Here's the New York Times:
The study finds that the rise in ocean heat (and temperature) in recent decades is far faster than anything seen earlier in the Holocene, the period since the end of the last ice age. But the researchers say that this rise is from a relatively cool baseline.You really can't make this up. Of course, this is the real story:
The article itself presents a Holocene temperature reconstruction that is very much at odds both with Marcott et al 2013 and Mann et al 2008. And, only a few weeks after IPCC expressed great confidence in the non-worldwideness of the Medieval Warm Period, Rosenthal et al 2013 argued that the Little Ice Age, Medieval Warm Period and Holocene Optimum were all global events.The whole thing is simply absurd.
It's like the NYT headline joke:

Yep, reality sucks... And the scientists hate it when you present them with reality and it doesn't match their pretty little models...

ReplyDeleteHey, Old NFO, this scientist loves it when reality contradicts his models. It's the only time you actually learn something ;-)
Looks like we could use a little more global warming from any source.
