New study narrows the gap between climate models and reality
http://phys.org/news/2015-07-narrows-gap-climate-reality.html
A new study led by a University of York scientist addresses an
important question in climate science: how accurate are climate model
projections?
Climate models are used to estimate future global warming, and their
accuracy can be checked against the actual global warming observed so
far. Most comparisons suggest that the world is warming a little more
slowly than the model projections indicate. Scientists have wondered
whether this difference is meaningful, or just a chance fluctuation.
Dr Kevin Cowtan, of the Department of Chemistry at York, led an
international study into this question and its findings are published
in Geophysical Research Letters. The research team found that the way
global temperatures were calculated in the models failed to reflect
real-world measurements. The climate models use air temperature for
the whole globe, whereas the real-world data used by scientists are a
combination of air and sea surface temperature readings.
Dr Cowtan said: "When comparing models with observations, you need to
compare apples with apples."

You keep saying it is "settled science", ass hole, so how can there
be anything new?

So the models are wrong, because they are being fudged by governments
who want to impose and raise taxes
Individual Carbon Tax, only 1200 carbon units allowed per year
Tax on all enegry transactions
Tax on all things currently not Taxed.
Tax on anyone living past the age of 65

Scientists have wondered

if they are "wondering", they are NOT scientists, and must be fired.

NO SHIT SHERLOCK, 99% or more of the data is "estimated"

air is 1,000 less dense than water, so Air temps are 1,000 times less
important, GOT THAT ?
