"Today’s post now reports on a new article (February 8, 2022)
published in the journal Atmosphere, written by some 17 co-authors led
by Peter O’Neill, Ronan Connolly, Michael Connolly, and Willy Soon. The
title is "Evaluation of the Homogenization Adjustments Applied to
European Temperature Records in the Global Historical Climatology
Network Dataset.†The main difference between this piece and Kirye’s
2021 work is that whereas Kirye only attempted to tackle temperature
alterations at 6 weather stations, these guys have collected some ten
plus years of both adjusted and unadjusted NCEI data from every station
in Europe, close to 4000 stations in total. They then attempt to some
degree to reverse-engineer the adjustments to figure out what NCEI is doing, and particularly whether NCEI is validly identifying station discontinuities
, such as moves or instrumentation
changes, that might give rise to valid adjustments. The bottom line is
that the adjusters make no attempt to tie adjustments to any specific
event that would give rise to legitimate homogenization,
and that many of the alterations appear ridiculous and completely beyond justification. "
Dr. Roy Spencer adds:
The trouble with homogenization corrections is that if there is a slow
spurious warming trend from urbanization effects, it looks like global
warming and won't be removed.

Amen, Dr. Spencer. This is the way it's always been when somebody tries to sell you snake oil -- as you well know.

As I replied to Dr. Spencer, it's strange that these homogonizations always seem to favor the warmist hysteria. I think he agrees; he didn't reply to me yet, but he's seen enough to know there are in fact efforts to promote the theory by fudging the science.
