Empirical observations show no sign of a ‘Climate Crisis’ – ‘Snow cover stabilizes, sea level recovers and no change in storm activity’ – There is an increase because of that ?
In his annual State of the Climate report, Ole Humlum, professor emeritus at the University of Oslo, reviewed detailed models of temperature changes in the atmosphere and ocean along with impact trends. of climate. Many of these show no significant trends and show involvement in poorly understood natural cycles.
And while the report shows mild warming, there is no evidence of significant changes, with steady snow cover, sea level recovery and no change in storm activity.

A systematic review of climate trends and observational data by a prominent climate scientist has found no evidence to support the claim of a climate crisis.
And while the report shows mild warming, there is no evidence of significant changes, with steady snow cover, sea level recovery and no change in storm activity.
Professor Humlum says:
“A year ago, I warned that there was a lot of risk in using computer modeling and immature science to make extraordinary claims. The empirical observations I have reviewed show very mild warming and no evidence of a climate crisis.”
GWPF Director, Dr. Benny Peiser said:
“It is extraordinary that anyone should think there is a climate crisis. Year after year, our annual assessment of climate trends records how little has changed over the past 30 years. Habitual climate alarmism is largely driven by scientists’ computer modeling rather than observational evidence. “

Excerpt:
Sea level
Global sea levels are monitored by satellite altimeters and by direct measurement with tide gauges. While satellite records show a global sea level rise of about 3.3mm per year or more, data from tide gauges worldwide shows a steady rise of 1–2mm per year. Tide gauge shows no recent accelerometer (or
deceleration) of sea level rise. The stark difference (approximately 1:2) between the two datasets has no widely accepted explanation, but it is known that satellite observations encounter complexities in nearshore regions. sea (for example, see Vignudelli et al. 2019). Whatever the truth, tidal data is more suitable for local coastal planning purposes.
Sea of Ice
In 2021, global sea ice cover is still below the satellite era average, but is now increasing. By the end of 2016, it had reached a marked minimum, at least in part due to the activity of two different patterns of natural variability, affecting sea ice in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, respectively. This
variations with simultaneous minima in 2016. The trend toward steady or higher ice at both poles is likely to begin in 2018 and has since strengthened. The amount of sea ice in Antarctica decreased markedly in 2016 as a result of unusual wind conditions.
Snow cover
The variation in snow cover globally is mainly due to changes in the Northern Hemisphere, where all the major landmasses are located. Snow in the Southern Hemisphere is mainly found in Antarctica, and the cover is therefore relatively stable. Average snow cover in the Northern Hemisphere has been stable since the start of satellite observations, although local and regional variations can be large. Since 1979, snow cover in the Northern Hemisphere in autumn has increased slightly, midwinter cover has been essentially stable, and spring cover has decreased slightly. In 2021, seasonal snow cover in the Northern Hemisphere is close to the 1972–2020 average.
Storm and hurricane
The most recent data for the cumulative cyclonic energy of tropical cyclones and global tropical cyclones (ACEs) are within the range observed since 1970. In fact, the ACE data are highly variable over time, with significant change over 3.6 years, but without any obvious trend towards higher or lower values. The number of hurricanes that made landfall in the continental United States remained within the range for the entire observation period since 1851.
