Getting an accurate measurement of air temperature across the entire planet is not simple.

Basically, everything that is happening in the ocean, it's much more important than the rise of air temperature.

Urban climates are distinguished from those of less built - up areas by differences of air temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, and amount of precipitation.

By using a sensor which has a longer response time than the fluctuations of the air temperature, the sensor «averages» these fluctuations.

Surface temps are a combination of the air temperature about a meter above the ground and the surface temperature of the ocean.

With the reduced warming of the atmosphere will the warming of the oceans slow down or is the CO2 concentration warming the oceans independently of the air temperature?

The average absolute value of the air temperature close to the Earth's surface hit a new record in July.

Pacific Decadal Oscillation is obviously one of the key internal mechanisms because it drives the way Pacific Ocean (widest Ocean on Earth and therefore main heat storage) is exchanging heat with the atmosphere, in the mid to long term (50 to 70 years period), hereby significantly influencing the evolution of air temperatures over tens of years» timescale.

One reason, as other Antarctic research has shown, is that the speed of loss of Antarctic ice is to a large extent not a function of air temperature in any case, but of ocean heat intruding beneath the vast shelves of floating ice around the edges.

Detailed studies of the energy balance and ablation of the Zongo and Chacaltaya glaciers support the importance of air temperature increase, and identify the increase in downward infrared radiation as the main way that the effect of the warmer air is communicated to the glacier surface [Wagnon et al. 1999; Francou et al, 2003].

If tropical glaciers continue to retreat despite an increase in precipitation, that will constitute a powerful case for the role of air temperature.
