Quote from bigdavediode:
Okay, look, this is just getting embarrassing. Launching a weather balloon is meteorology.
Thatâs right. The data from the balloon (with all other forms of observations) will eventually go into a climate model. Very important for atmospheric modeling.
Scientists who study the Earth's climate is climatology. They are different.
No Shit. Climatology: study of climate, scientifically defined as weather conditions averaged over a period of time.
Climatologists are involved with the study of climate (s). They obtain their data from geology, paleontology, oceanography, and meteorological data. Other methods such as dendrochronology also give clues to climates at various times in Earths history.
Meteorologists become TV weathermen, and then sign silly Republican online anti-global warming petitions, signing alongside dentists.
I became a trader. TV weatherman are journalists. I'm not a republican (or democrat), and have not signed anything. I am simply opposed to having my life drastically altered without a true consensus on a very important issue. I don't buy that there is consensus until all sides have been given equal time. Opposition is being routinely vilified. I question whether enough data from the mentioned sources is even a fraction of the amount needed to provide accurate extrapolations in climate models.
Diode, you do yourself a disservice by assuming others lack knowledge simply because they donât go into detail, or agree with you. I donât really disagree with you on manâs role in warming. I disagree with how it should be approached. You are right about one thing. This is getting embarrassing.
