'Climate change deniers have no peer-reviewed articles to back up their claims'

'Climate change deniers have no per-reviewed articles to back up their claims' - That's the line that the 'warmist' media and interest-groups push day after day. So I was intrigued to see this article at Popular Technology listing 800 papers that support scepticism of AGW or the negative environmental or economic effects of AGW. There are more than 800 such papers, this is just a sample. Take a look at the list, follow the links, read the extracts and remind yourself of the list the next time you are told that the science of climate change is 'settled' by someone like John Kerry: "You realize that there are something like two or three thousand studies all of which concur which have been peer reviewed, and not one of the studies dissenting has been peer reviewed?"

Here are some extracts from the peer-reviewed papers that John Kerry and others say do not exist:

"The corrected estimates are very similar to the original results, showing quite coherent peaks. ... The corrected data continue to show the Medieval Warm Period (MWP) and Little Ice Age (LIA) quite clearly. ... While instrumental data are not strictly comparable, the rise in 29 year-smoothed global data from NASA GISS from 1935 to 1992 (with data from 1978 to 2006) is 0.34 Deg C. Even adding this rise to the 1935 reconstructed value, the MWP peak remains 0.07 Deg C above the end of the 20th Century values"


"The lack of a gradual decrease in interglacial PCO2 does not support the suggestion that a long-term drawdown of atmospheric CO2 was the main cause of the climate transition."


"The start of the CO2 increase thus lagged the start of the [temperature] increase by 800 ± 600 years."


"High-resolution records from Antarctic ice cores show that carbon dioxide concentrations increased by 80 to 100 parts per million by volume 600 ± 400 years after the warming of the last three deglaciations."


"Our results suggest that present coral reef calcification rates are equivalent to levels in the late 19th century and does not support previous suggestions of large and potentially catastrophic decreases in the future."


"This paper's results concerning average seawater salinity and acidity show that, on a global scale and over the time scales considered (hundreds of years), there would not be accentuated changes in either seawater salinity or acidity from the observed or hypothesized rises in atmospheric CO2 concentrations."


"We report the presence of relict ground ice in subarctic Canada that is greater than 700,000 years old, with the implication that ground ice in this area has survived past interglaciations that were warmer and of longer duration than the present interglaciation."
