Tweet In the latest rendition of Salby Tunes Eli wandered over to the Scottish Sceptic’s summary of Murry Salby’s talk in Edinburgh. The Scep did a reasonable job of summarizing the talk, which appears of a piece with Salby’s Hamburg seminar . That was well shredded by the Weasel in penance for his sins. Still, there does appear to be something new, Salby is now claiming that the increase in CO 2 mixing ratio is due to thermal decomposition of soils. Eli was feeling obscure at the time so the Bunny inquired Now Eli is but an ‘umble Rabett, innocent as the bunnies of the field, a little bunny foo foo as it were, (fair warning) and it occurs to him that there is a significant indicator of CO2 emission by combustion and not warming, contained in the Keeling curve but not much remarked upon and certainly not mentioned by the Good Dr.

Tweet Last week I listened to a Commonwealth Club podcast about Syria from early September, where I heard their invited speakers make retrospective fools of themselves as they poked fun at how the Obama Administration "boxed itself in" on chemical weapons in Syria. Hearing their predictions of a fiasco on that issue prompted me to write about my own predictions on the outcome of civil wars, which don’t seem that great.

The ice sheet experts estimates come from Bamber and Aspinall (2013). A major gap in predictive capability concerning the future evolution of the ice sheets was identified in the Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. As a consequence, it has been suggested that the AR4 estimates of future sea-level rise from this source may have been underestimated.
