New paper finds climate models cannot explain the global warming stagnation over past 15 years
Divergence of climate model predicted global temperatures from real world data over the past 15 years has now exceeded the range of uncertainty claimed for the models. It is now time to admit that the models are fundamentally wrong.
Why are the models wrong? The authors offer three possibilities:

Divergence of climate model predicted global temperatures from real world data over the past 15 years has now exceeded the range of uncertainty claimed for the models. It is now time to admit that the models are fundamentally wrong.
Why are the models wrong? The authors offer three possibilities:
1. the models underestimate natural climate variability
2. the climate models fail to include important forcings such as ocean oscillations and solar amplification
3. the models assume exaggerated climate sensitivity to man-made CO2
