However, calling it by its proper name, carbon fertilization, would be like discussing global
warming predictions while using the specific term CAGW rather than «climate change» and so admitting that global cooling is contradictory: not sufficiently dishonest.

Prediction Center.
While RealClimate has called into question the soundness of the paper's quite narrow conclusions of discrepancy between model
predictions and measurements of the relative rate of
warming of different levels of the atmosphere over the tropics, this paper is being touted by the deniers as showing that the models are wrong to predict any
warming at all, and that
predictions of future
warming and climate change can be entirely discounted.
The Global
Warming Speedometer for January 2001 to June 2016 shows observed warming on the HadCRUT4 and NCEI surface temperature datasets as below IPCC's least prediction in 1990 and somewhat on the low side of its 1995 and 2001 predictions, while the satellite datasets show less warming than all IPCC predictions from 1990 t

If you were a nerdy scientist and could a great salary for playing computer games in an air - conditioned office, get in the media by making a scary climate
prediction, and possibly become famous — maybe even getting to fly to an overseas global
warming conference in Al Gore's private jet, and
while doing all of this you can tell everyone you are working» hard» (9 am to 5 pm heh heh) «to save the Earth»....
While CAGW
predictions fail to materialize and mis - guided nations and leaders continue to focus on beneficial
warming as if it's the end of the world and ignore reality, the push for renewables like solar / wind, will end up making our power grid unstable - leaving millions without reliable power during the times when they'll need it the most - ie., during very cold winters.
While others made
predictions for average or
warmer than normal temperatures, only AER predicted cold for January, February, and March across the United States, Europe, and Asia.
Ignoring the first two years of Argo data, the
warming trend is about 0.004 C / yr,
while the (noted) IPCC
prediction is.007 C / yr.
This would seem to be a major difficulty and,
while models could presumably be modified to create this feature and global
warming, would one have any confidence in the result of the model as this is post-hoc calibration as opposed to pre-hoc
prediction?
When a measurement is done at top of such variation, the result is that cooling has occurred
while a simultaneous measurement at the low point of the
prediction tells about
warming.
While perhaps failing to observe the irony of its own reporting, the Times juxtaposed the thoroughly discredited population explosion theories of the 1970s with the (equally alarmist) global
warming predictions of our day.
His Climategate fame is derived from his concern about a «travesty» that «we can't account for the lack of
warming at the moment,» in addition to his other failed
predictions such as future hurricane horrors
while administering discipline as one of the scientific journal brown shirts.
To point out just a couple of things: — oceans
warming slower (or cooling slower) than lands on long - time trends is absolutely normal, because water is more difficult both to
warm or to cool (I mean, we require both a bigger heat flow and more time); at the contrary, I see as a non-sense theory (made by some serrist, but don't know who) that oceans are storing up heat, and that suddenly they will release such heat as a positive feedback: or the water
warms than no heat can be considered ad «stored» (we have no phase change inside oceans, so no latent heat) or oceans begin to release heat but in the same time they have to cool (because they are losing heat); so, I don't feel strange that in last years land temperatures for some series (NCDC and GISS) can be heating up
while oceans are slightly cooling, but I feel strange that they are heating up so much to reverse global trend from slightly negative / stable to slightly positive; but, in the end, all this is not an evidence that lands»
warming is led by UHI (but, this effect, I would not exclude it from having a small part in temperature trends for some regional area, but just small); both because, as writtend, it is normal to have waters
warming slower than lands, and because lands» temperatures are often measured in a not so precise way (despite they continue to give us a global uncertainity in TT values which is barely the instrumental's one)-- but, to point out, HadCRU and MSU of last years (I mean always 2002 - 2006) follow much better waters» temperatures trend; — metropolis and larger cities temperature trends actually show an increase in UHI effect, but I think the sites are few, and the covered area is very small worldwide, so the global effect is very poor (but it still can be sensible for regional effects); but I would not run out a small
warming trend for airport measurements due mainly to three things: increasing jet planes traffic, enlarging airports (then more buildings and more asphalt — if you follow motor sports, or simply live in a town / city, you will know how easy they get very
warmer than air during day, and how much it can slow night - time cooling) and overall having airports nearer to cities (if not becoming an area inside the city after some decade of hurban growth, e.g. Milan - Linate); — I found no point about UHI in towns and villages; you will tell me they are not large cities; but, in comparison with 20-40-60 years ago when they were «countryside», many small towns and villages have become part of larger hurban areas (at least in Europe and Asia) so examining just larger cities would not be enough in my opinion to get a full view of UHI effect (still remembering that it has a small global effect: we can say many matters are due to UHI instead of GW, maybe even that a small part of measured GW is due to UHI, and that GW measurements are not so precise to make us able to make good analisyses and
predictions, but not that GW is due to UHI).
«one
prediction is that the troposphere will
warm while the stratosphere cools, which is very different than what would occur if the
warming were due to an increase in solar irradiance, and matches what has been observed»
For example, one
prediction is that the troposphere will
warm while the stratosphere cools, which is very different than what would occur if the
warming were due to an increase in solar irradiance, and matches what has been observed.
Consistent with the previous analyses at Skeptical Science, RFC12 finds that the climate models used in the IPCC 2001 Third Assessment Report (TAR) and 2007 Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) predicted the ensuing global surface
warming to a high degree of accuracy,
while their central sea level rise
predictions were too low by about 60 %.
And the 1988
predictions are going further off course year - by - year as the global
warming has now stopped for a period of time,
while Hansen's forecasts keep shooting upward like a NASA rocket.
And they have been used to make a variety of
predictions — including for example that with an enhanced greenhouse effect the upper stratosphere will cool
while the troposphere
warms, that nights will
warm more rapidly than days, and more generally the Hadley Cells and dry subtropics will expand, the continental interiors dry out, storm tracks move northward, the tropopause rise, changes in ocean circulation.
The actual empirical evidence has been unequivocal though: the spread of malaria has decreased
while the world has
warmed, clearly an irrefutable contradiction of «expert»
predictions.
While there is general agreement about the modern global
warming trend (since 1850), scientific controversies increase as climate research moves further back in time, and
predictions move further into the future.
While the potential remains for 2017 keeping
warm enough to pip 2016 to
warmest - calender - year on record (2016 averaged +0.99 ºC), the model
predictions for ENSO thro» the rest of the year which last month were suggesting an increasing likelihood of an El Nino ahead, these have reversed somewhat with more neutral conditions being predicted.
