[Watts Up With That?] RFP's and the sad state of climate science funding | Watts Up With ...: The proposal submitted by the scientist to the funding agency would be very short (e.g., one page), and be subjected to a nominal review and a pass/fail criterion: does this proposal seem worthwhile? The level of subsistence would be set low enough to eliminate greed (or complacency on the part of the recipient), high enough to allow scientists adequate funds to carry on a viable research program free of financial stresses.

[Climate Audit] Comments on Mother Jones « Climate Audit: So wrote the celebrated Stanford University psychologist Leon Festinger (PDF), in a passage that might have been referring to climate change denial””the persistent rejection, on the part of so many Americans today, of what we know about global warming and its human causes.

[Collide-a-scape » Collide-a-scape >> Keith Kloor's Blog >> Where Nature and Culture Intersect] Collide-a-scape » Blog Archive » Collide-a-scape >> Whose Team Are ...: It’s where you go much beyond a few poor emails by one individual over a decade that the Mosher/Fuller/Montford/etc case falls apart rapidly, and you can see a bit of that in the first Deltoid link I provided (along with a look at Fuller’s zealotry).  They claim the emails are a great tempest that swamps conventional wisdom on climate change, as seedy as what happened on Wall Street, shatters trust, and as a result (depending on which audience Mosher is speaking to it seems), there is no science.  The various nonpartisan inquiries don’t agree with their conclusions, nor does any objective look at the issue.  SM/TF have perpetuated a (well-received among some circles) narrative and have worked to fix the facts around it.  There’s not a genuine desire on their part to understand anything.  One can see this in Mosher’s suggested questions for Mann, some of which amount to “when did you stop beating your wife” style of questioning.

[Climate Realists] Climate Change And Extreme Weather Events by Stephen Wilde: LLB ...: Starting with first principles it does seem likely that something as significant as a change in global temperature TREND really ought to be discernible somehow on a day to day basis. After all, weather continuing over time IS climate.

[Watts Up With That?] New study: Earth may be able to recover from rising carbon dioxide ...: From what I understand, aren’t the Mauna Loa measurements only detecting about half the CO2 in the atmosphere expected based upon the fossile fuel combustion. If that is the case, wouldn’t it be much more prudent to first sort out the mass balance and find the sink (likely in the oceans, precipitating out as carbonate minerals) and then try to figure out what might happen in 30K years?

[The EcoWho RSS News Feed] - Bishop Hill blog - SciTech hearings on peer review: During the Climategate whitewashes, it was suggested that peer review is the place for exclusive publication and FOI may bypass that. If the ICO does not rule on UEA's breach of it's agreement for Steve McIntyre's request, and the peer review inquiry gets a similar coat of whitewash, then climate scientists will be free to carry on BAU and exclude publishing 'intellectual property'

[The Blackboard] The Blackboard » Reviewer outs himself!: Box’s review, given his comment “A documented campaign of climate change denialism, of which the authors Frauenfeld, Knappenberger, Michaels are a documented part, seeks to undermine the well-established science that demonstrates unequivocally the reality of anthropogenic climate change, characterized by global warming among other changes in the climate system.” Surely the question is whether the authors are presenting factual information in context, not their putative membership in a putative campaign.
