Yet another thread that is trying to hide in the kiddie pool. Bringing it out for open discussion.
OP by Moon:
Atlantic Ocean circulation at weakest in a millennium, say scientists
Decline in system underpinning Gulf Stream could lead to more extreme weather in Europe and higher sea levels on US east coast
The Atlantic Ocean circulation that underpins the Gulf Stream, the weather system that brings warm and mild weather to Europe, is at its weakest in more than a millennium, and climate breakdown is the probable cause, according to new data.
Further weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) could result in more storms battering the UK, more intense winters and an increase in damaging heatwaves and droughts across Europe.
Scientists predict that the AMOC will weaken further if global heating continues, and could reduce by about 34% to 45% by the end of this century, which could bring us close to a “tipping point” at which the system could become irrevocably unstable. A weakened Gulf Stream would also raise sea levels on the Atlantic coast of the US, with potentially disastrous consequences.

You'd better worry.
When they say ' by the end of the century ' they mean that our century may be ending prematurely.

This story about the 'Gulf Stream Shutting Down' is a fairly old one. Most of it is based on illiteracy in geography. The remainder simply denies physics. The Gulf Stream does not go near the Arctic. It is not possible to 'shut down' a current. As long as there is unequal heating, there will be ocean and air currents.

Moon is convinced that 'global warming' essentially means 'climate change'. Neither phrase has any meaning. No one has ever defined either phrase. As a member of the Church of Global Warming, he believes that a Holy Gas somehow can affect the temperature of Earth. This is of course denying the 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics and the Stefan-Boltzmann law.

There is no science here. Science is not random numbers used as data. It is a set of falsifiable theories. No more. No less. It is not possible to measure the temperature of large stretches of ocean. There is also a reversal fallacy here. The jetstream is not controlling sea surface temperatures. Sea surface temperatures can affect the jet stream.

The trouble is that no one has collected ANY data of global temperatures. The problem, you see, is one of mathematics. A statistical summary must have the raw data available. It must be unbiased. It must be raw data. You must declare and justify the variance. You must calculate the margin of error value, and that value must accompany any averages performed upon the data. Selection of the data must be by randN. Normalization must be performed by paired randR. You can't just say "it's not perfect". Mathematically, you are guessing.
Heat is not a cycle. Heat is defined by the 2nd law of thermodynamics. It is the flow of thermal energy. Nothing else. It is not the energy itself.
Climate is a subjective word. It has no quantitative values. There is nothing to 'change' in climate.
CO2 is incapable of warming the Earth. It is not possible to create energy from nothing, or to reduce entropy in any system, nor is it possible to heat a warmer surface using a colder gas.
Claiming a statistical analysis that hasn't been done is just a void argument.
Statistical math is incapable of prediction normally inherent in mathematics due to it's use of random numbers. A summary is not a crystal ball.
Temperature can vary as much as 20 deg F per mile.

You cannot have a statistical summary without raw data. That data must be published. That data must be free of biasing influences. You must have a variance declared and justified. You must have the margin of error calculate and it must accompany the summary.
NOTHING is a product of statistical analysis. The summary is not capable of prediction that is normally inherent in mathematics due to the use of random numbers. Statistical summaries are not a crystal ball.
There is NO SUCH THING as summaries without published and available raw data.

Honestly, I don't know how to respond to this. I like you, but statistics is all about using a minimum amount of data to attempt to derive a signal. It's no different than machine learning. Surely you would agree that AI is able to find patterns using minimal data? That's why there are confidence intervals and minimum sample sizes
