Editorial
In Search of a CO2-Induced Increase in the Mean Rate-of-Rise of Global Sea Level: As more data become available, and as more researchers strive to decipher what those data imply, the search appears ever more futile.

Subject Index Summary
Precipitation (Variability: Europe): Climate alarmists contend that global warming is responsible for creating more frequent and greater extremes of various types of weather. This summary investigates this claim as it pertains to precipitation variability in Europe.
