Share this…FacebookTwitterAt the end of the last glacial, when CO2 concentrations hovered around 250 ppm, there were abrupt warming and cooling events in the Spanish mountains (Béjar range) with magnitudes of 3°C within decades. Peak temperatures were at times warmer than today. It has often been claimed that abrupt warming and cooling events with amplitudes […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterReforestation removes CO2 from the atmosphere. Reforestation substantially cools the Earth’s land surfaces. Therefore, reforestation offers a “meaningful opportunity for local climate mitigation and adaptation”. So why are we focused on CO2 mitigation via reduction in fossil fuel use? Cooling the surface via reforestation A few months ago NoTricksZone featured a new study that […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterGeologist Dr. Sebastian Lüning just released a video that challenges the claim that today’s warming is unusual and caused mostly by human activities. While the video’s main focus is on Germany, it presents several key points that tell us why natural factors are just as much at play, if not more. Sea surface temperature […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterWidespread frost to grip Europe The past winter has been an unusually mild one for most of Europe, which has led many people to think spring was here to stay. But the weather pattern has since switched. Instead of westerly winds bringing mild temperatures and rains across Europe, as they did all winter long, […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterDonations now welcome! Before we jump into the data, readers may have noticed that NoTricksZone is now accepting donations – after close to 10 years of not doing so. Hosting services and the hourly rates specialists charge for troubleshooting are painfully expensive, and so any support, no matter how small, is very much appreciated. […]

Share this…FacebookTwitterBy Kirye and Pierre Gosselin It’s been a particularly mild winter in Europe this year. But that hasn’t changed the long-term trend over the past 30 years. Now that the February 2020 data have been coming in, we plot the mean February temperatures for some countries in Europe. Sweden Three of 5 stations show […]

In contrast, transitions from croplands and urban centers to forests leads to cooling. Europe has been cooling recently (1992-2015) from land cover transitions to forests. Image Source: […]
