If the predicted cooling by la Nina had not occurred then 2008 would probably have been the same temperature (given the uncertainties) as every year since 2001 and that in itself would require explanation.I am broadly in favour of the global warmingCO2 hypothesis but I know it is just that, a hypothesis — and that needs testing against real observations in the physical world.

This essay is an attempt to link real world observations (the failure of surface temperatures to rise in tandem with atmospheric CO2) to basic physics and thereby show why the radiative characteristics of Greenhouse Gases can not increase the surface temperature of a planet when atmospheric mass, the strength of the gravitational field and the power of insolation at the top of the atmosphere remain the same.
«That was one of the most incredible temperature observations I have ever seen and it is one of the most extreme readings ever in the world,» stated AccuWeather Meteorologist Anthony Sagliani.»
To conduct its analysis, GISS uses publicly available data from three sources: weather data from more than a thousand meteorological stations around the world; satellite observations of sea surface temperature; and Antarctic research station measurements.
A new NASA and University of Tasmania study combined the ship's 135 - plus - year - old measurements of ocean temperatures with modern observations to get a picture of how the world's ocean has changed since the Challenger's voyage.
The most basic is that there are more real - world observations, including global emissions of CO2 and aerosols and readings at temperature stations and SST buoys, leading to new values for stats like globally averaged temperature anomaly, and the like.
Just ask the world's farmers «Observations by farmers in Africa, Asia and Latin America confirm reports of rising temperatures and extreme weather» http://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2013/sep/27/ipcc-climate-change-world-farmers

soundly based in actual temperature observations of the real world... while yours seems to be largely dreamt up as a consequence of untried and unproven models.
Firstly, on a factual matter, the OHC comparison which I published above...... was not intended to be a comparison with real - world observations, only a comparison with the GISS E ensemble mean result, which should correspond to the reported GISS E temperature profile which was simultaneously matched.
The temperature analysis produced at GISS is compiled from weather data from more than 1,000 meteorological stations around the world, satellite observations of sea surface temperature and Antarctic research station measurements.
I like borehole data as they seem to reflect real world observations and instrumental records which demonstrate that temperatures have been rising for some 300 years, not just the last century.
As we know, there is a diurnal (day / night) temperature, and observation protocol changes, as known occurred during the world wars.
A wide range of other observations (such as reduced Arctic sea ice extent and increased ocean heat content) and indications from the natural world (such as poleward shifts of temperature - sensitive species of fish, mammals, insects, etc.) together provide incontrovertible evidence of planetary - scale warming.
Real - world observations indicate that elevated CO2 and elevated temperatures are having a positive effect on most corals.
3) However, even if the actual variance in TSI during that period was less than 4 Watts per square metre the fact is that various changes in temperature trend did occur and the shape of the chart would remain so on the basis of real world observations we must accept that the lower the range of TSI involved then the more sensitive the Earth is as a water based thermometer.
Since ocean temperature anomalies in the canonical Niño 3.4 region are now above 2 C — which are record values for the calendar month and not too far from their highest values ever observed at any time of year — current observations in the real world suggests that the models are very much on track.
Unfortunately, we are stuck with the historical temperature record, where there are only a handful of stations in the world that have remained at the exact same location with the exact same instrument and observation time with no major changes to micro - or meso - scale environments over the last 100 + years.
A warmer world is expected to have more extreme rainfall occurrences because the amount of water vapor that the atmosphere holds increases rapidly with temperature, a tendency confirmed by observations.
