So....what do you have to say about all the warmists stating that the temps have been flat for 16 years? Enquiring minds really want to know how you wrap your head around that fact.
I saw the latest from Hanson which showed 10 years, not 16? Can you explain??
Jim Hanson: Global Warming Standstill. The 5-year running mean of global temperature has been flat for
the past decade. It should be noted that the "standstill" temperature is at a much higher level than existed
at any year in the prior decade except for the single year 1998, which had the strongest El Nino of the
century. However, the standstill has led to a widespread assertion that "global warming hasstopped".
Examination of this matter requires consideration of the principal climate forcing mechanisms that can
drive climate change and the effects of stochastic (unforced) climate variability.
