Looking at how the average of the yearly mean temperature is actually calculated. It meas that an increase in that value comes from a cooler summer, not as cold winters and a longer growing season. Global warming is not happening, this proves it.

  • Since you cannot update a video a new one has been posted with fixes and some suggested enhancements here watch?v=vLERf-O1CJw

  • Haha, you show several graphs illustrating average temp. is increasing. Then you claim that this is in contradiction to global warming? Early springs and later falls are predicted by the global warming theory. You showed that that is happening. Longer summers mean ice sheets and glaciers have longer to melt. It also means animal behaviors will change, things such as migrations. All that is happening and has been predicted by the global warming theory. So I am not sure what your point is.

  • AGW "theory" claims so much I'm not surpized you are getting confused. If you recall one of their claims is temperature will be more extreme. More heat waves, more deep cold winters. Well, the raw data shows the exact opposite. The average going up is meaningless without the upper and lower limits and the upper and lower standard deviations. Those two sets are narrowing.

  • As far as the treerings data: they also respond very strongly to precipitation, confounding the temp. proxy-ness. Unless there is some way to back out the precip, which is very unlikely.

  • I hope those playing with temperature data understand what normals, means and extremes really mean. Every decade, the past 30 years data are averaged and the results are known as "normal." This will be so for the next decade. Thus normal changes every 10 years. This year (2010) is the end of the decade, and thus the normals will change.

  • Excellent work, keep it up!

    I've posted a blog article here with your videos: "paths to knowledge d o t n e t".

    Could you email me the slides so I can post them to the article as pictures? Thanks.

  • "same trick that homeopaths use" and what is that trick" Show me specifically where I do that.

    "If you can explain the meaning of 'homogenization' of data " and that is EXACTLY what the next video is about, should be up today.

  • jrwakefield is using the same trick that homeopaths use, to try to persuade people that anecdotal evidence, out of context, trumps statistical evidence.

    I suspect that most of you are just repeating gibberish you have read elsewhere. If you can explain the meaning of 'homogenization' of data and why you think it's wrong then I'll allow myself to be convinced otherwise.

  • I deal with this subject in the next video, should have it posted by tomorrow. It's beyond astrology, it's out right data fraud.

  • severb2008m go pick up the raw data and check it out yourself. It shows the planet is NOT heating up, the max temps are DROPPING. The trend is clear, the temperature range is narrowing. This is a fact. And you can check this out yourself and you will see the exact same thing. There is no global warming.
