Bring the discussion of a couple of days ago further forward, here is a very interesting graphic from Ravelo and Ward [2004] showing the transition from Pliocene to the Pleistocene (read R to L), which gives a somewhat different perspective on the Pleistocene than just looking at the Vostok core back to 800K (although that’s […]
Just got back from Washington a few minutes ago (I think that the presentations went very well) and saw this press release from Wahl and Amman (link). The points appear to be ones that have been posted up at realclimate before, which we’ve fully considered and, in my opinion, don’t lay a glove on our […]
Benny Peiser sent in this link to a speech delivered by David Henderson, formerly head of the department of Economics and Statistics at the OECD. What it’s really about is the rise of an illiberal, collectivist and anti-market economic consensus in important political insitutions and western societies in general. But it also touches upon issues […]
There’s a problem with the weblog database, making posting beyond a certain length impossible. I’ve asked Steve to tell the webhost to put in more hamsters…. We hope to be back shortly with more good stuff. PS If someone could let me have a copy of "Hansen et al., Earth’s Energy Imbalance: Confirmation and Implications, […]
A curiosity that might interest others. The tracking software for this site logs browser type. To my surprise, there are somewhat more Mozilla Firefox hits to this site than Internet Explorer. I would never have guessed. We’ll have about 50,000 hits in April. The biggest traffic days were the two days around the slashdot article […]
I might as well illustrate real-time frustrations in dealing with the Hockey Team. I’ve written back on Jacoby’s stonewalling to Climatic Change (who have been trying and who at least got a refusal from Jacoby) as follows.
The University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), a consortium of 68 North American research universities, sent out the invitation shown here for a Senate briefing.
Just a short note about an article in the Skeptical Inquirer on the subject of "Judging Authority" and the necessity of critical thinking. Living well requires that we be able to evaluate our environment rationally. Simple things, like crossing the street, shopping, eating, and listening to our doctors, involve three skills: critical thinking, evidential reasoning, […]
Today we passed 100,000 hits since this site started on Feb. 7. On Feb. 14, after a front page article in the Wall Street Journal, we got just under 4,000 hits. We’ve just passed 4,000 hits today with slashdot traffic. New slashdot readers specifically interested in the MBH98 dispute should try the Categories tab at […]
Our former sticky notes "Overview", "Due Diligence" and "Bring the Proxies up to date" have been disappeared (by the WordPress software) from the top of the page. As they’re important, I’ve put them as links in the "Favorite Posts" list in the sidebar. They’re still current, so if you want to add comments to them, […]
