The idea is to define area masks as a function of the emissions data and calculate the average trend — two methods were presented (averaging over the area
then calculating the trend, or calculating the trends and averaging them over the area).
Then I calculated the trend in the adjustment averaged over the stations in each grid cell on the globe, to determine whether the adjustments were increasing or decreasing the temperature trend.
I then calculated the trends from 1970 to every month to see when they'd fall below the 1970 - 1998 trend.
It is also evident that natural variations added to warming between 1976 and 1998 — even if you simply remove the ENSO end states from the record and
then calculate trend.

As I have mentioned previously I simply run a nightly scan of Long and Short stock candidates hitting 52 week highs / lows and keep note of these stocks and over the course of the coming days and weeks I look for which stocks keep hitting the parameters of my scans before taking a closer look at the chart, once I see there is a clean smooth
trend be it going up or down I
then calculate from that afternoons closing price and where the stop loss would need to be positioned on the first day the trade is placed in line with my risk management and

then I looked at the
trends in each of these timeseries and
calculated the ratios.
I
then put those figures in a spreadsheet,
calculated the
trend (y =.1213 x), subtracted again by eye to get the difference (total off by.3) and

Nick, So as a favour, could you modify the code to
calculate the 4th root of temperature,
trend that, and
then compare to the temperature
trend?
Note: Using Excel and the U.S. temperature dataset from this source, one can
calculate the monthly temperature anomalies from the absolute temperatures (used the 1901 - 2000 baseline for each month); Excel's slope function will
then provide the
trends for each time period; and
then Excel can plot the resulting
trend columns.
If you used a shorter length of data to
calculate the linear
trend,
then you can get either a «warming
trend» or a «cooling
trend», simply depending on when you start and end your analysis.
If he did it the standard way,
then he simply took the data and
calculated the probability of obtaining the same
trend, or a more extreme one, if there was no warming - i.e. if temperatures really did follow a random walk.
To demonstrate this, I wrote a program to
calculate the OLS
trends from 1970 (the year lolwot first used) to each successive month and
then graph the 30 most recent years worth of results.
Chart # 1 had 1919 - 1943 anomaly plot adjusted to start at same anomaly point as 1991 - 2015 period; chart # 2 linear
trends are based off plots of chart # 1; chart # 3 uses 5 - year averages
calculated from each period's anomaly dataset and
then the 1919 - 1943 5 yr average was adjusted (i.e. offset) to start at same anomaly point as 1991 - 2015 5 yr average; chart # 4 cumulative differences calculation: the December 31, 1943 anomaly minus the December 31, 1918 anomaly and the December 31, 2015 anomaly minus the December 31, 1990 anomaly (both calculations covering a full 300 months).
One way to
calculate this theoretically would be to produce a time series containing a linear 0.2 ºC
trend + noise with similar properties to the global surface temperature series,
then find out what length of «time» would be needed before you can definitively say that every
trend drawn is pretty close to the actual 0.2 ºC
trend.
Then in order to think that this
calculated value is important, you have to ignore the statistical range that shows that the chance of the cooling
trend being real doesn't pass textbook standard tests.
If you choose to ignore the data from the fastest warming areas,
then you can
calculate a cooling
trend.
The Met Office says that the
trend since 1998 is about +0.04 °C a decade: this sure sounds like a slowdown, but if you use a shorter time period to
calculate your
trend then the statistical range is bigger.
I
calculated the
trends and the R ^ 2 for the series and
then looked at the goodness of fit of the data using a chi square test.
I
calculated the cycles using 1850 - 1950, as you did, and
then used a
trend of 0.42 for the entire reconstruction.

trend in the solar variability, which is
then superposed with the 11 - year activity cycle
calculated from the sunspot number.
Notes: Excel was used to
calculate and plot the moving sea level per century curves and fitted
trends (Excel slope function produced
trends based on moving 360 - month periods for each month in the dataset;
then converted to per century
trends (inches) for each month).
I
then loaded that data into R and
calculated the
trend slope, standard error of that slope, the acf and finally the adjusted
trend slope CIs using the Nychka procedure from Santer et al. (2008) with the AR1 factor.
And, would adding greenhouse gases change the lapse rate in some way which would bias the TLT algorithm which Christy
then uses to
calculate the TLT to assess the temperature
trends?

trend validity if you can
calculate the lentgh of this period?
And
then we have predicting stuff, more often called predictive analytics or legal analytics, where given enough good data these products can identify relationships, patterns and
trends and can statistically
calculate a probable outcome, decision, risk or opportunity.
