Image: NASA (public domain) By Die kalte Sonne Do you remember the wild story that cold winters in Central Europe are supposedly a consequence of the Arctic turbo-heating? A great sideshow hypothesis in those years when winters were suddenly colder than expected. A study by Dai & Song 2020 has now brought the idea back to […]

A commentary titled “‘Just don’t panic – also about climate change’” by Prof. Fritz Vahrenholt appearing at German site achgut.com tells us there’s no need for panic with respect to climate change, as leading scientists dial back earlier doomsday projections. Prof. Fritz Vahrenholt. Image: GWPF No warming until 2050 Vahrenholt claims a negative Atlantic oscillation […]

Nowadays as soon as there’s any hint of some heat in the forecast, the European press immediately jump to holler a “record hot” summer is in the pipeline. Brace yourselves! A total miss For example, just last week The Weather Channel Germany warned of 40°C temperatures for Germany, probably after some model results sniffed out […]

Stefan Rahmstorf on the IPCC modelling breakdown: Reason to breathe a sigh of relief, new climate models are far too sensitive. By Die kalte Sonne (Translated by P. Gosselin) DER SPIEGEL provides a regular platform for the controversial climate scientist Stefan Rahmstorf. On 12 May 2020 he was allowed to: Stronger temperature rise: Why the […]

Scientists now acknowledge cloud cover changes “control the Earth’s hydrological cycle”, “regulate the Earth’s climate”, and “dominate the melt signal” for the Greenland ice sheet via modulation of absorbed shortwave radiation. CO2 goes unmentioned as a contributing factor. Image Source: Hahn et al., 2020 Climate modeling of factors influencing Greenland warming, surface melt have been […]

The Munich Climate Conference 2019 By Dr. Andreas Mueller (Summarized by P. Gosselin) Last weekend the climate conference by the Germany-based European Institute for Climate and Energy EIKE took place in Munich, despite threats by leftist radicals. More than a dozen leading international climate experts presented views that severely challenge mainstream alarmist climate science. 1. […]

Observational uncertainty, errors, biases, and estimation discrepancies in longwave radiation may be 100 times larger than the entire accumulated influence of CO2 increases over 10 years. This effectively rules out clear detection of a potential human influence on climate. The anthropogenic global warming (AGW) hypothesis rides on the fundamental assumption that perturbations in the Earth’s […]

International and NASA solar scientists find their Total Solar Irradiance reconstruction extending to 1700 can “correlate well” with Earth’s global temperature records, including a positive net TSI trend during 1986-2008. A new Grand Solar Minimum is expected to commence during the 2030s. Surface climate records that have been uncorrupted by coastal (ocean-air)/urbanization biases suggest there […]

New IPCC report under doubt: models out-of-control and a new hockey stick By Die kalte Sonne [German text translated/edited by P Gosselin] IPCC authors “politically handpicked” The IPCC climate status report serves as an important reference for climate policy and public discussion. However, very few people are aware that the authors of the report are […]
