Doubling Down On Dud Projections
The IPCC’s latest suite of climate models overstate, by more than double, the actual warming in Australia from January 1979 to January 2014. This is the conclusion from expert analysis by US-based independent climate researcher Bob Tisdale.[1] At Quadrant’s request, Tisdale has now updated graphs for Australia from his 2013 book Climate Models Fail.[2]
Tisdale, with a background in fluid dynamics, has published two other e-books on climate models and global warming, and regularly contributes to the world’s top-ranking climate blog, Watts Up With That. The models’ overstated warming on a global basis is no longer contentious. As even the 5th IPCC report acknowledges, from 1998-2012 the simulations of 111 out of its 114 climate models exaggerated the global warming trend. The IPCC blames a variety of factors, including natural variability, solar, volcanic and aerosol impacts, and over-cooking of the all-important climate sensitivity to CO2 increases.[3] So much for…

Need it be said that one of the biggest and most enthusiastic lemmings is our very own climate crazies at the CSIRO?
