Hard hitting global and local news
The National Weather Service expects Tidal departures: between 2 to 3 ft above astronomical Tides tonight during high tide with locally higher values, 3 to 4.5 ft above astronomical Tides Monday morning, and potential for 6 to 11 ft above Monday night into Tuesday morning . The higher end of the range relegated to the New York Harbor, western Long Island Sound and the Long Island South Shore back bays .

This, of course, attracted the flies, and who shows up but everyone’s favorite martian, the Lord Monckton, spewing as usual, and he got a pretty good press in Gibraltar before going totally off the rails as Eli hinted yesterday. So, what lit the fuse. Barry Bickmore came up with the smoking letter: The on-going campaign by the Chronicle against Al Gore and the parallel promotion of the views of Lord Monckton is hard to understand.

In addition, contributed talks are solicited, on topics that include (but are not limited to) 1) Climate as a complex dynamical system; 2) Mechanisms, magnitudes, and timescales of processes that affect climate, including greenhouse gases, aerosols, solar variability, feedbacks involving clouds, water vapor, sea ice, hydrological and carbon cycles, and ocean-atmosphere interactions; 3) Physics of proxies used to infer past climate forcings and properties for which instrumental records are unavailable; 4) Computational and statistical analyses of climate models and measurement systems. Specific areas underlying these topics include, but are not limited to, fluid dynamics, nonlinear and complex systems, gas, condensed and interfacial phase behavior, radiation/heat transfer, phase transitions, measurement science, computational physics, statistics, biophysics, chemical physics and geophysics.
