Shock News : “U.S. Agencies Accused of Fudging Data to Show Global Warming”

The data doesn’t matter. We’re not basing our recommendations
on the data. We’re basing them on the climate models

– Prof. Chris Folland,
Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction and Research

It doesn’t matter what is true,
it only matters what people believe is true

co-founder of Greenpeace

“As we all know, this isn’t about truth at all, its about plausibly deniable accusations.”

By tampering with the data, NOAA and NASA destroy the ability of scientists to see what is actually going on with the climate.

Important study on temperature adjustments: ‘homogenization…can lead to a significant overestimate of rising trends of surface air temperature.’

Posted on January 29, 2014 by 

From the “we told you so” department comes this paper out of China that quantifies many of the very problems with the US and global surface temperature record we have been discussing for years: the adjustments add more warming than the global warming signal  itself

A paper just published in Theoretical and Applied Climatology finds that the data homogenization techniques commonly used to adjust temperature records for moving stations and the urban heat island effect [UHI] can result in a “significant” exaggeration of warming trends in the homogenized record.

The effect of homogenization is clear and quite pronounced. What they found in China is based on how NOAA treats homogenization of the surface temperature record.

According to the authors:

“Our analysis shows that “data homogenization for [temperature] stations moved from downtowns to suburbs can lead to a significant overestimate of rising trends of surface air temperature.”
