Additionally, the Bureau maintains multiple temperature datasets — analysed in different ways — to provide a consistency check on the accuracy of temperature observations.

Not exact matches

It is therefore erroneous to suggest that the estimate of the global average ocean temperature is given by the instrument accuracy divided by the square root of the number of observations (as you would if the observations were of the same quantity):

«[it is] erroneous to suggest that the estimate of the global average ocean temperature is given by the instrument accuracy divided by the square root of the number of observations (as you would if the observations were of the same quantity).»

The issue of tropospheric temperature amplification remains to be completely resolved, but disparities between predictions and observations have diminished as instrument biases have been corrected, and it is not unreasonable to expect that further improvements in instrumentation accuracy will largely eliminate the remaining disparities.

In order to estimate globally averaged temperature changes with a high degree of accuracy, it is necessary to have a broad spatial distribution of observations that are made with high precision.break

In these books the authors try to quantify - by physical observation of the current circumstances and historic records - the accuracy or not of the temperatures in a specific city.

How meaningful is that when the records are 0.01 * C and the accuracy of global temperatures with little arctic, little anarctic, Africa, Asia, South Atlantic and Pacific Ocean observations?
