These tests show that standard climate models are rejected by time series data on global temperatures. Finally, we update and extend previous statistical analysis of temperature data (Dagsvik et al., 2020). Using theoretical arguments and statistical tests we find, as in Dagsvik et al. (2020), that the effect of man-made CO2 emissions does not appear to be strong enough to cause systematic changes in the temperature fluctuations during the last 200 years.

didn't read the article, but :

"... to cause systematic changes in the temperature fluctuations during the last 200 years."

they seem to talk about fluctuations, not extremes. Are they ?

Not enough words, or perhaps these are specific terms of art in some community. Fluctuation could be night to day, winter to summer, etc. Or, one errant word by a non-native speaker can throw the whole interpretation off.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It appears to be straightforward denialism.

Remember, the denialism backed with statistical evidence is called science.

As opposed to scientific consensus, which is the opposite of science: faith in experts.
