Global Warming? The Boston Globe Reviews The Scientific Data

When Al Gore insisted yet again at a conference last Thursday that there can be no debate about global warming, he was speaking not with the authority of a man of science, but with the closed-minded dogmatism of a religious zealot. Dogma and zealotry have their virtues, no doubt. But if we want to understand where global warming has gone, those aren’t the tools we need

Climategate – The Hacked Emails: An Open Letter From Dr Judith Curry On The Loss Of Scientific Integrity In The Global Warming Debate

What has been noticeably absent so far in the ClimateGate discussion is a public reaffirmation by climate researchers of our basic research values: the rigors of the scientific method (including reproducibility), research integrity and ethics, open minds, and critical thinking. Under no circumstances should we sacrifice any of these values; the CRU emails, however, appear to violate them …. Judith Curry, Chair, School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences

Climategate: Hackers ‘expose global warming con’: Sceptics claim that leaked emails reveal research centre falsified temperature data

most damaging is one which appears to suggest using a ‘trick’ to falsify years of temperature data to ‘hide the decline’.
The CRU, which plays a leading role in compiling UN reports and tracks long-term changes in temperature, has repeatedly refused to provide detailed information about the data underlying the temperature records. The email suggesting ‘hiding the decline’ is purported to be from Phil Jones, the unit’s director. Jones denied trying to mislead, telling the TGIF digital newspaper he had no idea what he meant by the phrase. Jones also wrote this email, “‘The two MMs have been after the CRU station data for years. If they ever hear there is a Freedom of Information Act now in the U.K., I think I’ll delete the file rather than send to anyone. . . . We also have a data protection act, which I will hide behind.”

Associated Press: Record Antarctic Ice Sends Icebergs Careening Towards New Zealand

Icebergs are formed as ice shelves develop. Snow falls on the ice sheet and forms more ice, which flows to the edges of the floating ice shelves. Eventually, pieces around the edge break off……130 were counted in one satellite image alone and 100 in another …. The nearest one, measuring about 330 feet by 660 feet long (a football field wide and two football fields long), was 160 miles (260 kilometers) southeast of New Zealand’s Stewart Island on Tuesday ……
