The Greatest Scientic Fraud of All Time



Straight from NOAA:
The historic U.S. temperature record has been materially distorted by siting of urban weather stations.






Impacts of Small-Scale Urban Encroachment on Air Temperature Observations

Abstract (bold mine)

A field experiment was performed in Oak Ridge, TN, with four instrumented towers placed over grass at increasing distances (4, 30, 50, 124, and 300 m) from a built-up area. Stations were aligned in such a way to simulate the impact of small-scale encroachment on temperature observations. As expected, temperature observations were warmest for the site closest to the built environment with an average temperature difference of 0.31 and 0.24 °C for aspirated and unaspirated sensors respectively. Mean aspirated temperature differences were greater during the evening (0.47 °C) than day (0.16 °C). This was particularly true for evenings following greater daytime solar insolation (20+ MJDay−1) with surface winds from the direction of the built environment where mean differences exceeded 0.80 °C. The impact of the built environment on air temperature diminished with distance with a warm bias only detectable out to tower-B’ located 50 meters away.

The experimental findings were comparable to a known case of urban encroachment at a U. S. Climate Reference Network station in Kingston, RI. The experimental and operational results both lead to reductions in the diurnal temperature range of ~0.39 °C for fan aspirated sensors. Interestingly, the unaspirated sensor had a larger reduction in DTR of 0.48 °C. These results suggest that small-scale urban encroachment within 50 meters of a station can have important impacts on daily temperature extrema (maximum and minimum) with the magnitude of these differences dependent upon prevailing environmental conditions and sensing technology.




You read that off Watt's site, and you didn't bother to question whether the authors believe their results call into question global warming. You C&Ped the abstract, just like Watt did. How about you show us the publication in it's entirety? I would have for you, except I don't have access to the Journal of Applied Meteorology and Climatology through my credentials.
 


The whole goddamn "dangerous anthropogenic climate change" delusion is fucking crap.


It ain't even close to being science. At best, it's pseudoscience. At worst, it's shite embraced by the modern day equivalent of superstitious medieval peasants.

Get a blog, dipshit.

But it all makes perfect sense from a political standpoint if the goal is to increase taxes, redistribute wealth, and limit individual freedoms.
 
Let’s take a look at sea level rise from polar ice caps and glaciers melting. On the small scale, We could think of it as filling a glass of water and putting ice cubes in it. But the Earth is much bigger, so you’d have to put those ice cube in a bath tub. Since the ice is already in the water, the water is already displaced. Even if the ice melts, the rise in water level is negligible at best. So in the real world an iceberg’s largest mass is already under water. Most science nuts know that water expands roughly 9% when it freezes. Theoretically, if it were to melt, the volume area would be less.

Bottom line, you’d have to set off a nuke or two in Antarctica to melt the ice at a fast enough rate to see a noticeable rise in sea levels around the world, not just in the Atlantic, India, or Pacific Ocean.

Now, if you wanna talk about green house gases raising temperatures. That’s fine. Just know that ice reflects sunlight. Even if the gasses did raise world wide temperatures by 2-3 degrees it doesn’t convince me that raising the negative/below zero temperature is enough to melt shit. Again, the rate at which it would melt is questionable on how long it would take to raise the sea level on a global scale.

So to all the tree huggers worried about rising sea levels: fuck you and the global warming bullshit. The rate at which the sea levels would rise is probably slow enough for Humans to move further inland and time for marine ecosystems to adapt.

Snap, crackle, and pop.

We (humanity) pump out billions (trilions?) of gallons of oil and gas, then burn it.

These actions create zero reactions.

Perfect sense.


Move along. :p
 
Damn. 700 coal workers just joined the unemployment line.

Glaciers are masses of ice on land. That’s the definition of glaciers. When they melt they add to the oceans. And they’re melting like crazy.

Let take a look at the fact you’re cherry picking the shit you want.
After that, let’s take a look at subduction zones. I’m sure you know all there is to know about that. So I shouldn’t have to explain where the ocean water goes when the Earth’s plates shift.

Oh, is that another topic you’re ignorant of?

Glaciers are not bathtub ice cubes.
