I enjoy surprises in data, especially when they might make alarmists unhappy. Willis Eschenbach’s post Greenland Is Way Cool at WattsUpWithThat prompted me to take a look at the Berkeley Earth edition of the Greenland TAVG...

Guest essay by Mike Jonas Introduction On 10 January, WUWT published my post A new system for determining global temperature. In that post, I described a proposed system for determining global temperature from the historical...

Guest post by David Middleton Featured image borrowed from here. If you can set aside the smug, snide remarks of the author, this article does a fairly good job in explaining why the surface station temperature data have...

Guest essay by Clyde Spencer The answer to the question is, “Yes!” Those who believe that Earth is going to Hell in a hand basket, because of anthropogenic carbon dioxide, go to extraordinary lengths to convince the public...

Guest Post by Bob Tisdale With the publication of the IPCC 5th Synthesis Report, I thought there might be some interest in a presentation of how well (actually poorly) climate models simulate global mean surface temperatures...

I mentioned the poster earlier here. Now I have the video interview and the poster in high detail. See below. [note- I originally uploaded the wrong poster from BEST - will be updated assuming Zeke has uploaded the correct...
