Even if global warming is real - and it probably is, a little - now
link the trends to rise in CO2, and find that really there is no
correlation at all.
In o0ther words the best description of the last 5- years of climate is
that it may have warmed slightly, but it\'s not linked to CO2.

You can get more record temps if you have way more 24/7 temp sensors
everywhere than we used to. Which we sure do.

But the \'record\' temps are only certified for the cross-checked network stations that
are standardized and certified. There\'s no number-of-sensors exreme effect for these
stations, because the ones that don\'t agree are decertified.

Once before when you made that claim, it was specific to a station in Portland with about 80 years
in service.

It\'s like covid case counts. Test a lot more and get a lot more
positives.

Which is why we quote percentages on testing. You seem to be making up possible
confusions, but not real ones.

The planet has been warming gently since the end of the LIA. And
that\'s good.

The \'LIA\' was not global. The nonspecific \'gently\' sounds good, but \'good\' doesn\'t reflect
increased hurricane/tornado/fire/drought/crop-failure events.

> More CO2 is good too.
More than what? Where\'s the optimal level, and why is it optimal?
CO2 acidifies rain; have you no investment in concrete
foundations, or mortared brickwork?

Complimentary. The complementary explanation would be that John Larkin isn\'t an engineer - he does have an engineering degree from Tulane, but what he has said about his course work there does make it sound rather like a diploma mill.

Not so. Maximum-reading thermometers are not a new invention, the older
stations were completely capable of noting peaks and troughs as well
as periodic status. The \'hundred years\' figure does predate airport
readings, but not those of other facilities which were also widespread.

Temperatures aren\'t volatile; except for windshifts, they move predictably up
during the day, down at night, and the peaks and troughs WERE representative
of the entire diurnal excursion.

It\'s like covid case counts. Test a lot more and get a lot more
positives.

It\'s a big public deal? So? The decisions we make aren\'t informed
by those raw numbers, if we can digest those and increase the significance.
I can do so. Can\'t you? Trump, if we can believe some of the things
he said, couldn\'t.

Meaning, that record highs (peaks) are less important than averages? So what?
The averages are climbing alarmingly, also. The \'reflection of global trends\' is
completely accessible, and there\'s cute color-coded visuals for the innumerate...

Here\'s the world: <https://showyourstripes.info/s/globe>
.... and it has no particular measurement-multiplicity skew.

As to \'sitings change\', that\'s what weather models are for; a model that fits the world can
be fitted to old station observations or new ones, and gets consistent results, so it FILLS IN THE GAPS.
Direct measurement of all points on earth, and centuries-of-data for single points, are amusing but
hardly important.

It is not stupid. It is simple maths. If you have 90 sensors out in the
countryside and 10 in the city and the city ones are known to show
higher temperatures (a Heat Island effect), then adding 10 more in the
city and 10 more in the countryside will cause the average to rise, even
if the temperatures don\'t change.

Start with 10 in the city (reading an average of 22°C and 90 in the
countryside (reading an average of 20°C) and you have an average of 22.2°C.

Add 10 in the city and 10 in the countryside and the average (assuming
nothing else changes) becomes 20.33 °C

As I\'ve said, the figures may be corrected for this, but do we know? How
certain are we that the correction is itself correct?

Similarly, we are told that satellite temperature mapping is highly
accurate, but again we are comparing to figures from before such
accuracy was available. Can we be sure that the period that such
detailed mapping has been available for is long enough to cover any
normal fluctuations that were there, but not noticeable in pre-satellite
figures? To what level of certainty?

I\'m not arguing that the figures and comparisons are wrong, only that
there is scope for skewing of the figures ... in either direction.

It may well be that there is no problem and that either the points
distribution has increased in proportion or corrections have been
made for a disproportionate increase, but I have no idea.

This part, you got spot on. The rest is gibberish.

Readings are not skewed by local fixtures.

Have you never heard of Heat Islands? Towns and cities are known to be
typically 2 to 3 °C warmer than the countryside. The readings of sensors
will therefore be affected by their location.

It is not stupid. It is simple maths. If you have 90 sensors out in the
countryside and 10 in the city and the city ones are known to show
higher temperatures (a Heat Island effect), then adding 10 more in the
city and 10 more in the countryside will cause the average to rise, even
if the temperatures don\'t change.

Yes, of course that IS stupid. Averages are weighted. No matter how many
stations are in a square mile, that square mile gets ONE vote, just like every other
square mile. Maybe the precision of a city\'s \'heat island\' gets better because
of the multiple samples, but its weight in the average is less than the one
sensor in a hundred square miles of tundra: that one sensor in the tundra gets
a hundred votes, effectively.

Heat island or not, the city deserves its vote. Leaving out the city for some
frivolous reason, would not be consistent with a true average.

Average of measurements is not done by arbitrary list-of-numbers processing
like one learns in elementary school.

As I\'ve said, the figures may be corrected for this, but do we know? How
certain are we that the correction is itself correct?

We can be uninformed, true. The climate warming effect has been an
active topic since the 1970s, well-studied and confirmed in the early 1990s,
and no one doing weather/climate modeling and averages is uninformed today.

FFS do some math and stop with the conspiracy shit and the shit from
conspiracy web sites.

1.If the world was cooling then the number of record high temperatures
set every year would be rapidly dropping every year.

You can get more record temps if you have way more 24/7 temp sensors
everywhere than we used to. Which we sure do.

It\'s like covid case counts. Test a lot more and get a lot more
positives.

The planet has been warming gently since the end of the LIA. And
that\'s good.

More CO2 is good too.


Don\'t be thick! I am talking about using records that exist for long
periods of time (relative to human log keeping of course), collected by
professional meterolical services and I mentioned that specifcally (old
records), and they show temperatures are rising.
