I propose that we stop using the so-called Dunning-Kruger Effect to describe those overconfident in disinformation while lacking competence in science. I think a different term is needed, and the best I can think of is the Perpetual Sophomore Effect. woodromances.blogspot.com/2024/12/the-pe…

My eulogy for one of the best comedy routines in current climate discussions, temperature.global. The site tried to use Heller's simple average of thermometer readings to calculate global temperatures and failed. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/01/rip-te…

In 2020, Happer calculated that 2xCO2 causes 2.3 C warming and an RF of 3 W/m^2, so a sensitivity of 0.76 C/m^2.

Here's what Exxon knew in 1982. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/01/what-e…

I've seen several assertions that solar cycles like Bray and Eddy cycles might somehow be responsible for warming over the last century or so, but as best I can tell, the assertions are grounded more in dishonesty than in evidence. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/04/can-br…

This should dispel some of Nikolov's crank ideas about pressure. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/04/a-simp…

A model that shows how absurd Nikolov & Zeller's model is. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/05/spurio…

This shows how nonsensical it is to think that a significant fraction of global warming (observed at 0.2°C/decade since 1970) can be explained by urban heat islands. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/05/sniff-…

How have the predictions of climate contrarians fared? It seems like 10 years after the end of the so-called "pause," it's valid to look at predictions from climate contrarians that this would continue decades into the future. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/05/how-ha…

Spencer's paper argues that UHI warming accounts for 22% of raw GHCN summer (JJA) warming trends in CONUS. With proper area weighting, this is reduced to 10%; this is reduced further if including all months. It's ~eliminated in homogenized nClimDiv & ERA5. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/05/review…

It's getting so you can't tell if its AI anymore.🤣 youtube.com/shorts/XUcUvU-…

My thoughts on Myhre's new paper that further undermines the plausibility of low-sensitivity estimates. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/06/a-new-…

By about 1900, global warming rates exceeded 10x the warming rates experienced during "rapid" deglaciation events during the Quaternary. Warming rates now exceed 20x what the Earth experiences during these glacial cycles. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/06/what-c…

Here's why there are still some glaciers left at Glacier National Park. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/07/disapp…

My thoughts on the new "Critical Review" by the "Climate Working Group," hired by the Dept of Energy. In my view, it's neither critical nor a review. It's more like Feynman's warnings about "cargo cult science." woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/07/initia…

The DOE report cites Lewis 2022's ECS paper as if it's a legitimate critique of Sherwood et al 2020. I think that's irresponsible, especially given the mistake Lewis made with the PETM. woodromances.blogspot.com/2025/08/lewis-…
