Why did NASA and NOAA alter the old temperature data? And if it was done on purpose for some good reason then why try to hide the fact?

>During the period of overlap between the USHCN and USCRN networks, we can confidently conclude that the adjustments to the USHCN station records made them more similar to proximate homogenous USCRN station records, both in terms of trends and anomalies. There are no systematic trend biases introduced by adjustments during this period; if anything adjusted USHCN stations still underestimate maximum (and mean) temperature trends relative to USCRN stations. This residual maximum temperature bias warrants additional research to determine the exact cause.

>While this analysis can only directly examine the period of overlap, the effectiveness of adjustments during this period is at least suggestive that the PHA will perform well in periods prior to the introduction of the USCRN, though this conclusion is somewhat tempered by the potential changing nature of inhomogeneities over time. This work provides an important empirical test of the effectiveness of temperature adjustments similar to Vose et al. [2012] and lends support prior work by Williams et al. [2012] and Venema et al. [2012] that used synthetic data sets to find that NOAA's pairwise homogenization algorithm is effectively removing localized inhomogeneities in the temperature record without introducing detectable spurious trend biases.

I read the fucking blog post. He fails to address any of these
>Time of observation changes introduced a large cooling bias due to widespread observation time changes from afternoon to morning between 1950 and present. This results in a shift from minimum‐maximum thermometers occasional double‐counting of maximums to a double‐counting of minimums, with a net U.S. average negative bias of about 0.25°C [Vose et al., 2003]. The widespread transition from LiG to MMTS instruments between 1980 and 2000 also resulted in a cooling bias; MMTS instruments tend to measure maximum temperatures about 0.5°C lower and minimum temperatures about 0.35°C higher than LiG instruments, resulting in a net negative trend bias of around 0.15°C [Hubbard and Lin, 2006].

> Despite these selection criteria, significant systemic inhomogeneities plague the USHCN. These include time of observation changes [Karl et al., 1986; Vose et al., 2003], instrument changes [Quayle et al., 1991; Doesken, 2005; Hubbard and Lin, 2006], station location changes [Changnon and Kunkel, 2006], changes in broader urban form surrounding station locations [Karl et al., 1988; Peterson and Owen, 2005; Hausfather et al., 2013], and changes in localized station site characteristics [Fall et al., 2011; Menne et al., 2010; Muller et al., 2013]. Most stations in the USHCN have been subject to three or more of these inhomogeneities during the past century, and few if any have completely homogenous records [Menne et al., 2009]. These inhomogeneities can have large nonsymmetric effects on estimates of U.S. temperature trends. The two largest trend effects are due to correcting time of observation changes and instrument changes from liquid‐in‐glass (LiG) to minimum‐maximum temperature systems (MMTSs).

Fucking hell anon. No that is not what he said. Since you are too much of a retard I will spell it out for you. NOAA and NASA, which is the direct source of his data, claims that due to a data collection problem in the 20th century they are justified in altering the data. They also claim changing latitude as a justification. In the video Tony shows why this is bullshit and how the actual data shows a slight cooling trend over the 20th century.

Wow you're stupid. The source of the data has nothing to do with cherrypicking. Cherrypicking is only presenting a certain subset of data from the source in order to misrepresent the source. This can be seen all over Tony's blog. For example, in the blogpost linked to in the video you posted, Tony goes on and on about changes to mean temperature, but when he does the comparison to 1936 morning stations, what does he base the comparison on? Not mean temperature but "mean maximum temperature" and "percentage of days over 90 degrees." Why not just compare the average temperatures of the datasets? Probably because he tried that and it doesn't show the story he wants to show. In reality, the high quality stations agree with the adjusted temperatures:

https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/2015GL067640

Ok so I finally found the time to watch this video and it's worse than I thought. The only errors he mentions are change in average latitude and TOBS (the thermometer reset in the video) He purposefully leaves out the transition from LiG to MMTS instruments, and all other instrumentation changes. He also leaves out changes in broader urban form surrounding station locations, and changes in localized station site characteristics.

