what say you about this, Cog?
#85.
And, from TerraDaily's article on this:
""Just to make things clear, we are not stating that anthropogenic [man-made] climate change won't be as bad as previously thought," said Mojib Latif, a professor at the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences in Kiel, northern Germany.
"What we are saying is that on top of the warming trend, there is a long-periodic oscillation that will probably lead to a lower temperature increase than we would expect from the current trend during the next years."
So... I still stand by my prediction that the next year with a normal-sized El Nino will set a new global temperature record. It may just set that record by a little bit, not by a wide margin. And the apparent shift to the cool phase of the PDO might possibly mean a lower frequency of El Nino events.
There you go.
