Spiegel Report: “Greenland Melting More Slowly Than Expected” …Sea Level Rise Alarm Called Off!
Online Spiegel magazine (SPON) has an article today by Axel Bojanowski titled: “Sea level rise: Greenland melting more slowly than expected“. Bojanowski writes: Melting in Greenland is a decisive factor on how fast the sea level rises. Now research on five glaciers on the country are showing: The northern ice cap will indeed melt more [...]
Duke Scientist On Sea Level Rise: “Patterns In Tide Gauge Records Mostly Driven By Natural Oscillations”!
A newly published paper by Nicola Scafetta of Duke University takes a look at sea level rise, particularly acceleration and deceleration in relation to ocean cycles: Multi-scale dynamical analysis (MSDA) of sea level records versus PDO, AMO, and NAO indexes. Climate Dynamics, in press. Photo right: Prof. Nicola Scafetta Professor Scafetta examined tide gauge records [...]
Catastrophe-Obsessed Potsdam Climate Institute Logic: “When You Eat More, You Lose Weight!”
Right…and starvation leads to obesity. The alarmists at the German Potsdam Climate Institute now claim global warming leads to colder and snowier winters, which lead to accelerated ice melt in Antarctica. In their latest blog article, Dr. Sebastian Lüning and Prof. Fritz Vahrenholt say this is like claiming eating more makes you lose weight. =================================================== New [...]
Charts Of IPCC 5 AR Draft Completely Refute The Alarmist Scenarios Of Master Curve Designer Stefan Rahmstorf
Now that the preliminary draft of the IPCC Assessment Report 5 (AR 5) is available online, thanks to Alec Rawls, readers have had the chance to analyze it in detail. Michael Krüger at Readers Edition here takes a look at some of the charts and graphics for temperature and sea level rise development, and compares the IPCC [...]
IPCC Catastrophe Fantasy-Fest…Scientist Prof. Mojib Latif Now Claims Half Of Both Poles Melted Since 1979!
Lately we’ve seen how leading IPCC scientists have been ignoring real data and presenting instead fantasized catastrophe scenarios as the real facts. Global temperatures, they claim, are rising faster (in fact they haven’t risen in 15 years), sea level rise is accelerating (in fact it is decelerating), and storms are increasing (when in fact they have [...]
Meteorologist Klaus-Eckart Puls: Sea Level Rise Has Slowed 34% Over The Last Decade!
German veteran meteorologist Klaus-Eckart Puls here has done an analysis of sea level rise. Contrary to claims made by fringe alarmist physicists, we see that sea level rise has decelerated markedly since 2003. Sea Level Rise Since 2003 Has Slowed Down From 1993 to 2003, sea level rose 3.5 mm/year. Over the next decade, sea [...]
Stefan Rahmstorf’s Sea Level Amnesia – Using His Own Numbers, Sea Level Rise Actually Slowed Down 3%!
Ulli Kulke, veteran journalist at the German flagship daily DIE WELT, posts a comment at his blog on über-alarmist Stefan Rahmstorf’s claim that “sea levels are rising 60% faster” than previously thought in 2007. Sea levels have decelerated over the last years. Chart source: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/. Being a devout alarmist, Rahmstorf is obsessed with finding ways [...]
NOAA Data (Again) Shows No Acceleration In Sea Level Rise. “CO2 Climate Hypothesis Is In A Free-Fall”
Michael Krüger at Readers Edition writes about sea level data from the NOAA. NOAA INTERACTIVE SEA LEVEL CHART – CLICK HERE “We have to get used to the idea of a sea level rise of about one meter for this century,“ announced Prof. John Schellnhuber in 2008, based on new findings. Other researchers, based on [...]
German Professor Says We Are “Treading On Thin Ice” With Our Interpretation Of Warming
Online German daily Die Welt here published a surprisingly anti-alarmist article written by Prof Wolfgang Behringer, a science historian at the University of Saarbrücken. His conclusion: climate change and ice cap melting (and freezing) are nothing new and that man ought to be grateful it’s warmer, and not be hysterical about it. Indeed this is the [...]
German Survey Of Recent Scientific Literature Shows No Signs Of Accelerated Sea Level Rise
Geologist Dr. Sebastian Lüning and Prof. Fritz Vahrenholt have sifted through recent scientific literature looking for evidence that global sea level rise has accelerated over the last 3 decades. Their result: “The scientific facts speak very clearly against it. It is only a question of time before the idea disappears from the public discussion.” Lüning and [...]
California Sea Level Rise Is Slowing Down, Ignores The Modelers
By Ed Caryl On Friday, June 22nd, 2012, the The National Academy of Science issued a press release titled, “California Sea Level Projected to Rise at Higher Rate Than Global Average; Slower Rate for Oregon, Washington, But Major Earthquake Could Cause Sudden Rise”. Just in time for Rio+20. Figure 1: Arial photo of San Andreas [...]
What Are The Causes of Sea Level Rise?
Where Is All That Water Coming From? By Ed Caryl DirkH asked an interesting question in the comments to my last post: “It would be interesting to know how much of sea level rise is due to ancient aquifer depletion. Anyone got a number for that, in mm/yr?” The short answer (paper #1) is, about [...]
Data Show Sea level Rise Has Slowed Down Over The Last 7 Years
What Is Sea Level Really Doing? by Ed Caryl This is the second article I’ve written on sea level. For a review see A Level Look at Sea Level. Figure 1: Mean Sea Level, citation: Nerem, R. S., D. Chambers, C. Choe, and G. T. Mitchum. “Estimating Mean Sea Level Change from the TOPEX and [...]
ESA Envisat Pronounced Dead
What follows is a press release from ESA today: ESA declares end of mission for Envisat Just weeks after celebrating its tenth year in orbit, communication with the Envisat satellite was suddenly lost on 8 April. Following rigorous attempts to re-establish contact and the investigation of failure scenarios, the end of the mission is being [...]
Klaus-Eckart Puls: Sea Level Rise Is Slowing Down – “There’s Going To Be No Acceleration”
Veteran meteorologist Klaus-Eckart Puls made a presentation on sea level at the 4th climate conference in Munich at the end of last year. The data are clear: sea level rise is slowing down. Here are the data Puls presents: 0:35 – Not everyone is convinced sea levels will rise quickly. Qatar just built a stadium [...]