He claims adjusting data is unnecessary because he selects only stations that he claims only reset thermometers in the morning and have not relocated. He doesn't provide sources for how he selected these stations so I can't validate anything, but out of 1,218 weather stations he only keeps data from ~150 stations which completely undermines his point from the beginning where he states that only U.S measurements are trustworthy because of the number of measurements.
He then shows graphs of ONLY max daily temperature and percent of days above 90F he's the only person in the world who uses these instead of annual mean temperature and it's pure cherry picking.

Do you consider that "cherry picking" because he isn't talking about all the times that they didn't manipulate the data? Does that even matter? If they've done it once, then they're suspect.

Okay. So... do you want me to share emails of lobbiest people who have taken money from big oil to push the idea that there is no global warming? Politicians have done it as well.

There is, but you won't like it:

Robert B. Laughlin, Nobel Laureate in Physics, endowed chair in physics, Stanford University, had this to say about ether in contemporary theoretical physics:

It is ironic that Einstein's most creative work, the general theory of relativity, should boil down to conceptualizing space as a medium when his original premise [in special relativity] was that no such medium existed [..] The word 'ether' has extremely negative connotations in theoretical physics because of its past association with opposition to relativity. This is unfortunate because, stripped of these connotations, it rather nicely captures the way most physicists actually think about the vacuum. . . . Relativity actually says nothing about the existence or nonexistence of matter pervading the universe, only that any such matter must have relativistic symmetry. [..] It turns out that such matter exists. About the time relativity was becoming accepted, studies of radioactivity began showing that the empty vacuum of space had spectroscopic structure similar to that of ordinary quantum solids and fluids. Subsequent studies with large particle accelerators have now led us to understand that space is more like a piece of window glass than ideal Newtonian emptiness. It is filled with 'stuff' that is normally transparent but can be made visible by hitting it sufficiently hard to knock out a part. The modern concept of the vacuum of space, confirmed every day by experiment, is a relativistic ether. But we do not call it this because it is taboo.[17]

Robert sounds a bit ignorant.

Einstein: “ "We may say that according to the general theory of relativity space is endowed with physical qualities; in this sense, therefore, there exists an Aether. According to the general theory of relativity space without Aether is unthinkable; for in such space there not only would be no propagation of light, but also no possibility of existence for standards of space and time (measuring-rods and clocks), nor therefore any space-time intervals in the physical sense. But this Aether may not be thought of as endowed with the quality characteristic of ponderable media, as consisting of parts which may be tracked through time. The idea of motion may not be applied to it."

There's no evidence that suggests the earth will magically absorb more CO2 than it has historically, in fact increased temperatures hinder the earths ability to absorb CO2, mainly due to decreased solubility of CO2 in higher temperature oceans, as well as human caused deforestation. If CO2 emissions aren't reduced the earth will never absorb more CO2 than we release and atmospheric concentrations will not go down.

Ok so you brought up the Azolla event, I think that's very relevant as it's a similar problem as what we're talking about right now.
So atmospheric CO2 was relativity stable for about 200 million years, making conditions perfect for the evolution of the necessary life to trigger the Azolla event, after about 200 million years of evolution, the event began and 800,000 years later atmospheric CO2 was greatly reduced.

And then some time in the not so far future, the crops will fail and their will be water shortages and the panic will finally set in and there will be riots and then there will boots on the ground in the cities and then you know what will happen? All the bois will be there too, taking the opportunity to win back some power. Mass happenings. Then far off in the future, society will have fixed the climate, eventually. And you know who will be still sitting pretty? The same people who have decided not to act on climate change, today. The same rich people, their families will be massively richer then. Only peasants like you will suffer. And I will be there to witness it all. Cannot wait.

Not because I necessarily reject the science, but because I see it as being incompatible with my political ideology, and I care more about my other positions than I care about your pet issue.

>how exactly are the current weather patterns any different
For the northern latitude, in a formerly temperate climate, the summer is much longer, creeping into both the spring and the autumn. The winters are milder, but with a higher frequency of cold spells. Heat waves during the summer last much longer and the average temperature is higher.
But the worst of it, is the unpredictability. Seasons used to have semi predictable weather. Now it is much less so. Snow, ice, rain, heat and drought are all happening with increasing frequency out of season.
