The historical sea surface temperature data needs expanding and cleaning up.

Climatology
data from the
historical record give a picture of the fluctuations in
sea -
surface temperature over the last 160 years.
Like almost all
historical climate
data, ship - board
sea surface temperatures (SST) were not collected with long term climate trends in mind.
In summary, the

Investigators that use the data [to try this] bear a heavy, perhaps impossible, responsibility for ensuring that the potential instrument bias has not contaminated their r

For a more general discussion of uncertainty in
historical SST measurements and
data sets see: Kennedy, J.J. (2013) A review of uncertainty in in situ measurements and
data sets of
sea -
surface temperature.
The figure shows that the impact of the adjustment to remove the cold bias from bucket
sea surface temperature measurements warms the
historical data, decreasing the amount of global warming the
data indicate.
The «POGA - H» model also uses
historical data for climate forcing, but constrains
sea surface temperature in the tropical eastern Pacific (the ENSO region) to follow their
historical values.
They first sorted the
data into regional patterns, and then compared the temporal behavior of these patterns to common
historical climate indices — such as well - known patterns of atmospheric circulation,
sea surface temperatures, or even large - scale warming.
