Breitbart and Murdoch’s The Australian (below, but behind paywall) are the ONLY MSM to report on the above. shocking and shameful, especially when they are pushing the latest nonsense from the UN today:
8 Oct: The Australian: Graham Lloyd: Claims of 70 problems found with key temperature dataset used by climate models
Claims of 70 problems found with key temperature dataset used by climate models
An audit of the key temperature dataset used by climate models claims to have identified more than 70 problems which the Australian author said made it “unfit for global studies”.
Problems include zero degree temperatures in the Caribbean, 82 degree C temperatures in Colombia and ship based recordings taken 100km inland.
“The primary conclusion of the audit is the dataset shows exaggerated warming and that global averages are far less certain than have been claimed,” the audit paper says.
The audit is an extension of the PhD thesis by Dr John McLean awarded by James Cook University...
“One implication of the audit is that climate models have been tuned to match incorrect data, which would render incorrect their predictions of future temperatures and estimates of the human influence of temperatures.
“Another implication is that the proposal that the Paris Climate Agreement adopt 1850-1899 averages as ‘indicative’ of pre-industrial temperatures is fatally flawed”...
I sent that link to Drudge last night.
