Can't tell now if warming is bad or good.

[decimon]

Sere in mind ping.

Either way, we can’t affect it, so we’ll have to do what animals on this planet have done throughout history: Adapt to it...

[broadway]

So the take-away from this article is....?

We could see... unless... expect... although....

Can I get paid to do reports like that?

[Bernard Marx]

Apart from specific core data there's absolutely nothing in this expensive "study" I didn't already know. I studied geology at the U. of New Mexico long ago and my professors were well aware of periodic long-lasting droughts in the southwest. Of course there was none of this greenhouse gas "global warming" bullcrap those days.

There seems to be an enormous knowledge vacuum that started in the 1960s. This is one of any number of "scientific studies" I've read in the past few years that's just a rehash and technical update of long-established data.

NM Ping. {Here’s hoping for a bit cooler/wetter statewide weather... we could use the water.}

[Publius6961]

If so, a cooler, wetter period may be in store for the region, unless it is thwarted by increased concentrations of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere that could warm the planet.

Let's see.
The area undergoes periodic megadroughts.
Every several thousand years or so. Followed by cooler, wetter periods.
BUT.

This time, the cooler, wetter period... ...unless it is thwarted by increased concentrations of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere that could warm the planet.

Wow. Is this science or the the drug addled dream of the hysterical climate fakes pretending to be "scientists?" Again?

What would cause their dreaded Thwart? This time?
Why, the implied voodoo AGW, of course. The earth can't possibly be generating these cycles all by itself.

Their models, none of which have ever been right... written by morons who know even less about statistics and programming than they appear to know about climate. That's where they get their neurotic "predictions." OOooops. A thousand pardons; Since they have always been wrong, The IPCC no longer is allowed to call them predictions
They are now "extrapolations!"

But they are just as wrong!

Why don't we just take those computers away from the frauds? Apes playing with high tech with very big mouths and absolutely, positively no advancement to any known science. All they have managed to do after thirty years is discover a method of generating lots of heat with absolutely no light!

Delusional morons, no longer even familiar with the word "credibility."

“There’s an old saying that if you don’t like the weather in New Mexico, wait five minutes.”

They’ve had that same saying everywhere I have ever lived.

[DeoVindiceSicSemperTyrannis]

More significantly, a portion of the research indicates that an ancient period of warming may be analogous to natural present-day climate conditions... Must have been caused by all the SUVs they were driving back then.... ;-)

Visited here a few years back. One of the most unusual and interesting place we’ve ever been.

So many vestiges of the past with an advanced nuclear research facility in the middle.
