Experiments conducted in 1992 using NASA's Cosmic Background Explorer provided the first images
of the temperature variations, and later
observations from
other instruments hinted at the presence
of a peak.
«
Other spectroscopic
instruments have flown in space before but none have had this programmable multi-object capability that enables
observation of up to 100 objects simultaneously, which means much more scientific investigating can get done in less time.
The orbiter's
other three
instruments have a number
of test
observations scheduled during 20 — 28 November.
This involves a combination
of satellite
observations (when different satellites captured temperatures in both morning and evening), the use
of climate models to estimate how temperatures change in the atmosphere over the course
of the day, and using reanalysis data that incorporates readings from surface
observations, weather balloons and
other instruments.
Do the raw data figures in the paper include time
of observation bias adjustment and / or any
other similar «
instrument» - like adjustments?
I've read the Watts paper a bit more and I don't think it applies TOB (time
of observation) bias adjustment or
other instrument adjustments -LRB-?).
Some marine
observations are improving in quality and number — SST is particularly well served by a range
of different satellite
instruments, the moored buoy arrays and a large number
of surface drifters — while
others are declining or being maintained.
Having worked with many
of the scientists in question, I can say with certainty that there is no grand conspiracy to artificially warm the earth; rather, scientists are doing their best to interpret large datasets with numerous biases such as station moves,
instrument changes, time
of observation changes, urban heat island biases, and
other so - called inhomogenities that have occurred over the last 150 years.
Global temperatures are adjusted to account for the effects
of station moves,
instrument changes, time
of observation (TOBs) changes, and
other factors (referred to as inhomogenities) that cause localized non-climatic biases in the instrumental record.
The Scripps team used NASA's CERES satellite
instruments, as well as
observations of sea ice cover made with
other satellites.
The first
observation is that EU law
instruments or arguments are not necessarily raised in intra-EU arbitrations, and a quick glance
of the publicly available awards indicate that this holds true with respect to a large number
of other intra-EU arbitrations.
