Monckton of Brenchley , Edinburgh  A: In the early days of weather observations, there was rather poor coverage of the world, and most thermometers were in Europe and North America, and they were not necessarily well-sited using standardised enclosures. Interpreting the early data is therefore not straightforward, as there are various possible biases in the observations that should properly be allowed for, and there are also problems in dealing with the non-uniform spatial coverage. Several groups routinely produce and maintain long-term estimates of global and regional temperature, and they all try to manage these difficulties in different ways
Tweet While copy-editing a paper, Eli was looking for the APS (American Physical Society) style manual, but fortunately Google knew better and delivered him to the APS style manual , but a different APS, and not for authors, but instructions to the copy editors, including this gem The Angry Author Sometimes you will encounter an author who, despite best efforts, intractably insists on something outrageous or is just a nasty, hostile person.

Eli Prof. Curry, perhaps you would be kind enough to reconcile the claim in your written testimony that increasing Antarctic sea ice extent as reported in the AR5 WGI report weakens the case for attributing most of the warming to human influences can be reconciled with your 2010 PNAS paper, Accelerated warming of the Southern Ocean and its impacts on the hydrological cycle and sea ice the abstract of which reads: The observed sea surface temperature in the Southern Ocean shows a substantial warming trend for the second half of the 20th century. Associated with the warming, there has been an enhanced atmospheric hydrological cycle in the Southern Ocean that results in an increase of the Antarctic sea ice for the past three decades through the reduced upward ocean heat transport and increased snowfall
It’s from his blog post . He seems to think the hand covering his mouth belongs to Michael Mann, but it’s actually his lawyer’s. Didn’t work though, so his legal analyst team appears to have had enough:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â They can quit him, it turns out, and the blog post is an indication why.
