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.

Abstract: Starting with a supposition by Fourier in 1827 that atmospheric gases might trap heat from the sun, scientists in the 19th century experimentally investigated the notion that H2O and CO2 were the important heat-trapping gases.
Other 19th-century measurements were also important. The law of conservation of energy said that the heat absorbed from the sun must equal the amount of heat radiated to space, but how could anything be measured?

A Cloud Thermostat Controls the Earth’s Climate, Not Greenhouse gasses! Climate change is a myth!

John F. Clauser, 2022 Physics Nobel Laureate, Climate Change Denier |
Abstract: The IPCC and its collaborators have been tasked with computer modeling
and observationally measuring two very important numbers – the Earth’s
so-called power im
balance, and its power-balance feedback-stability
strength. They have grossly botched both tasks, in turn, leading them to
draw the wrong conclusion.
I assert that the IPCC has not proven global warming! On the contrary,
observational data are fully consistent with no global warming. Without
global warming, there is no climate-change crisis!

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.

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).
