Gosselin and Hasbeen both have engineering qualifications but that is about it. Neither are climate experts.
To be saying to Hasbeen that I “Make up your opinion and then tell you how silly that opinion is.” is ludicrous. Gosselin may take a more nuanced view but Hasbeen is a full blown denier unless you can tell me otherwise.
As to general sloppiness on facts can we tidy up a few mate.
You claim “One more interesting fact from the Marambino site. Of the 49years they have data, the average summer temperature exceeded 0c only 6 times and only 2 of those were this century. But shhhhh don't tell anyone.”
Well no, the average Summer (D-J-F) temps over 0 degrees were 1993 – 0.14, 1995 - 0.83, 2000 – 0.16, 2002 – 1.09 and 2006 – 0.19, therefore only 5 times.
And we could easily write it this way, of the 49 years of data the summer average only exceeded zero once in the first 25 years but in the last 24 years it has done it 4 times.
Further this from you; “Prof de Freitas, way back in the 1990s explained that even if the Antarctic were to warm by a few degrees, it wouldn't be a problem because the temperature would still be above 0c. That was way too logical for the hysterics who therefore ignore it.”
Well no it isn't logical at all. Care to try again?
Look, I have no problem acknowledging there are cooling trends being recorded on some parts of the peninsula in this century, just as there are rising trends on other parts. But this “Yes the data from NASA from 1998 to 2019 shows cooling at every station in the area” from Hasbeen is demonstrably wrong. There is a very good reason why NTZ only picked 13 of the 19 weather stations.
