Evidence of RWP In Florida
By Paul Homewood
I recently came across this paper from 2012:
It suggests that both winters and summers were warmer than now in Florida at certain periods during the RWP.
But what is really interesting is their comment about a falling sea level at the Vandal Minimum transition.
HH Lamb strongly believed that sea levels fell during that period, the Dark Ages, following maybe a metre of rise during the RWP, a rate of rise similar to that of today. Following the fall, seas began to rise again during the MWP.
HH Lamb: Climate, History & The Modern World
Some modern studies, such as this one which I debunked last month, claim that these variations did not exist and simply assume that the rate of rise prior to the 20thC was unchanged. These are usually based on extremely limited data. The evidence from glaciers alone of colder epochs, such as the Dark Ages and Little Ice Age show such conclusions are worthless.
The work of experts such as Sylvia Hallam has been ignored in favour of computer models and global warming theory. It is good to see another study that prefers real hard data.
Comments are closed.
The biggest thing this shows is that there are lots of studies that the Alarmists are trying to ignore hide bury so there funding and status as hero’s who will save the planet remain.
The story will be told many years into the future how these Charlatans pulled the wool over our narcissistic Politian’s and completely stunted our growth as a planet.

A 2500 years of reconstructed winter temperatures by using a fjord sediment archive from the NE Atlantic. The study is based on ca. 8-m long sediment core from Gullmar Fjord (Sweden), dated by Pb210 and AMS C14 and analysed for stable oxygen isotopes (d 18 O) measured on shallow infaunal benthic foraminiferal species Cassidulina laevigata.

There are many many others. A search through notrickszone archive of papers reveal many of them (e.g_https://notrickszone.com/page/2/?s=Roman+Warm+Period)
Sorry to be OT but I have been watching the 100 ball cricket on Sky and it is being punctuated by a massively irritating advert about the alleged climate crisis. Basically a bunch of ill informed preachy kids talking garbage. It appears to be about multinational companies virtue signalling. Sustainable farming is a thing now apparently. Since farming has been happening for twelve thousand years I think that it might have been a thing for a while now.
Not a very effective advert if you can’t name the corp
I think you mean the Amazon advert
“what’s it gonna take for you to do something!!”
The cheek of Amazon having a climate change advert when Jeff Bezos just went to spaceRolling on the floor laughing billionaires have some effing nerve
Well spotted Paul – H.H. Lamb was right on the money. I have walked with the local Archeological Society the remains of the esturian evidence that was just outside Lincoln in Roman times. The generally accepted explanation was that the retreat of the coastline was due to land rising after the retreat of the ice sheet but that would be a continuous process with a steady exponential decline; in this case the historical evidence for a more rapid change is clear, both in Lincoln and further south near Bourne. The trashing of historical evidence by ‘climate modellers’ that seem to be completely oblivious to the limitations of the mathematics they use is a modern scandal!
Ha ha, computer games oops models. So reliable. They told us that half a million Brits would die of CFhinese Flu by middle of last summer. How can we not believe and worship the computer gamers of the Giovt, Sage, universities and climate delusion theory. Computer games are the post-modern reality – put your headset on and dont look out the window.
‘Is it true or was it generated by a computer!’
The very reason they use models is because by controlling input they control output. That game can also be played with empirical data produced using biased methodologies but only up to a point (Gregor Mendel)
I believe that one of the many criticisms of the infamous hockey stick graph was that it was flat until modern times and failed to show the medieval and Roman warm periods. This of course was completely at odds with overwhelming and well documented historical evidence for periods of warmer weather occurring naturally roughly a thousand years apart. Of course, a graph that had actually included these natural fluctuations would have shown that the current warm spell was completely normal.
All those previous warm periods where things could be done that can’t today are a big thorn in the warmists case that what we see today is unusual, hence leading climate crook and his mates trying to make them disappear. Their claim to for example the MWP being limited to the northern hemisphere has been debunked too by numerous papers referencing evidence in the southern hemisphere.
Yes, Stonyground, this is definitely not allowed. Perhaps Michael Mann can sue the authors of the paper for reinstating the RWP which he broomed from history to flatten his hockey stick. Now all we need is for someone to do a reinstatement of the Little Ice Age and Michael will lose what mind he has left.
Facts are such pesky things. They just keep popping up……
