Major new analysis by Aussies show IPCC manipulated data
Another day, another problem for warmers. This is from Down Under. The Doomed Planet blog in Australia’s Quadrant discusses two work done by two Australian scientists that show manipulated data by the IPCC.
Now, however, we have a major new analysis by two Australian scientists showing that the temperature data published by the IPCC and other organisations has been manipulated to give the appearance of a warming trend – but not one that has actually occurred. In essence this analysis severely, probably fatally, damages the basis on which the IPCC and its supporters rely for their call for government intervention to reduce emissions. Needless to say, this has major international implications in regard to the policies to be adopted by countries on emissions reductions.
This analysis, undertaken by William Kininmonth (former Deputy Head of the Bureau of Meteorology and head of that body’s Climate Centre) – and physicist Dr Tom Quirk, shows that temperatures published for both Australia and the world by the IPCC, whose main source has been the Climate Research Unit at East Anglia University, derive from an averaging over ten years intervals. As shown below in graphed form, this method of presentation gives the appearance of a steady upward trend. However, the presentation of temperatures based on annual averages by Messrs Kininmonth and Quirk give no such appearance and highlight the irregularities. This analysis has been drawn to the attention of the Prime Minister and Leader of the Opposition and it has been suggested that it confirms the need for a major independent inquiry before any government action is taken to reduce emissions of CO2. One might add that it suggests the need for the two major parties to revise their existing global warming policies.
They conclude with:
The foregoing suggests that the temperature data as analysed and presented by the IPCC and associated international research organisations do not provide a sound basis for the alarmist conclusions that have been reached and presented to governments. There is also a question about the validity of adjustments to Australia’s temperatures by our Bureau of Meteorology in compiling the so-called “high quality” data set. The temperature analyses, along with other similar alarmist claims, certainly justify a major independent inquiry before any government action is taken to reduce emissions of CO2. Such an inquiry would provide an opportunity for Rudd to change his extremist policy pending the inquiry’s outcome.

This data looks ideal for cusum analysis to determine the temperature break point, and to determine the consequent degree of certainty of the step change.
Years since i was around this stuff, but the technique was very useful in analysis of noisy industrial data.
Maybe someone with up to date credentials could do this.

Irrefutable evidence of Global Warming
One of you U K residents might like to write a letter to the editor
If you read most of the comments there, you will see that the majority of posters are expressing their opinions on the article, a load of shite ,perfectly sums it up
Ho Hum, on it goes…
