Surely we already discussed this paper at great length on WUWT? Very unimpressive. Extremely sparse data and many of them from lumps of trees. It seems to be entitled ‘Australasian temperature reconstruction September to January.’ Ah! The Antipodean growing season I assume? Do you really think this is impressive as a reconstruction of 1000 years of the whole climate?
Come to that anyway, a 0.6 warming in four centuries- which is the period my study covered. How long and slow is that? Put a trend line from 1650 to today-so use a proper lower axis point covering 400 years and not squeeze it into 1000- and see what you find. Youre right its not long and slow. Its long and glacially slow
