Dendroclimatologists Answer Back

This thread is dedicated to dendroclimatologists who are seeking for a way to answer alleged “misinformation” at climateaudit without having to defend themselves against dozens of follow-up posts. Any posts on this thread from non-dendroclimatologists seeking to argue or contest these comments will be deleted, although posters, including myself, will be free to discuss these […]

Bürger and "Skill"

CA readers have followed some of the interesting reviews at Climate of the Past, where some of the exchanges have been lively (although most papers don’t seem to attract much comment.) Two reviews are in on Bürger’s most recent submission and a 3rd reviewer has been invited to give an opinion. However, he’s slow about […]

ClimateAudit updated

I’ve just upgraded the WordPress software to the latest version (2.12), so I’d appreciate any feedback as to anything wrong/missing/not working. I’ve decided to update the software fairly regularly, but not be right on the bleeding edge. We were on version 1.5.0.3 for a long time but useful plug-ins for WordPress 2 wouldn’t work, and […]

Google and Climateaudit

I’ve noted from time to time that climateaudit.org ranked extremely high on many google searches. One of the ways to find articles here has been to simply use google. I often do it. Today when I googled “climateaudit curry”, I found no link to climateaudit. I did other experiments with terms that I’ve documented here […]

Wegman's replies to Stupak

I know this is well after the event, but Dr Wegman’s extensive and detailed responses to Rep Stupak‘s written questions are interesting reading. I’m not aware that Steve linked to this document before. Beware though: the file is 10MB in size, so I’d recommend a right click followed by “Save Target as” – otherwise your […]

Holgate on Sea Level

John Bell has posted some comments on a thread here about a recent poster and GRL article by Holgate on sea level rise. Here’s something that caught my eye.

Welcome back

Sorry about the outage but the VPS just became so unstable that it was unusable, and Steve was spending too much time fretting over the server rather than doing his analysis of climate science. There are various things in the background which need to be setup, but hopefully all commenters can carry on commenting. By […]

Antarctic and Sea Level

The SPM contains an embarrassing typographical error in connection with an issue identified as a hot-button issue: the contribution of Antarctic ice sheets to sea level rise. It also failed to report WG1 model results on Antarctic contributions to lowering sea levels in the 21st century.

Strange Interruption

climateaudit was not really hijacked. The domain registration was scheduled to expire on Jan 31, 2007. An invoice for this was sent in December 2006. My credit card had rolled over since the previous payment. So when the server attempted to process the domain registration, the payment was refused. They notified me and I sent […]
