A couple of months ago, when I looked at the ice-age cycle I came across something I referred to as the “Haseler gap”. This appears to be a recurring major drop in temperatures (~4C) a fixed period after the inter-glacial … Continue reading →

The leaky atmosphere hypothesis is that the earth’s atmosphere leaks away over relatively fast timescales equivalent to the ice-age cycle and that this leads to changes in pressure causing changes in global temperature as suggested heer: (overview,  calculations), Then I … Continue reading →

Dr Roy Spencer has done an interesting experiment using two containers with water above which one has a silver foil which partly obscures the container from the cold sky. This shows that water exposed to a higher radiant temperature is … Continue reading →

If you listen to the likes of the europhile BBC, you get the idea that the sun shines out the backside of the Euro, that Germany is doing Greece a favour lending it money and that Greece is just a … Continue reading →

I remember holidaying in Shetland and my son complaining about the heat. It was probably no more than 24C, but when you are used to houses heated only to 18C and its a day for stripping off and sun bathing … Continue reading →

I came across a couple of articles by Dr Roy Spencer on how greenhouse gases work and was surprised at both his answers and also the multitude of comments. There appears to be many diverse views on the theory, but … Continue reading →
