Global Warming's Missing Heat:  Look Back in Anger (and Considerable Disbelief)

The world’s open-ocean currents are dominated by five subtropical gyres. These include gyres in the north and south Pacific, north and south Atlantic, and Indian Oceans.  (Credit: NOAA / DOC)
Probably the most frustrating argument on climate science in the public discourse is about the hiatus in surface temperature rise, and the failure of the models to predict it. The persistent hyperbole, the seeming logic validated largely by a disregard for some basic laws of physics, is merely a prelude to the frenzy that the next IPCC report (AR5) is likely to fuel.

To better gird ourselves before the onslaught, it seems like a good time to review another important report, which speaks very clearly to the current arguments about the rate of global warming and the accuracy of the climate models.
