We get
observations from ground stations, satellites and radiosondes, which are balloons that National Weather Service forecast offices launch twice a day to
measure temperature, pressure, humidity, wind direction and wind speed.

observations measured the
temperature of the gas in the bubble at approximately 17,700 degrees Fahrenheit.

observations to crudely
measure a world's
temperature, weather patterns and clouds.
By
measuring the surface
temperature of a Kuiper Belt object, and combining this with optical
observations, its surface reflectivity and hence its diameter can be determined accurately.
Unlike the satellite
temperature record, where only a few satellites are
measuring temperatures at any given point of time, there is a large amount of redundancy in surface
temperature observations, with multiple
The new RSS v4 TLT record makes a number of changes to the time of
observation correction, as well as corrections for the change in instruments that
measure temperature from microwave sounding units (MSU) to advanced microwave sounding units (AMSU) sensors, which occurred around the year 2000.
The series of radio
observations measured the
temperature of the star's atmosphere at different heights.
Teaching points that are covered in the topic are listed below: Understand that it is important to be able to grow plants well because they provide food and other items for us To know that all food chains begin with a green plant To understand the function of the parts of a plant To understand that plants need leaves in order to grow well To plan an appropriate investigation To make careful
observations and measurements of plants growing To use simple apparatus to

temperature can affect the growth of plants To ask questions about the growth of plants To plan a fair test To write a clear conclusion
Think about what you already know about weather, look at weather forecasts and video your own school weather forecasts; do weather
observations and make collages about the seasons; have fun with shadows; make a class weather station that can
measure rainfall, wind direction and
temperature.
This report describes the evolving methods on Woods Hole stations for
measuring temperature, depth of
observation, salinity, and dissolved - oxygen concentration, and for determining station position.
LOBET: The kids
measure river
temperature and make other
observations, then let the separate baskets of leaves lie underwater in the current for three weeks.
Based on the same
observation one could argue that the hockeystick methodology is correct to pick out the bristlecones because it is the only proxy that shows a climate signal consistent with a 20th century rise in
temperature as
measured by meteorological stations.
As others have noted, the IPCC Team has gone absolutely feral about Salby's research and the most recent paper by Dr Roy Spencer, at the University of Alabama (On the Misdiagnosis of Surface
Temperature Feedbacks from Variations in Earth's Radiant Energy Balance), for one simple reason: both are based on empirical, undoctored satellite
observations, which, depending on the
measure required, now extend into the past by up to 32 years, i.e. long enough to begin evaluating real climate trends; whereas much of the Team's science in AR4 (2007) is based on primitive climate models generated from primitive and potentially unreliable land measurements and proxies, which have been «filtered» to achieve certain artificial realities (There are other more scathing descriptions of this process I won't use).
Global average surface
temperature,
measured by satellites and direct
observations, is considered a key indicator of climate change.
Turbulent processes will alter residual Kinetic Energy within a System, this residual is presented within

But what with evidence somewhat lacking on positive CO2 feed backs, the present
temperature plateau continuing, model projections of warming way out with
observation, the analogy appears a bit, well, Ehrlichean, seems to me.And then there's the bleeding of economies by costs of CO2 reduction
measures and subsidizing ineffectual, (evidence indicates even un-environmental) renewable energy policies, no gain for lotsa» pain.
This time period is too short to signify a change in the warming trend, as climate trends are
measured over periods of decades, not years.12, 29,30,31,32 Such decade - long slowdowns or even reversals in trend have occurred before in the global instrumental record (for example, 1900 - 1910 and 1940 - 1950; see Figure 2.2), including three decade - long periods since 1970, each followed by a sharp
temperature rise.33 Nonetheless, satellite and ocean
observations indicate that the Earth - atmosphere climate system has continued to gain heat energy.34
Lindzen (2011) reports that Wentz et al. (2007) used space - based
observations to
measure how evaporation changed with
temperature compared with results from models and found that in GCMs, evaporation rose 1 - 3 % for each 1 K warming, while observed evaporation rose approximately three times faster, at 5.7 %.
cit., 1936/8) refers to Birkeland's work from 1930, assuming that all warming analyses have to begin with the
observation of the Spitsbergen phenomenon, because only here the
temperature increase was
measured in the winter of 1918/19 for the first time (Scherhag, 1939); (a) There were increased Gulf Current
temperatures, particularly significant in the Barents - and East Greenland Sea.
See, the first thing to do is do determine what the
temperature trend during the recent thermometer period (1850 — 2011) actually is, and what patterns or trends represent «data» in those trends (what the earth's
temperature / climate really was during this period), and what represents random «noise» (day - to - day, year - to - random changes in the «weather» that do NOT represent «climate change»), and what represents experimental error in the plots (UHI increases in the
temperatures, thermometer loss and loss of USSR data, «metadata» «M» (minus) records getting skipped that inflate winter
temperatures, differences in sea records from different
measuring techniques, sea records vice land records, extrapolated land records over hundreds of km, surface
temperature errors from lousy stations and lousy maintenance of surface records and stations, false and malicious time - of -
observation bias changes in the information.)
In no way is this comparable to the manufacture of data where no measurements have been taken or the substitution of one
measured variable (daily mean land air
temperature) with another (instantaneous SST
observations) whose sampling method varies, is exceedingly uneven geographically, and no credible, alias - free time - series can be obtained.
We can repeat our earlier
observation that CET instrumental to 1659 - this time augmented by the reconstruction using historical records to 1538, demonstrates a
temperature profile that looks quite different to significant periods of the remainder of the Northern Hemisphere if the official version of extended climate - as epitomised by the «Hockey stick» - is taken as the appropriate set of data which it should be
measured against.
Switching from an afternoon time of
observation to a morning time of
observation would result in minimum, maximum, and mean
temperatures around 0.6 C colder previously
measured.
The value of κ can not be deduced by
observation, because
temperature feedbacks are present and can not be separately
measured.
Global average
temperature The mean surface
temperature of the Earth
measured from three main sources: satellites, monthly readings from a network of over 3,000 surface
temperature observation stations and sea surface
temperature measurements taken mainly from the fleet of merchant ships, naval ships and data buoys.
To improve the reliability of reported sea water
temperature observations, a change to an electrical resistance or thermistor thermometer, specially designed and installed to
measure the sea water
temperature and having a remote indicator on the ship's bridge, is recommended.
