Steve and team on his Weblog may have very well found a global mistake on Hansen's GISS temperature calculations. Steve as you may or may not remember proved the "Hockey Stick" by Mann was a farse as well as he justy recently found the NASA USA GISS temps were wrong and the US has not warmed since 1934---developing---keep looking to see when this story breaks!!

Go Steve McIntyre! Get a FOIA request and force Hansen to release the code!

Hansen calculated seasonal and annual averages the old fashioned way ~ he "proxied them in".
That's how they get temperature data for most of Africa, the Sahara and Gobi deserts, the atmosphere of the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, and all the other large ocean basins ~ just "proxy them in" and you got your answers to everything!!

Woo hoo! The term "Hansen Error" is destined to enter the lexicon of all statisticians, for generations to come.

Has there ever been a case of the errors being of a nature unfavorable to the “humans and capitalism are bad” hypothesis?

—here’s hoping Hansen achieves the same sort of ignominy in “climate change” research as Micheal Bellisles has in Colonial firearms research—

“Hansen’s method of combining different scribal versions is erroneous and has corrupted his entire data set...”
The two key words in the story:
Hansen + corrupt.

I don't know if Steve McIntyre would claim the US trend overall has not warmed since 1934.
Yes, 1934 just barely edges out 1998 and 2005, but individual yearly temperatures don't make a trend.

Huh? here is an official station not only are the calculations considered correct but this is at University Of Arizona. It is suppose to be located at least 100ft. from pavement so it can't influence temperature readings.

To: Freep EE
My impression is that there is an overall bias It is with great sadness that I have to agree with your statement. Yet, I have always believed that NASA scientists are above reproach because they are apolitical in their work. Yes, we all have prejudices, but even so, a genuine scientist looks and reports the data and lets the chips fall where they may. Even the appearance of corruption should be nonexistent at NASA. I still believe that nearly all NASA scientists are genuine, including those at the GISS.
Perhaps the manned space program has maintained its integrity; there is zero room for error there.
