Comment on Gaming the Peer Review System: Part 2. Exploiting Loopholes by admin

Roy Spencer’s blog contained his response to Dr. Wagner’s resignation. He was asked in the comments who he requested as reviewers, but his reply evaded the question:

“1) Who reviewed your paper Roy? Did you submit a list of potential reviewers? If so who, and were they amongst the reviewers selected to review your paper?
(Spencer) re Q1: Almost every journal requires a list of suggested reviewers, and except for one reviewer, the identities of the reviewers chosen was unknown to us.”

I’m not sure how Spencer knew the name of one of the reviewers chosen, but surely he would know the names of the 5 he submitted.

Comment on Who Wants to Kill the Electric Car?* by Pabitra

A brilliant article and a joy to read. Thanks Dr. Moore. You seem to be taking the ground from beneath the oil enthusiasts and their fake propaganda.

It is said, what you focus on, expands. The alternate fuel research for cars is one such area. Any lack of it’s satisfactory progress is not in the inherent technicalities but due to the fact that historically such focus had been highjacked by oil companies and traded for ‘speed’ and ‘power’. One needs to see BMWs and Lamborghinis trudging along at snail’s pace in sea of city cars to realize that. It is understandable why ‘true cost’ of fossil fueled motor transport is so problematic for few to appreciate.
I completely agree with you that, contrary to common perception, Climate Change is not entirely a doomsday scenario – it offers opportunities too. But only properly informed are capable of discovering those opportunities.

Comment on Science, Global Warming, and the Ice Age Mystery by admin

That's an interesting observation. The ice sheets formed at the higher elevations much as glaciers form in the mountainous regions today. The lowland areas you mentioned were quite dry and cold, but it was possible for a number of animals and even man to survive there. This news article gives a good summary of what it may of been like.

I wonder how we could explain that there is no sign of glaciation during the Ice Age in the lowlands of Alaska, Syberia, and the Ucon territory where we find so many fossils of wooly mammoth? What about other small burrowing mammals during the Ice Age? If Syberia is any colder than right now, it is not possible for them to survive. How can we explain that? It seems like the mystery of the Ice Age is getting deepens.

I could not discover too much unequal information on this clot of contents, so it was good to find his one. I will come back again to overlook next articles that you have another time.

Comment on Science, Climate Change, and the Greenhouse Effect by admin

In a recent study in Journal of Climate, researchers from the Universities of Southampton and Bristol for the first time reconstructed climate sensitivity over five ice-age cycles based on a global suite of records of sea surface and polar temperature change. The researchers infer that Earth’s climate sensitivity over the last half million years most likely amounted to a 3.1 to 3.9 °C temperature increase for the radiative equivalent of a modern doubling of atmospheric carbon-dioxide concentrations (with a total range of 1.7 to 5.7 °C). G.N. Plass calculated in 1956 that the climate sensitivity was 3-4 degrees centigrade, well in line with the temperature increases we have seen the last century. This study is further experimental evidence for his estimation of the climate sensitivity using data that extends backward through five ice ages.

Comment on Aristotle’s Contribution to Science, Education, and Physics by admin

I’ve read more on Aristotle. In his dialogue Republic, Plato argues “. Justice is a proper, harmonious relationship between the warring parts of the person or city. Hence Plato’s definition of justice is that justice is the having and doing of what is one’s own. A just man is a man in just the right place, doing his best and giving the precise equivalent of what he has received.”
