Another paper in Climate Change in 2007 stated: Studies that have looked
at hemispheric and global scales conclude that any urban - related trend is an order of magnitude smaller than decadal and longer time - scale trends evident in the series (e.g., Jones et al., 1990; Peterson et al., 1999)...

Looking
at the hemispheric numbers, we can see that the first peak was actually due to a maximum in the Northern hemisphere in November 2011, while the broader 2014 peak was due to the combination of a maximum in the Southern hemisphere in early 2014 and a slight reversal of the activity decline in the Northern hemisphere.
At the hemispheric - mean scale, the «Little Ice Age» is only a moderate cooling because larger offsetting regional patterns of temperature change (both warm and cold) tend to cancel in a hemispheric or global mean.

Our examination does suggest that a slight modification to the original Mann et al. reconstruction is justfiable for the first half of the 15th century (∼ +0.05 — 0.10 º), which leaves entirely unaltered the primary conclusion of Mann et al.

Like I say, you see a richness of behaviour in the models including in some occasions behaviour that
at first sight looks not dissimilar to that highlighted in the observations by the Thompson paper and this on top of the «external control» as we called it in our 2000 paper in Science of the external forcings in a particular model which drives much of the multi-decadal
hemispheric response in these models and which, in terms of the overall global warming response, is dominated by greenhouse gases.
It is not enough to look
at global or
hemispheric means of surface temperature and note that the models are not that far from producing internal variability of the right magnitude — perhaps most existing models only do this once in a blue moon, but I can imagine increasing the variance
at low frequencies by a factor of two, say, so that the required magnitude is achieved more frequently.
Despite the result of the US presidential election and related uncertainties about trade and
hemispheric cooperation, a number of economic realities are likely to favor a free trade agenda —
at least for energy commodities and related investments, which are likely to be resistant to political winds.
Method 1: «The composite - plus - scale (CPS) method, «a dozen proxy series, each of which is assumed to represent a linear combination of local temperature variations and an additive «noise» component, are composited (typically
at decadal resolution;...) and scaled against an instrumental
hemispheric mean temperature series during an overlapping «calibration» interval to form a
hemispheric reconstruction.
However, citing a paper regarding a temperature record

Furthermore, if we look
at the SH non-smoothed annual datafile and accept that the years 1944 - 1945 were the beginning of a trend - shift for global temperatures, we see that in these years the southern

There is little Arctic amplification (relative to the global or
