temperatures.
However, in comparison with the solar case, the FIR photosphere of alpha Cen A appears marginally cooler, Tmin = T160mu = 3920 + / -375 K. Beyond the minimum near 160mu, the brightness
temperatures increase and this radiation likely originates in warmer regions of the chromosphere of alpha Cen A. To the best of our knowledge this is the first time a
temperature minimum has been
directly measured on a main - sequence star other than the Sun.

directly measuring ocean acidity, but an international team of scientists writing in the journal Environmental Science & Technology described last week how satellite measurements of sea surface
temperatures, salinity and plankton activity could be combined and used to estimate pH.
But now, we can actually
measure GHG concentrations and
temperature directly.
Removing them would mean that we are no longer
measuring temperature the same way, and as such would introduce new artifacts into the statistics so that the measurement from one year wouldn't be
directly comparable to the next.

temperatures are

temperatures are extrapolated from nearby land stations.

measure your
temperature directly.
Perhaps you mean that satellites don't
measure temperature directly.
Dr. Svalgaard face the facts, and facts are, as by now you know far better than I do (thanks to the work Vukcevic has done) that: It appears that the
temperature natural change in the N. Hemisphere
directly correlates to the combined changes in two magnetic fields as
measured at the Earth's surface: http://www.vukcevic.talktalk.net/GSC1.htm To paraphrase Dr. Svalgaard of Stanford: If correlation is really good, one can live with an as yet undiscovered mechanism.
Better characterize the deep ocean to quantify the role of deep
temperature and salinity signals that contribute to AMOC variability through enhancements to the observing system that
directly measure deep ocean properties (
temperature, salinity, and velocity) such as Deep Argo, Deep gliders, and moored instrumentation.
It appears that the
temperature natural change in the N. Hemisphere
directly correlates to the combined changes in two magnetic fields as
measured at the Earth's surface The combination is physically invalid and made - up, possibly for the purpose of producing a correlation: «hmmm, let's see what combination of data would give me a correlation...»
For example, let's say that evidence convinced me (in a way that I wasn't convinced previously) that all recent changes in land surface
temperatures and sea surface
temperatures and atmospheric
temperatures and deep sea
temperatures and sea ice extent and sea ice volume and sea ice density and moisture content in the air and cloud coverage and rainfall and
measures of extreme weather were all
directly tied to internal natural variability, and that I can now see that as the result of a statistical modeling of the trends as associated with natural phenomena.
Worse, satellites don't actually
measure temperature directly; they
measure how much energy the Earth radiates, and that's converted into a
temperature.
The rms average measurement error in McCrae's method, of (+ / --RRB- 1.8 C, emerged under ideal laboratory conditions, where the water
temperature was independently determined and the marine O18 fraction was
directly measured.
Even for the most recent century, the huge data sets of
directly measured surface
temperatures have their problems, and the stories that these data tell are revised in one way or another as new ideas about the correct method of analyzing the data appear on the scene.
What they do on the Moon is
measure the sub soil surface
temperature instead (
directly on moon missions and using other long - distance methods).
This SCIENCE begins with noticing that it is kinetic energy (KE) that is not involved
directly within the processes of Turbulence that can be
measured as a
Temperature of the mass being affected by turbulence, be it within the Ocean and / or the Atmosphere.
-- You go on to say: «But the real question in all of this is why would one use a «proxy» like trends between windy - calm nights (and there's lots of hair on the wind - calm information which comes from NCEP re-analysis on a gridcell basis only) to analyze UHI when
temperatures can be
measured directly across a transect.
And, when you have fully two cycles of a 60 year oscillation evident within the higher accuracy,
directly measured data spanning the previous century, and it appears all over the place in proxy reconstructions over thousands of years as well... Then, by gum, there's a 60 year quasi-cyclic phenomenon influencing global
temperatures.
What he does not do, and should have done is plotted the change in the effect over time against some emperical
measure of either
temperature or surface heat content (either OHC
directly for when we have the data, or glacial extents, or sea levels).
The global
temperature anomaly can not be
directly measured»
Ocean heat is
directly measured by buoys that sink through the ocean,

MSU and AMSU do not

temperatures.
Climate analysis: The exterior climate during the monitoring period was evaluated by comparing local
