The least-squares linear-regression trend on the data from the RSS satellites since November 1996 shows there has been no global warming at all for 202 months (16 years 10 months). In a few more months, unless an el NiƱo comes along in January, its favorite month, RSS may be the first dataset to show 17 full years with a zero global warming trend.The nice thing about the satellite record is that it's truly global, measuring temperature all across the globe.
BUT, BUT...

The caption on the chart at the top of this article is in error. RSS does not publish a surface temperature record. You're seeing an average over several miles of altitude there.
ReplyDeleteThe error is in the Watts Up article by Viscount of Brenchley Christopher Monckton that the chart was copied from.
