Comment on Does the Aliasing Beast Feed the Uncertainty Monster? by...
Aliasing is well understood by data acquisition, control, and signal processing engineers. The question posed by the OP was: does everyone else that manipulates sampled data understand that as well?...

Judith, I wish that the structal flaw was the greatest weakness of the IPCC. But IMHO it is not. The whole idea of the IPCC is conceptually flawed. The idea that there should be a single organisation...

I guess since the “sceptics” were trumpeting the “unreliable temperature record” so loudly, the fact that Muller has proven this to not be the case should give many of them pause for thought, meaning...

David Young, it’s important to remember Figure 1 in that paper was made by using data from only 2,000 stations. It will be different than what is gotten when all stations are used.

Zeke: Why would you think that the test that BEST ran has anything to do with checking for the effect of build on thermometers?

David, I don’t see any reason why they would try to ‘de-trend’ the AMO index. Moreover, to first order, I would not expect there to be any long-term trend in the AMO index. I tend to think that the AMO...

The graph shows 12-month moving averages with the final data point appearing to show the average of July 2009 to June 2010, so in any case it doesn’t show a comparison of 2010 anomalies. The most...
