WUWT has another post by Jim Goodridge. It makes one question whether that blog has any standards for truth or accuracy.



Here are some quotes:



Taking the sunspot numbers since 1900 and plotting an 11-year running average

Results in a graph showing an increasing sunspot trend for 110-years



Is that really so? Let’s take a look:

Golly. Jim Goodridge was wrong.

He goes on to say:



The Hadley Center has a 110-year sea surface temperature record

The trends in sea surface temperature and sunspot trends are similar



Is that really so? Let’s take a look. Here’s 11-year moving averages of the Hadley sea surface temperature data:

Here are the sunspot numbers, and the sea surface temperature data, normalized and plotted on the same graph:

Golly. Jim Goodridge was wrong.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is the quality of “science” you can expect from the WUWT blog.

Goodridge ends with this gem:



Skepticism is a tool.



Too easy.
