The study is written "by people not working in climatology and obviously unfamiliar with the topic and relevant data," said Stefan Rahmstorf, Head of Earth Systems at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research.

This is the logical fallacy of appeal to authority.

"It is not published in a climate journal -- this is a common avenue taken by 'climate sceptics' in order to avoid peer review by real experts in the field."

This is also appeal to authority, and it neglects to mention the possibility that climate journals might have a policy of outright rejecting skeptical papers irrespective of their scientific merit, forcing such papers to seek publication elsewhere.

"They simply ignore studies that don't fit their narrative and have come to the opposite conclusion."
