You say both that actual average global temperature can not be measured and that you know what it is.
If the actual average global temperature can not be measured how do you know know that it is cooling?

Not exact matches

(2) What proportion of model runs from a multi-model ensemble produce global mean temperatures at or below (on average) the actual measurement for the last 10 years?
But I would really have preferred if they had written in Helvetica, 30, Bold that the uncertainty band is not on the actual, as measured in the field, global average temperature, but on their matematical model of it, and because of the steps that model contain, probably an order of magnitude too optimistic with respect to the actual temperature.
In my experimentation with techniques to «showcase» the robustness of the global - average temperature results, I found that it is also important to show the actual number of stations reporting data for each year.
Three of the four global average temperatures indeed are decreasing in their trends (although the actual global mean temperatures are still warmer than the previous decades).
And yet, when you do trends of global data you are averaging air temperatures over intervals where the heat content is not continuous, and thus the trend that is the average temperature does not show the actual trend of the heat content.
What I mean is simply that we have as much actual empirical evidence for the existence of even one unicorn in this world as we have for the basic AGW claim that more CO2 in the atmosphere can, will and does cause a net rise in Earth's average global surface temperature, i.e. NONE whatsoever!
When he presented his misleading graph, when he said 97 % of climate scientists agree, (knowing full well the actual situation that the number is bogus and misleading,) when he mentions adjustments to satellite data but not to surface temperatures with major past cooling and absurd derived precision to.005 * C, when he defends precision in surface global averages but ignores major estimates of temps and krigging in Arctic, Africa, Asia and oceans or Antarctica, he forfeits credibility.
It showed, if I remember correctly, how a pretty good correlation between calculated and actual global average temperatures could be obtained for the last century using the NASA graphs of various forcings, here: http://data.giss.nasa.gov/modelforce/RadF.gif
The smaller the grid boxes, the better the average temperature of the box will reflect the actual temperature at any given point, leading to a more accurate estimate global temperature when you add them all together.
Clearly, to use a single value (the global average annual average surface temperature trend) to characterize global warming is a naive approach and is misleading policymakers on the actual complexity of the climate system.
The problem is that we are looking for the average of the actual global temperature changes for Earth where some areas warm more rapidly than others and some areas cool.
C. warmer than it was with respect to the start of the industrial revolution, I believe that it would be necessary to use actual average global land - ocean surface temperature data (which would be imperfectly known that far back).
I am still waiting for word on what the global temperature anomaly for the month was, but I suspect it will be fairly close to normal, which means that on average the temperature of the Earth will come in at ~ 12.0 °C which is 4 °C colder than it will be in 6 months from now, but because of how they talk about temperature, I will be the only one pointing out the difference between the actual temperature and the anomaly temperature.
Ken: The 33 C figure is derived from looking at the global energy balance, i.e., comparing the actual average surface temperature to the average surface temperature that one would of necessity have to have if the Earth were otherwise the same (in particular, same albedo) but there was no greenhouse effect.
The black line shows the actual observed global average temperatures.
But while «global warming» itself sounds big and scary, the actual numbers put to the planet's average temperature rise sounds rather small - maybe 1 ˚C averaged out over a century.
But the actual change of the global mean temperature in the last 77 years (in average) is so tiny that the place - dependent noise still safely beats the «global warming trend», yielding an ambiguous sign of the temperature trend that depends on the place.»
They are running too hot an after 22 years since 1990 actual global average temperature fell below the lowest model prediction.
Again, the heavy black line is the actual temperature record, while the heavy red line is the models» average calculated global temperature with CO2 and other greenhouse gases as well as natural forces («With GHGs»).
If global warming does not fit the observable temperature measurements, then a new «reality» must be invented to fit the ideology: actual temperature records must be altered or dismissed — hundreds of temperature - reporting stations in colder areas worldwide were eliminated from the global network so the average temperature is higher than when those stations were included link.
The heavy black line is the actual temperature record, while the heavy blue line is the models» average calculated global temperature with only natural forcings («Without GHGs»).
