Eastern Pacific Ocean Is Cooling, Not Warming! Are Climate Models Wrong?

Climate models have been getting more and more sophisticated as the power of supercomputers has increased exponentially over the last few years.

But have all the variables been factored in? A machine is only as good as the person that builds it, after all.

Now a new research paper has found some very strange temperature differences in the Eastern Pacific Ocean between climate models and observed ‘real world’ measurements.

State-of-the-art climate models generally project enhanced warming in the eastern equatorial Pacific. But now we’re heading into the third year of enhanced eastern Pacific ocean cooling, aka La Nina.

The study investigated the ability of 16 climate model large ensembles to reproduce observed sea-surface temperature and sea-level pressure trends over 1979–2020.

So, what’s going on?

    This dovetails greatly.

    OCTOBER 27, 2022 Massive Increase in Greenland Surface Ice Sheet Suggests Possible Overall Gain in 2022

    Had Democrats spent the last 3.5 years liberating US oil/gas investment, production, and transport instead of strangling them, energy would be far cheaper.

    He spends the last minute of the video pushing the dumb global warming crisis baloney.

    Otherwise, it was a good video.

    Try factor in what happened 15th January 2022!
    Australia is going to be wetter than ever for a while yet!

      Hi Michael and others,

      Compare the atmospheres now and past, especially with “normal” Yeats. (http://weather.uwyo.edu/upperair/sounding.html)

      “All this may seem a far cry from the general circulation of the world’s atmosphere but the detail serves to point the moral, that one cannot explain the broad features of world climate.if one does not know the actual mechanism involved.” (Weather and Climate, The Winds of the World, pp 139, R.C. Sutcliffe 1966)

      Have a good day, Jerry

    Models are models. If we want to know about reality, we measure it. That’s what physics is for. Nowhere in all I’ve ever seen written on climate by climateers have I ever seen the phrase “Latent Heat”. But that’s what governs the weather, on a planet dominated by water. 80kCal/kg for ice to water, almost 500 for water to steam. And with strillions of tons of ice to melt, in the ancient Laurentid and it’s brothers in Europe, that’s a lot of heat that could only come from the sun.

    Wow, computer models, now where have we seen that idiocy before? Oh right, “covid”.

    Hi PSI Editor,

    I “know” I replied tp Michael Clarke’ comment last night and my comment is evidencing still “awaiting moderation”. I will try to do what Howdy suggested but I ask: Why didn’t some one at PSI suggest this long ago?

    Have a good day, Jerry
