POPSNew Exoplanet Is Near Habitable Zone more: If this Jupiter-like planet has a moon, that satellite’s rocky surface could be habitable, says Sara Seager of MIT. But a planetary system closer to Earth would offer a better chance of searching for the tiny gravitational tug of such a moon, Seager adds. “This discovery adds weight to the fact that we know that planets often orbit in or close to the habitable zone, so we should not be surprised when the Kepler or COROT satellites or some ground-based search makes the claim for the first habitable Earth or super-Earth,” comments Alan Boss of the Carnegie Institution for Science in Washington, D.C. Nevertheless, finding such a planet is encouraging news, Seager says, because “where there is gold dust there might be a gold mine.”

POPSRegional Rainfall in a Warming World What is especially striking is how relatively small changes in temperature have such big impacts on rainfall. " Such a high sensitivity to ocean surface temperature is because the temperature change is amplified by changes in moisture in the atmosphere, strongly affecting atmospheric stability and convection," said Xie.

POPSAGW-hysteria is based on fraud all three terrestrial global-temperature data sets (by NOAA/National Climatic Data Center, NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies and the University of East Anglia) really rely on the same measures of surface temperatures. These three sources do not provide independent measures of how the world's temperatures have changed over time. The relatively small differences that do arise from these three institutions result from how they adjust the raw data.

POPSWorld May Not Be Warming, Say Scientists (Ya think?)
.... which have been used to collect temperature data over the past 150 years. These stations, they believe, have been seriously compromised by factors such as urbanisation, changes in land use and, in many cases, being moved from site to site. Christy has published research papers looking at these effects in three different regions: east Africa, and the American states of California and Alabama. “The story is the same for each one,” he said. “The popular data sets show a lot of warming but the apparent temperature rise was actually caused by local factors affecting the weather stations, such as land development.” The experience turned him into a strong critic and he has since published a research paper questioning its methods. (Ross McKitrick, professor of economics at the University of Guelph, Canada) “We concluded, with overwhelming statistical significance, that the IPCC’s climate data are contaminated with surface effects from industrialisation ....

POPSAll planets experience climate change All planets experience climate change. Nasa scientists recorded Mars warming by 0.5C since the 1970s, which is similar to the warming experienced on Earth over the same period. In the Red Planet's case, strong winds are thought to have stirred up giant dust storms, trapping heat and raising Mars' temperature.

POPSClimate Flimflam Flaming Out The NASA agency uses data from "sites in relatively warmer places, including more southerly locations, or sites closer to airports, cities or the sea -- which has a warming effect on winter weather." In a paper published on the Science and Public Policy Institute Web site, D'Aleo and Smith say the "NOAA ... systematically eliminated 75% of the world's stations with a clear bias toward removing higher-latitude, high-altitude and rural locations, all of which had a tendency to be cooler.

POPSClimategate - Manipulating the Data “NOAA . . . systematically eliminated 75% of the world’s stations with a clear bias towards removing higher latitude, high altitude and rural locations, all of which had a tendency to be cooler,” the authors say. “The thermometers in a sense, marched towards the tropics, the sea, and to airport tarmacs.”

POPSLast decade was the warmest ever, says NASA | Grist The U.S. space agency also found that 2009 was the second-warmest year on record since modern temperature measurements began in 1880. Last year was only a small fraction of a degree cooler than 2005, the warmest yet, putting 2009 in a virtual tie with the other hottest years, which have all occurred since 1998.

POPSCrooked Climatologists Drop “Cold” Weather Stations In A Year Absent any public statement from climatolgists for such a strange act, I can only speculate that this a deliberate attempt to cause an artificial warming of the data set. I can think of no other valid scientific reason. Would someone please ask GCHN to make a public statement as to why they tried to secretly “lose” weather stations when surely more data is better than less?

POPSJUNK SCIENCE revisited There are no common physical laws between the warming phenomenon in glass houses and the fictitious atmospheric greenhouse effects, (b) there are no calculations to determine an average surface temperature of a planet, (c) the frequently mentioned difference of 33 degrees Celsius is a meaningless number calculated wrongly, (d) the formulas of cavity radiation are used inappropriately, (e) the assumption of a radiative balance is unphysical, (f) thermal conductivity and friction must not be set to zero, the atmospheric greenhouse conjecture is falsified.

POPSBamboo Flooring Bamboo flooring(http://www.floorproducer.com) must be delivered and acclimated inside the home for at least 7 days prior to installation (areas with great seasonal climate change should allow an additional 7 days, for a total of 14 days acclimation). The heating system must be turned off before installation. The concrete slab should be sealed 24 hours prior to installation with a layer of Bostik’s Best glue. The bamboo flooring(http://www.floorproducer.com) should be glued directly to the slab also using Bostik’s Best glue. Maximum surface temperature should not exceed 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Expect: slight heating-season shrinkage, and slight expansion during seasons when the heating is not used.
