The connection between orbital mechanics, solar variability and climate is complex.| Andy May Petrophysicist
By Andy May The Oceanic Niño Index or ONI is NOAA’s primarily indicator for monitoring the sea surface temperature (SST) anomaly in the critical Niño 3.4 region. It is a 3-month running mean of ERS…| Andy May Petrophysicist

Now that the dangerous climate change myth has been discredited, the stories about the people, both the villains and the heroes, behind the scenes are more interesting.| Andy May Petrophysicist

By Andy May As seen in the first post of this series the AMO (Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation) and the WHWP (Western Hemisphere Warm Pool) area are the two climate oscillations that explain most …| Andy May Petrophysicist
By Andy May Introduction to the “Climate Oscillations” series My last two posts, Musings on the AMO and The Bray Solar Cycle and AMO were fun to research and write, and they helped show that solar …| Andy May Petrophysicist
Did the Bray Solar Cycle play a role in the recent warming of North Atlantic sea surface temperatures?| Andy May Petrophysicist
By Andy May We hear a lot about the AMO, or the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation. How much does it influence the global mean surface temperature or GMST? Exactly what is the AMO? These are the iss…| Andy May Petrophysicist
How accurate are the NOAA and Hadley Centre sea surface temperature corrections?| Andy May Petrophysicist
By Andy May This post can be read in German here. The global average SST (Sea Surface Temperature) is a very important component of the global average surface temperature for the simple reason that…| Andy May Petrophysicist
By Andy May Christian Freuer has translated this post into German here. This is the first post of a seven-part series on bias in the IPCC AR6 report, here are links to the other six parts: 2. Model…| Andy May Petrophysicist
By Andy May In my last post I plotted the NASA CO2 and the HadCRUT5 records from 1850 to 2020 and compared them. This was in response to a plot posted on twitter by Robert Rohde implying they corre…| Andy May Petrophysicist

by Javier Vinós & Andy May “On the other hand, I think I can safely say that nobody understands climate change.” J. Vinós, paraphrasing Richard Feynman’s words about quantum mechanics. For thos…| Andy May Petrophysicist
by Javier Vinós & Andy May “These shifts are associated with significant changes in global temperature trend and in ENSO variability. The latest such event is known as the great climate s…| Andy May Petrophysicist
By Andy May Tinus Pulles critique of our paper begins by admitting that, at present there are no adverse effects from climate change, but that we ignored possible future climate change effects. Thi…| Andy May Petrophysicist

Does storminess (extreme weather) go up as global temperature increases like the IPCC says? Or does it go down as the data says? Plus, a summary of my criticism of the AR6 WGI report.| Andy May Petrophysicist
