RealClimate did a nice entry on this paper which contains a graph showing what the global temperature would look like without the El Nino Southern Oscillation signature.

As you can see, the warming trend remains roughly the same, but the 1998 temperature spike is no longer there. There is still a warming trend over the past decade, but as with the non-corrected data, it's not terribly significant.
What do you make of these results?
