Climate watch: 2012 figures confirm global warming still stalled

Re: Trust the satellite data

Interesting you link to a version on Roy Spencer's site as he does have an axe to grind, he may be a physicist but he is also a creationist and very much against the AGW theory.

But go on use that Mk1 eyeball..notice how before 1998 most of the graph sits below the mean, and after 1998 above the mean? Particularly since the mean includes the above average period since 1998 (i.e. the mean is higher and thus the anomaly lower because of the inclusion of period of raised temperatures). Anyone still think nothing has happened since 1998?

Global warming still stalled since 1998, WMO Doha figures show

Re: What about Mars?

The 'Mars is warming' claim is just another piece of diversionary rubbish, there is no evidence that is happening. We can't take temperature measurements, the whole myth is based on two photos that looked different.

cue cries of 'so we don't have evidence that it's NOT happening...'

Stats 101

Still picking out individual years and comparing them rather than looking at trends I see...standard stuff for the doubters

Have an umbrella with your cherry.

Arctic freshening not due to ice melt after all, says NASA

Let's be clear about one thing...

...this study does NOT say that sea ice isn't melting, indeed if you follow the link to the summary it says it took place "during a time of record reductions in ice extent from 2005 to 2008".

So this does nothing and says nothing to prove or disprove AGW, it only says that melting sea ice is not the major factor in freshwater distribution.
