This is hilarious look at the Akasofu projection I posted earlier, the little red dot was the current at the time of the graph, as you can see the IPCC projection just like all the models we have posted vastly overshoot the observable.
This is what "skepticalscience" has to say about the accuracy of Akasofu:
Quote:As you can see, Akasofu predicted a very slight cooling (approximately 0.02°C) between 2000 and 2011, whereas the Wood for Trees Index has warmed approximately 0.1°C over that period. So his prediction has not been terribly inaccurate yet - there hasn't really been sufficient time to evaluate its accuracy.
So when the IPCC vastly over state temperature and Akasofu has a 0.02c cooling and the observable is 0.1c warming, isn't it obvious through the temperature flat line (come on 0.1degree in a decade is not significant warming at all) Akasofu is incredibly closer to the observable than the IPCC's large overstatement?
Pretty good if you ask me, obviously it isn't easy to predict the climate the IPCC knows this all to well, so we will see in the next 10 years if the trend closely resembles the oscillation of Akasofu. So far it's more plausible than the massive overstated curve of the IPCC is it not?
Also in the comment section:
Quote:Dana, why are you changing from HadCRUT to WoodForTrees Index during the article while Akasofu uses HadCRUT?
The reply:
Quote:Using HadCRUT is a cherrypick. It shows the least amount of warming since 2000 because it excludes the Arctic. Frankly I'd prefer to use GISTemp because I think it's probably the most accurate, but then 'skeptics' would accuse me of cherrypicking as well.
So it's okay when Mr Gore uses a SINGLE tree ring to come to the hockey stick but when Burt Rutan shows the entire data set he is lying? Then when Akasofu makes a projection "oh we can't use HadCRUT like the IPCC does! Because it falls to close inline with Akasofu! We now have to use the WHOLE data set". Funny that isn't it? Cherry pick when it suits, use the whole data set ONLY when it suits.
It would be hilarious to see HadCRUT imposed on the graph, a nice cherry pick like the IPCC does
