Then call it scientific!
This contradicts the last 10 years of global cooling measurements.
Just love those studies that 'correct' earlier studies by making data up.
Wake me up when real scientists discuss the issue and not government paid flunkies.
Every time I meet a lib with a beach house, I offer to take it off their hands for pennies on dollar-— no takers yet
A 50% rise in the increase means that if the original increase was 0.5 degrees, the revised increase is 0.75 degrees.
The way the story reads, one would think that the base temperature increased 50% (which is probably the impression that they would like to create.)
So the oceans rose 30 feet instead of 20?
See, we don’t even realize that the entire population of humans was wiped out by global warming years ago. But we will, just as soon as the computer models are in-filled and statistically jack-booted. At that point, your ex-life won’t be worth crap.
Another rash of “scientifically plausible lies” - creating data to fit the agenda...
More earthquakes too!
Lying propaganda.

Weekly Standard, by Wesley J. Smith
THERE IS A SURE-FIRE WAY to make the news these days: Just issue a press release beginning with the words, “New scientific study shows,” and have it assert a conclusion that the MSM fervently want to believe—especially if the resulting story would serve to debunk or refute a Bush administration policy. Slam-dunk! Your press release will become news! You are skeptical, you say? But what other explanation is there for the decision by CBS and MSNBC.
Chalko is best described as a pseudo-scientist—
Oh, the sea level rose 3/4 of an inch instead of just 1/2 inch?
I neve met anybody who thought any 'Intergovernmental Panel on . . .' was anything but a couple of Governors or other political officers sending a couple of flunkies off on a 'Look! We're actually doing something' junket.
Next week we’ll be told “Yes but the lower ocean layers are getting colder. Stay tuned ....
I read somewhere that the ocean is our big heat sink, which the earth uses to counter global warming. I’m just wondering if the effect they are seeing is why we’ve been getting some global cooling the last few years. Ocean warming is a GOOD thing!
Hey, my guess is as good as the enviro-nazis’ guess!!
This sort of thing does not raise anyone's confidence in the ability of the standard models to predict anything.
In fact, it's quite frightening to realize that the folks whose careers are devoted to climatology are so casual about creating new data to fit their models.
Makes sense. The globular warning arguments are loosing traction in the face of real science. How to re energize the “flavor-aid” drinking base? Apply some sketchy statistical analysis (see: lies, damn lies, and statistics) to support the weak premise (mass = validity, just like in school), and voila, one has a fresh argument!

Experts: Dogs and cats living together more than any other time in history.
"An international team of researchers, including Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory climate scientist Peter Gleckler, compared climate models with improved observations that show sea levels rose by 1.5 millimeters per year in the period from 1961-2003. That equates to an approximately 2½-inch increase in ocean levels in a 42-year span.
As soon as I saw "climate models" a big red flag went up. These researchers are telling us that sea levels are rising faster than they thought. So what does that have to do with "climate models"? Beats me. I think if you want to know what the sea level is now versus what it was 42 years ago you look at the data for the last 42 years and not your model of the sea level.
Or am I just missing the point?

Since this would primarily affect places like NYC and Boston maybe it is not so bad. Drowning is not my first choice for getting the east coast enviros to shut up but it would accomplish that.
