1.  The Myth and Its Flaw

Judith Curry is a prominent critic of mainstream science on anthropogenic (man-made) global warming (AGW) [1 - 4]. A number of parties champion her positions and cite her as an accurate source of climate science information [88 - 94], including the George C. Marshall Institute [91], the Global Warming Policy Foundation [90], The Daily Mail [92], The Washington Times [94], John Stossel [93], and the "lukewarmer [95]" Matt Ridley [89]. Curry's reliable representation of scientific research is the myth this blogpost addresses.

1.  The Myth and Its Flaw

Climate models predict that in moist tropical areas, a region of the lower atmosphere known as the troposphere will warm more than Earth's surface. This region of greater warming is known as the "hot spot". Judith Curry, a critic of mainstream climate science, casts doubt on the hot spot's existence. She also casts doubt on a recent satellite-based analysis of tropospheric warming. Curry's claims on these topics constitute the myth this blogpost rebuts.
