The Thumb on the Scale

Howard “Cork” Hayden, Prof. Emeritus of Physics, UConn, corkhayden@comcast.net |
Abstract: The dinosaurs lived when the average global temperature was 6ºC to 10ºC warmer than it is now, so you might think that there has been some climate change since that time. According to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), you would be wrong.

Screaming About Climate Disaster

Howard “Cork” Hayden, Prof. Emeritus of Physics, UConn, corkhayden@comcast.net |
Abstract: The Stefan-Boltzmann (S-B) law gives the relationship between temperature and infrared radiation for planetary bodies. If researchers do not apply it when making predictions about increasing Earth’s temperature, they are negligent. A science journal refereed or not, that published the model result without that calculation is also negligent. Suffice it to say that the IPCC has never—repeat NEVER—applied the S-B law to their predicted temperatures.

IPCC’s Exercise in Self-Contradiction
24-Feb-23
|
Howard (Cork) Hayden, PhD |
Abstract: This presentation uses intellectual jiu-jitsu.
•
It uses IPCC’s analysis and data against IPCC’s analysis and data.
•
With apologies to giants in our field (many at this conference), I ignore their better data because the jiu-jitsuparadigm requires sticking with IPCC data.

In Science, Data Trumps Theory
Correcting Errors in Science

Thomas P. Sheahen, Phd |
Abstract: Any Theory must conform to data or it will be dismissed
Feynman’s famous aphorism: -- It doesn’t matter how smart you are or how beautiful your theory is; if it doesn’t agree with experiment, it’s WRONG !
Data, not theory is the cornerstone of
the Scientific Method.
This has been true for centuries.

Giga, Tera, Peta, ExaFlops and Climate Models
Two Articles within the monthly newsletter The Energy Advocate
17-Sep-23
|
Howard “Cork” Hayden, Prof. Emeritus of Physics, UConn, corkhayden@comcast.net |
Abstract: First article: Giga, Tera, Peta, ExaFlops
The heading of this article does not refer to Broadway shows that failed.
The mass of the sun is about 2,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 ...
2nd article: Climate Models
To predict tomorrow’s weather, you begin with today’s weather and then apply laws of physics. Small uncertainties in the data lead to small uncertainties in the prediction for tomorrow, but larger uncertainties in the prediction for the next day.

S. Fred Singer |
Abstract: Letter to the Editor Wall Street Journal, submitted Oct 3, 2014.
Contrary to the Santer-Stocker letter (WSJ Oct 2), the climate models used by the UN-IPCC in its five Assessment Reports (AR) since 1990 have failed miserably in their persistent attempts to demonstrate evidence for AGW (anthropogenic global warming).
