Sentences with phrase «radiosonde data sets»

«In this work, we evaluate the agreement between MSU and homogenized radiosonde data sets on multiyear (predominantly 5 - year) time scales and find that MSU data sets are often more similar to each other than to radiosonde data sets and vice versa.
Four fifty - year - old independent radiosonde data sets measuring atmospheric pressure, temperature, wind speed and direction in those latitudes show no tropospheric hot spot where there should be one according to AGW gospel.
The paper discusses four different sets of data on satellite atmospheric monitoring (all producing slightly different end products), two radiosonde data sets (from UK Hadley Centre and University of Vienna, both adjusted for inhomogeneities — and that opens another can of worms), four different surface temperature data sets (based on reconstructed sea surface temperature data sets from Hadley Centre, again, and Climate Research Unit).
No, you are wrong, RSS is consistent with models only if we look at global trends, but RSS trend for tropical «hot - spot» is out of 2 standard deviations limit of the model mean, just like UAH and all «uncorrected» radiosonde data sets.
Even using your 2 - sigma levels, 4 of the 7 radiosonde data sets have trend averages that lie outside the 95 % confidence interval for the models.
In the upper - air field, this difference of approach has been very obvious, and great efforts have been expended to produce corrections to the older radiosonde data sets.
This implies that a typical radiosonde data set has only a 10.4 — 10.6 % chance of being that far below the model predictions, in the absence of systematic deviations.
I understood from the beginning that each radiosonde data set involves systematic differences in the way the data is processed.
This implies that a typical radiosonde data set has only a 10.4 — 10.6 % chance of being that far below the model predictions...
For simplicity, I will use the data mean and the average sigma of the data sets to represent a «typical» radiosonde data set.
-- 1.87 is the clear - sky, or the all - sky annual mean infrared optical thickness; — if clear - sky, how the cloudless cases were selected out from the radiosonde data set; — if it is the clear + cloudy (all - sky), how did he get it as global average value, when the cloud infrared optical depth is infinite (in half of the cases); — if 1.87 is for all - sky, how much is the clear - sky value (if he got it).

Not exact matches

Other, more stable data sets, such as satellite, radiosonde and ocean temperatures yield smaller warming trends.
In the third paper this week, Sherwood et al report on an apparent bias in the daytime readings of these radiosondes which, again, appears to have suppressed the trends in the data sets (Steve discusses this more fully in an accompanying piece).
It turns out that the radiosonde data used in this paper (version 1.2 of the RAOBCORE data) does not have the full set of adjustments.
Other, more stable data sets, such as satellite, radiosonde and ocean temperatures yield smaller warming trends.
(2) The scientific community should perform a more comprehensive analysis of the uncertainties inherent in the surface, radiosonde, and satellite data sets.
From these daily values the monthly mean zonal wind components were calculated for the levels 70, 50, 40, 30, 20, 15, and 10 hPa and a data set from 1953 to the present was produced by combining the observations of the three radiosonde stations Canton Island (closed 1967), Gan / Maledive Islands (closed 1975), and Singapore (data file: qbo.dat).
If no good calibration can be obtained, then the satellite data is measuring a different quantity than the radiosonde data and the two data sets should not be merged or spliced by any method.
