Sea Level at Hobart, Tasmania: A Failure to
Authenticate - In April 2003, three of the
scientists involved in the earlier claims that sea level had risen at
the `Isle of the Dead' published a new paper in Geophysical Research
Letters in which they sought to reinforce
their claims with new information about tides and sea level at nearby
Hobart, Tasmania, information which had not been presented by them in
their earlier, more detailed, paper of November 2002.
The key reference they
provided for this new information proved to be inadequate and of little
value in supporting their claims. But another, more
significant, problem in their paper was also found. (11 June 2003)

winter comes later now in his boyhood home town. But the weather
records from there and nearby show his claim is false. (26 Apr 03)

Revisited (2 Feb 2003)
A detailed report on the
160-year-old sea level benchmark at Port Arthur, Tasmania, which some
scientists think is evidence of sea level rise, but which actually shows
no such thing.

A Smoking Pea-Shooter (19 March 2001) The latest scare story from the
industry is that human influence on the greenhouse effect has now
been measured in a British study of two sets of satellite data 27 years apart.
This report examines the details of the study and reveals some surprising
facts not reported in the media, including what may be a significant flaw in
the study itself.
