From Spencer himself citing his partner in crime Christy:Thanks for that. It is interesting that Spencer of UAH made a prediction back in January that he wouldn't be asked to peer review the upcoming paper. Odd that the only other team making a satellite temperature product is not asked for their expert input.
On the Divergence Between the UAH and RSS Global Temperature Records « Roy Spencer, PhD
Anyway, my UAH cohort and boss John Christy, who does the detailed matching between satellites, is pretty convinced that the RSS data is undergoing spurious cooling because RSS is still using the old NOAA-15 satellite which has a decaying orbit, to which they are then applying a diurnal cycle drift correction based upon a climate model, which does not quite match reality.
So RSS corrects for the decaying satellite orbit that even Spencer and Christy say they must do, and BigotBarf accuses them of cheating, and denier assholes mindlessly parrot it in a public forum while other morons thank them! :cuckoo"
