I find it funny that we're in the 4th year for the record or runner up to the record and us warmers are losing.
Humans are stupid creatures that can't take a hint to save their own worthless lives.
You've never had the most basic class in statistics and probability. I thought you claimed to have a PhD in geology. Those two facts don't jibe well.
Increasing the Ability of an Experiment to Measure an Effect

All experimental observations are a combination of signal, the true effect of a variable on an outcome, and noise, the random error inherent in your experimental technique. When designing and analyzing experiments, the goal is to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio so that you can draw accurate conclusions. Six common means of increasing the signal-to-noise ratio are:
- Making repeated measurements of one item,
- Increasing sample size,
- Randomizing samples,
- Randomizing experiments,
- Repeating experiments, and
- Including covariates.
How Sample Size Affects the Margin of Error - dummies
The relationship between margin of error and sample size is simple: As the sample size increases, the margin of error decreases. This relationship is called an inverse because the two move in opposite directions. If you think about it, it makes sense that the more information you have, the more accurate your results are going to be (in other words, the smaller your margin of error will get). (That assumes, of course, that the data were collected and handled properly.)
4. GENERAL SAMPLING CONSIDERATIONS
4.2.1 Sampling Accuracy
- Sampling accuracy is usually expressed as a relative index in percentage form (i.e. between 0 and 100%) and indicates the closeness of a sample-based parameter estimator to the true data population value.
- When expressed as a relative index, sampling accuracy is independent of the variability of the data population, i.e. data population parameters of high variability can still be estimated with good accuracy.
- When sample size increases and samples are representative, sampling accuracy also increases. Its rate of growth, very sharp in the region of small samples, becomes slower beyond a certain sample size.
Cute bloviating. The facts are the most accurate measuring devices we have are accurate to .1 degree. Not .001. You CAN achieve greater accuracy but only within the confines of a laboratory. But never let a thing like a fact disrupt your idiocy.

That's not what they said. You're lying.Cute bloviating. The facts are the most accurate measuring devices we have are accurate to .1 degree. Not .001. You CAN achieve greater accuracy but only within the confines of a laboratory. But never let a thing like a fact disrupt your idiocy.
