Subject: climate models: a flat earther's delight

Hi all,

according to this article

https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/116/39/19330.full.pdf

current climate models still use a flat earth model. In other words
they ignore the curvature of the earth which, as you all know, is
not neglible since we live on a round globe with measurable
curvature.

This represents unbelievable neglect on the part of so-called
climate science which from now on may well be called flat
earther's delight.

Very interesting. I need to use the curved earth for radio propagation work and would have thought the counterparts doing weather research would also consider the curve when doing calculations.
going to bet once this paper gets around more there will be changes in the math as we had to change the math over the decades as we learned more how radio propagates. We do rely on weather in the predictions as well as outside sources such as solar input.

Hi Leslie,

I am sure you are not the only one who "would have thought the
counterparts doing weather research would also consider the curve
when doing calculations."

It sure seems a good idea to consider the curve when you deal with
a round object. Apparently, such simplicity has not been worthy of
the IPCC .
