impart a slight cooling. Consequently, a line drawn from an El Niño year to a subsequent La Niña year will almost always show a cooling – a fact well known to the climate disinformers (though they are not so quick to show the uncertainties in such cherry picks!). El Niño events enhance global warming (as in 1998, 2010, 2016 etc.)

Cool dust grains. In their study, Benisty’s team present the latest observations of PDS70 by ALMA, which can pick up millimetre wavelengths emitted by cool dust grains. Among these were observations of hydrogen-alpha light emission, which only occurs in regions where hydrogen is being ionized. With resolutions as high as 2.3
