@ Bazz,

Attacking someone verbally behind the scenes is akin to a poison pen letter attack, and is also akin to domestic psychological violence.

Evidence indicates Jennifer Marohasy did well to blow the whistle on temperature fiddling.

MT has to work with the Nationals to determine how to proceed with supporting information to the recently released Agricultural Competitiveness White Paper. That Joyce/Abbott paper is linked to solutions to warmth in ocean algae, changing climate, and dire urgent need for ocean ecosystem management.

I invite the academic rebel peers to consider the billions spent on emissions to date has been worthwhile toward improving air quality.

However there is need for a re-think because there is another possible cause of warming and climate change, and all causes should be considered and solved. It’s all good. Better in fact. Trade nutrient as well as CO2.

Nutrient trading appears possible with householders paid for their sewage nutrients. Nutrient can produce algae to produce biofuel and supply farmers with lower cost fertilizer..

Our rebel peers may do well to consider the Oscillation phenomena they are referring to is actually being driven by algae plant matter and photosynthesis-linked warmth linked to sewage nutrient pollution.

Infrared image shows warmth from algae where the tongue of warm current reaches out along the Equator, westward from Mexico and Ecuador. Thanks to NASA:

Academics are only now coming to understand (ref OLO) there is warmth in ocean algae and that such warmth is driving the El Nino “phenomena”.
The phenomena is no longer natural because of change due to human activity.

F.y.i.
The Oscillation Index involves a scientific graph based on data that provides insight to the many eddies that swirl and oscillate outwards and northwards and southwards from the tropical warm waters of the Equator.

AGW associated science must be completed where and when possible, urgently. Climate Change is happening.

True climate science will stimulate the world food and fibre economy of which the oil economy is an integral component.

It’s all good.

But is MT capable of leading to achieve due solutions and newly productive opportunities?

What is that about ?

I don't think the SOI is anything new. It would be interesting to know
if the Polynesian navigators were aware of it.

ttbn,

"...A good summary of Abbott. Two things in his favour, though: you knew what he thought and what he would do..."

Lol!

Tony ...."there will be "no cuts to education, no cuts to health, no change to pensions, no change to the GST and no cuts to the ABC or SBS" under a Coalition government" ....Abbott

He lied and lied and lied - then he lied about lying - and when he wasn't lying, he was standing next to flags and uniforms and rattling off three word slogans - and amassing an enormous collection of losing polls...until his "team" could stand it no longer - so they ditched him.

The End

The more that comes about Abbott I think he was an ill man. He had demons in the cranium. To set up an inquiry into BOM, is a strange move. He must have thought the whole world was against him.

Bazz,
Attack behind the scenes as I mentioned is about Jennifer Marohasy blowing the whistle on temperature fiddling, never being contradicted, but being attacked behind the scenes in academic circles.

I have experienced poison pen letter sent behind the scenes to Canberra search and rescue about people missing and lost at sea. SAR proceedure was later changed to take into account the correct information I had provided.

Regarding weather, there is more to the question of temperature measurment as even Marohasy has indicated.

SOI data does not include measurement and impact of warmth in ocean algae plant matter. Yet algae and SOI associated water warmth is even linked to warmth in the southerly flowing East Australian Current that is linked to weather on Australia's east coast this very day 25/9/2015.

The SOI is not new but I submit need for algae warmth in SOI data is new.

And data on warmth in algae and consequent impact on Australian weather is also new and vitally important.

I submit the importance is linked to food production because I have been observing four weeks of cloud over waters linked to warmth in ocean algae plant matter.

Ask a farmer how crop growth may be affected by weeks of cloud without direct sunlight.

I think fiddling relevant temperature date is very dangerous because this is also about sustaining AFFORDABLE food supply to nourish over 7 billion humans DAILY.

It is perhaps bad luck for us all that Tony Abbott did not get to finish what he may have started.

Some media outlets and the taxpayer-funded national broadcaster is among them, are discounting their role in destabilising elected governments and leaders.

Arguably, it is their suddenly experienced weakness - loss of niche through technological change that their arrogance refused to countenance as it was occurring - that has caused the rush to the gutter of tabloid journalism. That will seal their fate of course. It isn't Netflix and kitty videos that will see them dwindle, it is new generations who have different lifestyles and do not have any attachment to the past.

Will the aging Boomers that the advertisers say have millions to dispose of continue with their loyalty to existing TV channels and newspapers? Shareholders shouldn't be convinced by that spin. Even getting out now is too late.

It is the impending end of the traditional media outlets that overshadows the demise of yet another PM who like other recent targets was rendered into a mere caricature to make cheap 'news' and programs.

The federal government needs to review whether it should be investing taxpayer funds so heavily (or at all!) in the outdated and failing business model that is the ABC and SBS. The ABC Board and management have made it rather obvious that they are like the boy who fell out of the aeroplane - they are not in it and can't do any better.
