«The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said
global land surface temperatures in January and April were likely the warmest since records began in 1880, at more than 1 degree Celsius higher than average for those months.
The challenge will be settled using the NASA GISS
mean global land surface temperatures for the conventional climate averaging period (defined by the World Meteorological Organization as 30 years) ending on December 31, 2016.
So Australia's BOM data and NZ's NIWA data, both «adjusted» out of their cotton picking minds whether needed or not and generally butchered [and thats being polite,] around with until it bears little relationship with reality accounts for at least one fifth and close to nearly one quarter of the total
global land surface temperature data.
In the scenario with the most carbon emissions, the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere skyrocketed from its current level, about 390 parts per million, to 920 ppm, and
global land surface temperature rose by 4.9 ˚C above 2005 levels.
In particular the proud abhorrence of using models, to validate observations and explain correlations, the forest level comparisons, ignoring anything at a finer level than
global land surface temperature anomalies, drives a huge stake through the paper....
If the climatological
average global land surface temperature goes up again in 2016, setting another new record, the party that accepts my challenge must donate $ 25,000 to a science education nonprofit of my choice.
The Berkeley Lab study found that
global land surface temperature decreased by a modest amount — an average of roughly 0.01 degrees Celsius, based on an albedo increase of.003 averaged over all global land surfaces.
The
mean global land surface temperature in the Met Office Hadley Centre Global Environment Model version 2 - Earth System (HadGEM2 - ES) RCP 8.5 simulation rises to above current values, covering almost the entire spread of all GCM × RCP forcings.
Global land surface temperature data (green) with linear trends applied to the time frames 1973 to 1980, 1980 to 1988, 1988 to 1995, 1995 to 2001, 1998 to 2005, 2002 to 2010 (blue), and 1973 to 2010 (red).
The January
global land surface temperature was also second highest on record, while the global ocean surface temperature was third highest.
Separately,
the global land surface temperature was 1.89 °C (3.40 °F) above average, the highest on record for December, surpassing the previous record set in 2006 by 0.48 °C (0.86 °F).
The January — March 2018
global land surface temperature was also the smallest in the last four years and the sixth highest in the 139 - year record at 1.21 °C (2.18 °F) above the 20th century average.
The global land surface temperature for March 2018 was 1.49 °C (2.68 °F) above average and the seventh highest since global records began in 1880.
Separately,
the global land surface temperature of 58.2 degrees F was 1.33 degrees F above the 20th century average of 56.9 degrees F, and ranked as the fourth warmest August on record.
Now the story is «The world's ocean surface temperature was... the warmest on record averaged for any June - August» and «
the global land surface temperature of 58.2 degrees F was 1.33 degrees F above the 20th century average of 56.9 degrees F, and ranked as the fourth warmest August on record.»
Average ocean surface temperature was the warmest on record for April and
the global land surface temperature was the third warmest on record for the month.
The global land surface temperature showed more than double that amount of warming, running 1.28 °C above the 20th century average, and was the third warmest April on record.
The global land surface temperature was the 11th highest for October at 0.99 °C (1.78 °F) above the 20th century average of 9.3 °C (48.7 °F).
The global land surface temperature was 1.30 °C (2.34 °F) above the 20th century average of 9.0 °C (48.1 °F) and ties with 2015 as the second highest value for the year - to - date, behind 2016.
The global land surface temperature was the ninth highest on record at 1.10 °C (1.98 °F) above the 20th century average of 5.9 °C (42.6 °F).
The global land surface temperature was 1.33 °C (2.39 °F) above the 20th century average of 9.3 °C (48.7 °F) and the second highest January — October temperature since global records began in 1880, behind 2016.
The researchers find a strong correlation between North Atlantic temperature cycles lasting decades, and
the global land surface temperature.
