The issue is his and others\u2019 confusion over what scientific modelling is and what it can do. This applies to any area of science dealing with systems above a single atom \u2013 everything, in practice.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My own doctoral research was on the infrared absorption and fragmentation of gaseous molecules using lasers. The aim was to quantify how the processes depended on the laser\u2019s physical properties.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I then modelled my results. This was to see if theory correctly predicted how my measurements changed as one varied the laser pulse. Computed values were compared under different conditions with those observed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The point is that the underlying theory is being tested against the variations it predicts.\u00a0This applies \u2013 on steroids \u2013 to climate modelling, where the atmospheric systems are vastly more complex. All the climate models assume agreement at some initial point and then let the model show future projections.\u00a0Most importantly, for the projected temperature variations, the track record of the models in predicting actual temperature observations is very dubious, as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2225-1154\/9\/11\/161\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Professor Nicola Scafetta\u2019s chart<\/a>\u00a0below shows.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"723\" height=\"317\" data-attachment-id=\"321744\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?attachment_id=321744\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-364.png?fit=940%2C412&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"940,412\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image-364\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-364.png?fit=723%2C317&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-364.png?resize=723%2C317&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-321744\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-364.png?w=940&amp;ssl=1 940w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-364.png?resize=300%2C131&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-364.png?resize=768%2C337&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 723px) 100vw, 723px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the climate sensitivity \u2013 the amount of global surface warming that will occur in response to a doubling of atmospheric CO<sub>2<\/sub>&nbsp;concentrations over pre-industrial levels \u2013 there\u2019s an&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.metoffice.gov.uk\/research\/climate\/understanding-climate\/climate-sensitivity-explained\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">enormous range<\/a>&nbsp;of projected temperature increases, from 1.5\u00b0 to 4.5\u00b0C.&nbsp;Put simply, that fits everything \u2013 and so tells us almost nothing about the underlying theories.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s a worrying problem. If the models can\u2019t be shown to predict the variations, then what can we say about the underlying theory of manmade climate change? But the public are given the erroneous impression that the \u2018settled science\u2019 confirms that theory \u2013 and is forecasting disastrously higher temperatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Such a serious failing has forced the catastrophe modellers to (quietly) switch tack into \u2018attribution modelling\u2019. This involves picking some specific emotive disaster \u2013 say the recent flooding in Dubai \u2013 then finding some model scenario which reproduces it. You then say: \u201cClimate change modelling predicted this event, which shows the underlying theory is correct.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What\u2019s not explained is how many other scenarios didn\u2019t fit this specific event. It\u2019s as if, in my research, I simply picked one observation and scanned through my modelling to find a fit. Then said: \u201cJob done, the theory works.\u201d It\u2019s scientifically meaningless. What\u2019s happening is the opposite of a prediction. It\u2019s working backwards from an event and showing that it can happen under some scenario.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My points on the modelling of variations also apply to the work done by Neil Ferguson at Imperial College on catastrophic Covid fatalities. The public were hoodwinked into thinking \u2018the Science\u2019 was predicting it. Not coincidentally, Ferguson isn\u2019t a medical doctor but a mathematician and theoretical physicist with a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/dailysceptic.org\/2023\/12\/10\/with-neil-fergusons-abysmal-record-of-failed-predictions-boris-was-right-not-to-trust-him\/\">track record of presenting demented predictions<\/a>&nbsp;to interested parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019m no fan of credentialism. But when Packham tries it, maybe he needs questioning on his own qualifications \u2013 a basic degree in a non-physical \u2018soft\u2019 science then an abandoned doctorate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Paul Sutton&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/paulsutton.substack.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">can be found on Substack<\/a>.<\/em>&nbsp;His new book on woke issues&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/Poetry-Gin-Tea-Paul-Sutton\/dp\/191221198X\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Poetry of Gin and Tea<\/a><\/em>&nbsp;is out now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Sunday\u2019s\u00a0BBC Politics, Luke Johnson asked for evidence that the recent Dubai flooding was due to climate change.
