Pasteur's quadrant is a classification of scientific research projects that seek fundamental understanding of scientific problems, while also having immediate use for society. Louis Pasteur's research is thought to exemplify this type of method, which bridges the gap between "basic" and "applied" research.The term was introduced by Donald Stokes in his book, Pasteur's Quadrant.

th


The result is three distinct classes of research:

  1. Pure basic research, exemplified by the work of Niels Bohr, early 20th century atomic physicist.
  2. Pure applied research, exemplified by the work of Thomas Edison, inventor.
  3. Use-inspired basic research, described here as "Pasteur's Quadrant".
Notice the conspicuously blank lower left quadrant. The originator must have been prescient. Over the years, a new sort of "sciency" individual has emerged to fill in that conspicuous blank. Their numbers are legion, but there exists a face to put there as representative of the entire group.

Unfortunately for human kind, far to much of what passes for science today originates from those who are the founding members of the Nye Quadrant. The "science" that comes from this quadrant, and those who support that science are easily identifiable by the characteristics they exhibit.

  • Second order belief – allegiance to consensus. Individual has not done primary research on the relevant topic or has not conducted an independent assessment of the evidence and research.
  • Shutting down scientific debate; science as dogma
  • Alarmism as a tactic to influence the public debate
  • Political activism and advocacy for particular policy solutions
  • Scientism: a demand that science dictate public policy
  • Advocacy Research

The first bullet point is the primary identifying characteristic wherever the topic of science is discussed. These individuals belonging to the Nye quadrant pledge allegiance daily to whatever consensus they believe exists, and clearly have not conducted any sort of independent assessment of the evidence and the research as evidenced by their fanatic belief in what they call mainstream science coupled with their complete inability to produce even a single shred of observed, measured, quantified, evidence in support of those same beliefs.

Sell the Sizzle, Not the Steak

The formerly empty quadrant was also filled by Hollywood Science: wild and impossible speculations derived from flimsy bases in real science.
 
Thread summary:

Deniers can't discuss actual science, so they're deflecting by pouting about media personalities. At least they're broadening their horizons, and pouting about someone other than Gore.

Have you asked Curry how much fossil fuel money her mysterious "forecasting company" is taking? You know, the one that doesn't name any clients, or show anything that it's "forecast". It sure looks like a way to take fossil fuel cash on the sly. Curry hasn't done any actual science for a long time, because she can't. She fled the science field in disgrace over her failures and unethical behavior, and now she's embarking on a new career as a paid propagandist.

LOL

Another Mantooth fail!

Your projection of YOUR failures is stunning...

So now you mad you have the three stooges in the media?


Why Judith remains classy and to her science..

Nye is not retarded (and you're a complete dick for using the term as an insult), he has a masters degree in Mechanical Engineering - so vastly more educated than are you. And he doesn't lie about his education as do you, so you calling him a liar just doesn't work. What Nye says about the climate and global warming is all backed up by the thousands of published research papers that form the foundation of the consensus opinion: the world is getting warmer and human GHG emissions are primarily to blame.

Again, let me repeat: YOU are the liar and until you are willing to speak honestly about yourself, your opinion re the honesty of others is absolutely worthless.

Thousands of published papers without the first piece of actual observed, measured, quantified evidence supporting AGW over natural variability...so what?

"Consensus" is not science, Warmer Boy
 
Would anyone here pay money for a Curry "forecast"? Of course they wouldn't. She's been consistently wrong on everything for years, and nobody is going to pay for failure, not even deniers. She's as capable of an accurate forecast as an astrologer or TheOldFarmersAlmanac.

Nobody who is paying Curry for "forecasts" gives a damn about those "forecasts". They're paying her so she can continue her career as propaganda-spouting shill. The forecasting business is a front that makes it legal to accept the bribes.

Still beats Michael Mann, the IPCC, or James Hansen.. OR THIS guy... (Phil Jones) keeper of the lost climate data.

Nye is a MEDIA character. He did science for 10 yr olds. To compare him on any juicy science topics to ANYONE in those fields is insane.

He loses debates on GW because his underlying thesis is -- There are Too Many People on the Planet. He's an activist enviro warrior with a malignant streak of genocidal tendencies...
 
As for Curry -- she's in that top right quadrant. Always worked on the HARD stuff. The way the thermodynamics of the Earth REALLY works. Filling in those gaps of knowledge about time constants and delays and redistribution of heat.

She's STILL be doing that if she wasn't targeted and blackballed for not "singing the correct hymn" out of the GW hymnal..

Let's check what Curry predicted in 2014. This is from her blog, and restates what her 2013 "Stadium Waves" paper predicts.

2014 → 2015

"In terms of global temperature, I expect the hiatus to continue at last another decade, but won’t pretend to predict year to year variations"

First, that flops hard because it talks about a fictional 'hiatus' that never existed.

But even worse, it was followed by 3 consecutive years of record-breaking temperatures. It would be hard to fail harder than Curry failed there. The opposite of what she predicted happened. So, has she revised her failed theory? Nope. She just cut and ran.

She's STILL be doing that if she wasn't targeted and blackballed for not "singing the correct hymn" out of the GW hymnal..

And by "blackballed" you mean ... what? People pointed out her science predicted the opposite of reality? The nerve! They're supposed to be more PC than that!

Curry has been treated with kid gloves. On her side, she's flung accusations of fraud at fellow scientists, with zero evidence to back it up. That just isn't done, not by ethical people. Her behavior has been consistently vile.
 
Of course the hiatus existed. YOU are a denier.. :banana: Go look it up in the INdex of IPCC AR5..

And a hiatus can be of any real length actually. And even with an intervening El Nino (very large) -- all that thermodynamics that Curry was working on is STILL unwinding. Just like her "Stadium Wave" analogy..

So keep your pants and your tin foil hat on there Mr. Denial.. Climate takes its sweet ass time to work things out. It's NOT on a political cycle you know...
