Mr Viterito has put out another paper again. This time his data has come up with a "gap down" in seismic activity. So he has made the call. Satellite TLT temps to drop a fair bit in the next few years.. Good on him for having the balls to put his arse on the line!
The Correlation of Seismic Activity and Recent Global Warming (CSARGW) and the Correlation of Seismic Activity and Recent Global Warming: 2016 Update (CSARGW16), documented a high correlation between mid-ocean seismic activity and global temperatures from 1979 to 2016
It is reasonable to conclude that this recent “gapping down” may be a tipping point towards cooler global temperatures. Using HGFA seismic frequencies as the sole predictor of global temperatures going forward, there is a 95% probability that global temperatures in 2019 will decline by 0.47°C ± 0.21°C from their 2016 peak. In other words, there is a 95% probability that 2019 temperatures will drop to levels not seen since the mid-1990s.
Despite these pitfalls, this type of exercise provides fresh opportunities to learn more about the role of mid-ocean geothermal inputs to the climate system. This new knowledge could prove valuable towards solving the climate puzzle, one of the most intriguing and complex projects the geosciences have ever undertaken.
