Crude corrections\u00a0hide unrealistic physics.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The world\u2019s climate policies are based on computer simulations of the atmosphere that are thoroughly flawed. That\u2019s the conclusion of a new paper published by Net Zero Watch.

The paper, by US climate writer Willis Eschenbach, describes the results of a review of the computer code inside NASA\u2019s Model E climate simulation. It shows that, far from being based on basic physics, in many places the model incorporates crude corrections to make the output look vaguely reasonable.

Eschenbach says:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s clear that in many places the physics in the computer code is simply wrong and gives ludicrous output. But instead of fixing it, NASA scientists have simply put crude corrections to hide the problem. This destroys the credibility of NASA\u2019s predictions.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

We know from the Covid debacle that computer models are no basis for public policy. It would be a pity if politicians refuse to learn that lesson and allow further damage to be inflicted on the public.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
