The time resolution of the reconstruction is 5 orders of magnitude longer than the resolution of the
land surface record.
Certainly surface recording systems can't be reliable for a long list of reasons, the greatest of which is no stationary recording systems in the 70 % of the earth covered by water.
These will necessarily differ a bit
from surface records, since we wouldn't expect the temperatures of the surface and miles up in the atmosphere to necessarily be identical.
This simple test shows that the record warmth seen
in surface records in recent is best thought of as a continuation of a long term warming trend amplified (but not caused by) a large El Niño event.
While his approach is grounded in current human clinical practice
with surface recording arrays, the large scale and requirements of the NESD program require a dramatic departure from prior electrical approaches to brain interfaces.
Second, due to the time lag and the stretched out response time
for surface records, you will get spurious results using annual numbers.
Over the years the collective output of climate skeptics, all the attacks
on surface records and accusing scientists of lying for funding, has probably been slowly shaping scientist's perception of climate skeptics quite negatively.
«Our findings should help put to rest the controversy surrounding the new NOAA ERSSTv4 record in recent years, as it agrees quite well with instrumentally homogenous
sea surface records from buoys, satellites and Argo floats,» Hausfather said.
Suffice it to say that the more recent satellite recordings do confirm a warming of the air until recently, albeit less than suggested
by surface records and far less than that anticipated by climate models.
Stephen Collins, the 7th Heaven actor who appears to admit inappropriate contact with several young children in a
newly surfaced recording, says his...
A couple new companies have
surfaced recording Mega Drive and other consoles following our strict and precise recording mantras and putting them out on vinyl.
The works will be installed on the gallery's roof terrace where they will weather and decompose to varying degrees, their
delicate surfaces recording their exposure and deterioration.
Unfortunately, the long -
term surface records are the only comparisons we can make because there were no satellites in 1910, so we have no way of knowing what the Arctic troposphere temperatures were back then.
... The research showed that somewhere around one - half of the warming in the
U.N. surface record was explained by economic factors, which can be changes in land use, quality of instrumentation, or upkeep of records.
With all of the attacks on the conflicting results of «the satellite record
vs surface record» and the public availability of UAH data and results, I find this hard to believe.
I will bet that once the next Nino hits and we get a
new surface record, it will be back to the same tune.
I don't have the contents of my computer hard drive here with me, but a better bet would be from a 10 - year average of some accepted metric (I'd prefer satellites but Hadley CRUT would be OK if we just had to use the old
dinosaur surface record).
Noticing, however, that the
only surface record with truly global coverage, and the satelite record with the greatest covered area both show positive trends shows the negative trends of the others to be due to information they exclude rather than a property of global temperatures.
The oldest charcoal date at the
soil surface recorded in the Rivière Boniface area is from charcoal partly buried in mineral soil (3200 yr BP according to Payette & Morneau 1993).
[Update, March 3: Lindzen's original 2008 chart showed the
HadCRU surface record, not the UAH satellite record.
Satellite records show some stagnation of temperatures in recent years, somewhere between the land and
ocean surface records.
«Their inquiry's central aim will be to establish a comprehensive view of just how far the original data has been «adjusted» by the three
main surface records: those published by the Goddard Institute for Space Studies, the U.S. National Climate Data Center and Hadcrut,» Booker reports.
The
NOAA surface record, on the other hand, are what is known as composite records, which takes temperature information from a variety of sources — surface weather stations, satellites, ocean buoys and more — and combines them.
A group of skeptical auditors wanted to make sure that when the UEA
CRU surface record was putatively adjusted for urban heating effects, that these effects were estimated robustly and that corrections were in fact correctly implemented.
«There is an effect,» Schmidt said, «but it is hard to detect
in surface records, and is certainly not responsible for recent trends.»
