NASA Releases Massive Climate Change Data Set
An anonymous reader writes: NASA is releasing global climate change projections to help scientists and planners better understand local and global effects of hazards. The data includes both historical measurements from around the world and simulated projections based on those measurements. "The NASA climate projections provide a detailed view of future temperature and precipitation patterns around the world at a 15.5 mile (25 kilometer) resolution, covering the time period from 1950 to 2100. The 11-terabyte dataset provides daily estimates of maximum and minimum temperatures and precipitation over the entire globe." You can download them and look through the projections yourself at NASA's Climate Model Data Services page.
There.s a 0.1 degree difference in the maximum temperature in Fargo for today.
Clearly, all of science must be wrong and I can pretty much make up anything I like and claim it is reality.
Winning!
Is this the un"adjusted" raw data, or does it have the various "adjustments" that have been applied to the historical data before in past releases?
Bwaahhahahah! Do you think they would actually release the real data? As we all know, governments are putting so much cash into climate change research that the money has totally distorted the scientific process. Hence the global conspiracy to secure as much as one million dollars of research money by the evil scientists, using any means available to hoodwink the public.
Expect no truth from them. You must find it yourself, thermometer in hand. The truth is out there.
Actually, a great improvement for this would be auto-update functionality so they could push out updates anytime. That way we will always have the most up to date historical data!
The GHCN releases historic data daily. It contains adjustments daily. Past data changes frequently.
You can download the data daily, compare and contrast, witness this for yourself.
Sometimes years worth of station data disappears from their releases, only to re-materialize a month or two later. These mysterious disappearances often coincide with a press release a week or two later about new temperature records being broken. Most of the past adjustments are downward. The adjustments look nothing like a normal distribution either: not a small bias.
There is nothing scientific about whats happening here.
