I’ve loaded R-tables for the dset=1 and dset=2 versions. The R-tables are lists each 7364 long, each item is a station time series. The files are about 8 MB in size. I have a variety of little scripts to retrieve and analyze things. The data is located here: http://data.climateaudit.org/data/giss/giss.dset1.tab http://data.climateaudit.org/data/giss/giss.adj.tab Each file can be downloaded […]
Here’s a discussion of replication policy posted up in the relatively early days of the blog, which I’ve re-posted in light of NASA spokesman Gavin Schmidt’s attempts to justify Hansen’s refusal to provide the source code used in his temperature calculations. It seems that these calculations are important enough to prompt a concern over the […]
Well before the current debate over the value of the near surface temperature record and its many possible biases, and well before Parker’s UHI studies sought to minimize the effect based on windy -vs- non windy days, J. Murray Mitchell published a paper in 1952 titled: On the Causes of Instrumentally Observed Secular Temperature Trends […]
John A writes: As Steve has already mentioned, I asked to stand down two weeks ago from the responsibilities involved in running this now notorious blog and return my life to some semblence of normality.
The new server hardware I built for Climate Audit was deployed in the co-location center today in California, I hand delivered it myself. This new server has much over the old one from a tech spec point of view, including faster CPU, dual core, error corrected memory, and hi speed SATA2 drives. It’s biggest advantage […]
Here’s an interesting article on the NASA “Y2K” error from Michael Fumento of Townhall.com that steers between the over-reaction of some commentators that this error somehow disproves global warming and the claims of NASA spokesmen, James Hansen and Gavin Schmidt, that the error “doesn’t matter”. NASA spokesman Schmidt uses the realclimate.org website to advance the […]
Today Tomorrow (Thursday) sometime around 11am Pacific Standard Time, this server will go offline to be moved to its final home inside a colocation data center in California. The IP address will change, so give Anthony and team a couple of hours to move the server and reconfigure. Steve will change the domain climateaudit.org to […]
I’ve had to radically filter the connections to the weblog until we get our webhosting sorted out (hopefully this weekend). If you can read this, then you’re fortunate to be on a restricted number of subnets. The rest are getting a “403 Forbidden” error. We’ve had to block pretty much everybody because of the enormous […]
Continuation of Unthreaded #17
The server slowed down and stopped repeatedly as CA was either a) under a DDOS attack and/or b) got mentioned by Instapundit (the result is the same, the question is intent). I’ve changed the theme temporarily to make the site a bit faster. We are currently building a new server able to withstand these sorts […]
