Weather Blog: Global Warming Science | khou.com | Houston News

Today, two scientists squared off to debate the science of Global Warming at a luncheon sponsored by the Petroleum Club in downtown Houston. Dr. Gerald North, an atmospheric scientist from Texas A&M has done extensive work on compiling the global temperature record using satellite and other data. His research was included in the IPCC report that showed the steady increase in temperatures world wide.
Dr. Richard Lindzen is an M.I.T. professor who also contributed to parts of the IPCC report. He has serious concerns about some of the way facts and figures have been manipulated to direct policy-makers around the world. He’s also not convinced of the significance of the scope of the warming.

Water Vapor Drop May Have Led to Warming Slowdown - ABC News

The slowdown in global warming in the last few years may have been caused by a decline in water vapor in the stratosphere, a new report suggests.

While climate warming is continuing — the decade of 2000 to 2009 was the hottest on record worldwide — the increase in temperatures was not as rapid as in the 1990s.

Study: Global warming means wacky weather near Great Lakes | detnews.com | The Detroit News

In coming years, global warming will have a bizarre, seemingly incongruous impact on winters here in the Great Lakes region: shorter, milder cold seasons coupled with bigger winter storms.

That is the consensus among researchers involved in a National Wildlife study titled "Oddball Winter Weather: Global Warming's Wake-up Call for the Northern United States."

"The next few decades will bring both more unusually warm winters and record-breaking snowstorms," the report reads.
