Meteoric Global Warming
According to Vladimir Shaidurov of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the apparent rise in average global temperature recorded by scientists over the last hundred years or so could be due to atmospheric changes that are not connected to human emissions of carbon dioxide from the burning of natural gas and oil. Shaidurov’s analysis of the data suggests that changes in the amount of water vapour at 5000 to 13000 metres altitude has lead to the formation of more thin, high altitude clouds, which are composed mostly of ice crystals, and that the cause of this change was a catastrophic event that happened in Siberia almost 100 years ago.

This news item has already triggered a huge amount of debate the best of which can be read at http://www.realclimate.org/index.php?p=271 where it appears that Shaidurov’s theory is all but debunked. I have drawn that discussion to his attention and hope to post his reply in due course.

If you read the data being shown and posted on the web, there are many things distracting us from our studies to find the meteorologic measures of the database, so please go to the website that sciencebase has posted above - it’s correct!
