Finally, a study that shows unreliable models are the root of overwrought 'extreme weather'...

Thanks for sharing SSgt (Join to see). My training and experience as an Operations Research Systems Analysis (ORSA) officer which I picked up as secondary specialty in 1989 and used through 2008 was very useful in terms of examining hypotheses as well as pseudo science which was listed as fact. I remember hearing Al Gore trumpeting paperless society in the 1990s and then experiencing an exponential growth in government paperwork requirements - HIPAA for example.
The devotees of man-made climate change as the gravest threat to the world seem to be directly descended from those who advocated zero population growth because they supposed humans were the greatest depleters of the environment in the 1970's.
It always irritated me to see people limit their research to studies which supported their hypotheses. That approach is diametrically opposed to a proper application the scientific method.

Do you know what it means to extrapolate? It means simply to reach a conclusion by stretching known data to fill in the blank spaces in between data points. I used to do a lot of it when I was a practicing navigator. For example, if the tidal current at a certain place was ebbing at a rate of 2 knots at 2 pm and was slack (neither ebbing or flooding) at 4 pm, I could make a reasonable guess at its rate of speed and direction at 3 pm by extrapolating the data at 2 and 4. The results were reasonably accurate because the gap between the known data points wasn't too large.

The problem with climate data models is that the "climate scientists" are extrapolating between vastly separated data points, then cooking the data when their models don't project the dire warnings they need to control people's behavior. Thus, it's not only bad science, it's unethical science. Hell, it's not even science. It's pure politics. In fact, it's tyrannical, there being little difference between threatening someone with a sword, or a gun, or the dire predictions of catastrophic climate change unless we change our behavior.
