One of the primary reasons, along with its inclusion of the arctic, that GISS has been much warmer than HadCRUT 2005-present, is that its OISSTv2 SST is warmer than HadCRUT's HadSST2.

As I have shown, when we infill HadCRUT with UAH polar data 1998-2010 it explains about 80% of the discrepancy in trends and from 2002-2010 it explains about half.

I believe if you were to use UAH infilling of the poles on HadCRUT and use the OISSTv2 SST data, the trend 2002-present would be exactly the same as GISS. Which refutes the nonsensical idea it has anything to do with extrapolations.

The primary period of GISS divergence from the other sources is 2005-present.

The primary period of GISS divergence from the other sources is 2005-present.

It depends what you mean by divergence. An actual growth in divergence or just a large sustained difference (which is not technically a divergence IMO).

The trend 2005-present, especially 2006-present is nearly the same. GISS has just been warmer if you use an older baseline like 1990-1999 or 1951-1980.

For the trend, the divergence is 2002-present not 2005-present.

Basically in 2005 HadCRUT experienced a step wise decrease relative to GISS.

I believe this relates to the different SST analyses used.

Thus when we use the same SST analysis and use UAH for the poles, HadCRUT and GISS the divergence 2002-present is eliminated, and they have the same anomalies 2005-present.

where were you in April and May when GISS plummeted while the sats skyrocketed?

Man, you perceive posts in such a defensive light! I post the data (with a little factual blurb) no matter how it compares to the sats. Usually, if no one has posted the data, and it's out, I'll post it! But for now on, I'll let you post it in your totally objective manner..... :arrowhead:

The YTD for GISS is .17 and the YTD for UAH is .15. Smallest difference in years. Mostly due to UAH showing much more warming relative to the last Nina year (2008) than GISS has.

Given how every year recently has turned out, I am pretty confident the year end difference will be larger. And don't forget RSS, I believe they've been a bit cooler than UAH this year.

It might grow slightly given precedent, but I doubt it grows much considering 7 of 12 months are already in and the fact that we are heading into a Nina which will affect GISS first. I wouldn't be totally shocked given this if GISS actually finished below UAH for the year.

GISS should actually have been much warmer than UAH so far this year because the troposphere is still cool from the last Nina, while the surface should have warmed due to the neutral conditions. But UAH really hasn't gotten very cold this year. Much warmer than 2008, indicating 2008 might not be totally representative for a La Nina year.

But if you applied that same logic to 2007 and 2010...

Interesting stat I checked on...(not related in anyway to the AGW discussion) but UAH has had the sharpest decline -.28 over the last 3 days ( -19.50 to -19.59 to -19.68 to -19.78 ) of any similar 3 day timespan since 2002. I only checked because when looking at the daily graph, the slope appeared extreme.....

UAH in at +.29C for September.

yikes! So much for that impending dive we spent most of August and September hearing about.. although October is starting off quite cold. YTD is +.163. I'd guess that the final for the year is right about .15.

Yet again almost everybody will be .1C too cold in their guesses. some people even by .2C+.

October. Still three months to go, and there probably will be significant cooling seen. The year could easily finish cooler than .15 and probably will, in my opinion. Given the 4-5 month (average) lag from ENSO/OHC to satellite temps, the September number is not surprising.

Even if the next three months average a mere +.1C the year finishes at .15.

My guess is the final three months of the year finish between 0 and +.2 which means the year finishes between .12-.17. And this assumes substantial cooling of .1-.3C from September. Even if the next three months are frigid and drop .3C, 3 months is only a small portion of the year and thus the YTD doesn't change much.

We still have a long way to go with the forecast for a global temperature drop. Heading into the 2nd year of the 2 year Nina, it should continue as the Winter progresses.

Solar activity has picked up lately. The Sunspot number yesterday was about 100, twice the average. This implies that the Sun has been very active recently and could play a big role in the most recent warming you have observed.

2nd year Ninas are usually not any colder than 1st year Ninas on average.. unless they are of equal or greater strength which this one will not be. As I already said, I am predicting substantial cooling the next 3 months and that the next 3 months will average .1-.3C cooler than September did. Which is nearly as cold as the JFM period. You don't need to lecture me on how Ninas cause cooling.. I have already taken this into account.

I will give 2:1 odds in anybody's favor that we do not surpass the -.1C reading on UAH we saw last winter.

You are being way too defensive. I am in no ways lecturing you. As for whether or not we do not pass -.1C like we did last winter, what are you basing your guess on?

We are MUCH cooler than last year at this time, about .2C. I think the last three months could easily finish below .1C given OHC trends. I would agree that finishing below .12 or so is very unlikely.

3 months is 25% of the year, a pretty large percentage actually.

So now Skier is moving the goalposts since 2011 is certainly much cooler than previous years. Now he is considering the current cooling against what was "expected", and finds it not robust enough to scare him that AGW might be fake. The lack of personal honesty in evaluating the trends is astonishing. If this were an Nino, you can bet he wouldn't be pulling this excuse out of the hat and say that warming didn't meet expectations. He's just say it was warm and supports AGW.

What does that have to do with anything? Last September was as Nino month. What I said was 2nd year Ninas are rarely colder than 1st year ones unless they are of equal or stronger strength. That would be 2012 vs 2011. But it is also true that OND is rarely colder than JFM of 1st year Ninas, even when heading into a 2nd Nina.

Glad to see you agree with .12-.17 for the final.

I guess you are unaware that I have consistently adjusted Nino years downwards to account for the fact that they are Ninos. My posting history on this is quite clear and I have started entire threads dealing with this matter (one of which you just posted in but I guess it went in one ear and out the other). Not everybody warps facts to fit their beliefs- I guess you just think that this is the norm since you do it all the time.

Also your obsession with me is pretty funny.. you've probably responded to me a couple dozen times now indirectly through reading the quoted portions of people's posts.

Sure. But we don't have to finish near as cold as JFM 2011 to finish below .15C for the year.

I didn't say we couldn't finish below .15C.. I said that is approximately a best guess. To finish substantially below .15C we would need to average colder than JFM and I don't think that has every happened before in a Nina.

Why are you arguing with me.. I never said we could not finish below .15C and you apparently agree with my range of .12-.17.

:lol:

Not arguing with you, you originally said you didn't think we would finish below .15C.

I think your range is fine, though it would take something weird either way to make that large of a range bust at this point.
