29 April – Desertification and Chemtrails
http://witsendnj.blogspot.com/2011/04/hide-decline.html
I was reading a post at Greefyre’s wonderful blog, about the fabulist denier Judith Curry, where I happened across a video linked to in comments, which is embedded below. It’s a lecture by Richard Muller, in which he attempts to use the famous divergence of tree-ring data as a proxy for temperature from real temperatures measured by actual thermometers to discredit climate scientists personally and their research in general. (I disagree completely, but rather than get into why, I would direct you to Greenfyre’s subsequent response to the video.)
Having read of the ‘hide the decline” controversy, I have noted many times that the divergence is an obvious indication that tree growth is being stunted by ozone. This, however, is the first time I have ever seen these graphs. They represent quite stunning vindication, in my opinion.
