Here’s Willis’ most recent summary of the ongoing dialogue on the Emanuel story.
This continues the previous post which is overweight in comments.
The NAS Panel used Esper et al 2002 as a comfort series in their spaghetti graph, but did not perform any due diligence on it. As some of you may recall, I’ve had prolonged correspondence with Science, after being stonewalled by Esper, and, as a result of that, have obtained versions of the chronologies used […]
On Sep 11-12, 2006, KTH (Royal Institute of Technology) in Stockholm, Sweden hosted an international seminar on climate variability (seminar website here). The seminar had 16 speakers from 14 countries and was attended by 120 people. It was organized by Peter Stilbs and Fred Goldberg, who extended great hospitality to the presenters. Anders FlodstràÆà, President […]

I will post on scientific aspects of both visits in subsequent posts, but for now wish first to record my appreciation for the personal hospitality shown to me in Sweden by Fred Goldberg and in Holland by Marcel Crok of NWT.

I’m leaving for a week in a few hours and will only be in intermittent contact. No fighting please. Anybody that feels like fighting – take a deep breath and don’t. Save it till I come back. If you’re suspended by John A while I’m away, too bad. TCO, this includes you. Maybe bender or […]
Judith Curry mentioned an AGU session on integrity in science. I’m thinking about sending in the following abstract. I’d need to do so by the end of the day. Any thoughts? If science articles and findings are communicated to the public with the possibility that they may influence policy, then scientists must be prepared for […]
