The 58 year old pause

Posted on 5 April 2016 by Scottish-Sceptic

Josh had a great tweet today:

Which took me by surprise as I’d just been speaking to Josh about the same article. But yes! I suppose technically, although I’ve not checked the data myself, the meteorological balloon data does seem to show around 58 years of pause:

Figure-6

A combination of some old balloon data which Tony found in an old publication (oh how the alarmists must hate these old publications) and recent balloon data which corroborates the lack of recent warming seen by the satellites.


That’s a massive jump. The pause is less starting into adulthood, and closer to being an OAP.

    The composite graph by Tony Heller (who uses a pseudonym of Stephen Goddard for his online blog) is a fraudulent fabrication since it is comparing two different types of observations. Here are the COMPLETE historical radiosonde (weather balloon) temperature anomalies for the lowest 1/2 of the atmosphere.

    Bill, first, Tony makes it clear the two graphs are different and so accusation that its “fraudulent” on that basis is totally unwarranted.
    And the key question is why haven’t we seen the earlier meteorological balloon data? The only explanation I can see is because it doesn’t support the bogus warming graph that you link to on your blog.
