite strong, even if they cycle out in the longer term.
I have said that if a model is set up to match a certain signal (not just climate) yet matches a signal that contains an additional cyclical factor which can change that signal significantly over the short and medium term then you would not expect it to show great accuracy over the short to medium term.
As Matthew L. Wald and others reported this morning, Energy Secretary Steven Chu is poised to head back to California, leaving President Obama with a new opportunity to signal his approach to energy and climate policy in his final term.

«What is generally required [for proving solar forcing of climate change] is a consistent signal over a number of cycles (either the 11 year sunspot cycle or more long term variations), similar effects if the timeseries are split, and sufficient true degrees of freedom that the connection is significant and that it explains a non-negligible fraction of the variance.»
Permit prices, since they would be more volatile over time than a specified tax trajectory, would mask the critical long - term signal that carbon will always be more expensive next year than it is today; that is, unavoidable volatility in permit prices would raise the economic cost of any climate target by clouding investment decisions with another source of uncertainty.
We've got to keep our eyes on the long - term data where the climate signal emerges from the noise of complex, natural systems.

If Mr. Rose really wants to improve his reporting and do a general service of advancing a true understanding of the issue of anthropogenic climate change, he needs to do a comprehensive article about Earth's energy budget, and state quite clearly all the different spheres (all layers of the atmosphere, hyrdosphere, crysosphere, and biosphere) in which the signal of anthropogenic warming is both modeled as impacting and then talk about what is data is actually saying in terms of Earth's energy imbalance in all these spheres.
