Fake Global Warming Update: scientists withdraw journal claims of rising sea levels

Guardian:

Scientists have been forced to withdraw a study on projected sea level rise due to global warming after finding mistakes that undermined the findings.

The study, published in 2009 in Nature Geoscience, one of the top journals in its field, confirmed the conclusions of the 2007 report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). It used data over the last 22,000 years to predict that sea level would rise by between 7cm and 82cm by the end of the century.

At the time, Mark Siddall, from the Earth Sciences Department at the University of Bristol, said the study "strengthens the confidence with which one may interpret the IPCC results". The IPCC said that sea level would probably rise by 18cm-59cm by 2100, though stressed this was based on incomplete information about ice sheet melting and that the true rise could be higher.

In a statement the authors of the paper said: "Since publication of our paper we have become aware of two mistakes which impact the detailed estimation of future sea level rise. This means that we can no longer draw firm conclusions regarding 21st century sea level rise from this study without further work.

"One mistake was a miscalculation; the other was not to allow fully for temperature change over the past 2,000 years. Because of these issues we have retracted the paper and will now invest in the further work needed to correct these mistakes."

Oh No! Say it ain't so. More lying Liberal scientist caught pushing a Liberal Gia, Mother Earth, AGW religious agenda. Man all the Liberals like rdean posting here really believed in this crap. What next? Will they finally denounce the Bio-Diversity Treaty? Will they ever admit they proved evolution wrong years ago. Will they admit that most of their widely believed theories have been overturned? No. Their followers will just stick their heads back in the sand & go back to believing the world is flat even though the Bible has always said it was round.

Recognizing and admitting error IS a valid part of the scientific process.

The AGW Faithers should take notes.

Hiding and burying data and manipulating whatever is left does NOT correspond with good science, Faithers.

Those darn scientists! How dare they question global warming?! Don't they know the science is settled? They don't need investigate any more. They just need to let politicians destroy our economy to stop this growing problem.

 

[Midnight Marauder]

This means that we can no longer draw firm conclusions... without further work.

This is all I've ever asked for.

All you ever asked for? LOL

Now you are imagining the world's climate scientists are responding to your hysterical rantings and ravings?

gawd, I love the RWL @ USMB.

Fake global warming, er..... climate change
It has been all over the news. Oh wait, outside the US, the US MSM finds little interest in it
Funny how that works

What about the actual sea level rise?

That is correct. They are going to have to revisit this subject because the figures they gave for probable sea level rise are already being exceeded.

'Copenhagen Diagnosis' offers a grim update to the IPCC's climate science | Environment | guardian.co.uk

Current sea-level rise underestimated: Satellites show recent global average sea-level rise (3.4 mm/yr over the past 15 years) to be ~80 percent above past IPCC predictions. This acceleration in sea-level rise is consistent with a doubling in contribution from melting of glaciers, ice caps, and the Greenland and West-Antarctic ice-sheets

Sea-level predictions revised: By 2100, global sea-level is likely to rise at least twice as much as projected by Working Group 1 of the IPCC AR4; for unmitigated emissions it may well exceed 1 meter. The upper limit has been estimated as ~ 2 meters sea level rise by 2100. Sea level will continue to rise for centuries after global temperatures have been stabilized, and several meters of sea level rise must be expected over the next few centuries.

In fact, the IPCC report was far too conservative in almost every category.

Surging greenhouse gas emissions: Global carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels in 2008 were nearly 40 percent higher than those in 1990. Even if global emission rates are stabilized at present-day levels, just 20 more years of emissions would give a 25 percent probability that warming exceeds 2°C, even with zero emissions after 2030. Every year of delayed action increases the chances of exceeding 2°C warming.

Recent global temperatures demonstrate human-induced warming: Over the past 25 years temperatures have increased at a rate of 0.19°C per decade, in very good agreement with predictions based on greenhouse gas increases. Even over the past ten years, despite a decrease in solar forcing, the trend continues to be one of warming. Natural, short-term fluctuations are occurring as usual, but there have been no significant changes in the underlying warming trend.

Acceleration of melting of ice-sheets, glaciers and ice-caps: A wide array of satellite and ice measurements now demonstrate beyond doubt that both the Greenland and Antarctic ice-sheets are losing mass at an increasing rate. Melting of glaciers and ice-caps in other parts of the world has also accelerated since 1990.

You forget the dino civilization.
Adam and Eve were actually dino's.

The Japan site is a better possibility. At least it looks like megalithic work, no airfields.
