The data were interpolated
using a kriging method (Schäfer - Neth et al. 2005), which basically takes into account data points in the vicinity of a location to be reconstructed, weighted by the ocean correlation structure.
The 1 - arc - deg NASA GSFC mascon solution data was resampled to a 998 x 1800 data array
using Kriging interpolation.
I like the idea of using breakpoint analysis to split a station's record and then
using kriging.
Monaghan et al. (2008)
used a kriging method to produce a 1 ° × 1 ° reconstruction for 1960 — 2005.

A block model with sub-cells was constructed in order to perform the resource estimation
using ordinary
kriging.
Methods
used include those that interpolate according to local correlation structure (
kriging) and reduced space methods that learn large - scale temperature patterns...
The residuals from a multiple regression are
used as input for spatial interpolation schemes such as
Kriging.
Kriging is a technique
used in spatial analysis.
Cowtan and Way circumvent both problems by
using an established geostatistical interpolation method called
kriging — but they do not apply it to the temperature data itself (which would be similar to what GISS does), but to the difference between satellite and ground data.
I
used Geostatistics by
Kriging to depict the spatial distribution of such anomaly.
Using the new and improve HADCRUT with
kriging, there has been about 0.
Cowtab and Way is clearly a better way to calculate surface temperature, because it
uses more information (i.e. UAH LT), and
kriging (rather than extrapolate over large areas).
to kokoda 6:07 pm You shall find some comments on that paper on the web site «climate dialogue» of Marcel Crook and other dutch scientists http://www.climatedialogue.org/the-missing-tropical-hot-spot/ that complements well truth n ° 9 The «
kriging» or homogeneization perpetrated by Sherwood seems to lower the credibility of the «data»
used.
The Monaghan et al. study
used the correlation structure in the ERA - 40 reanalysis (Uppala et al. 2005) to define the weights on the observational records that are applied at each gridbox on 1 ° × 1 ° degree regular grid with a
kriging method.
Switching topics, I know that there is a
kriging package available for R, and was wondering if you had ever had the chance to do an antarctic reconstruction
using it on ground station data only?
Cowtan & Way (2013) evaluated global surface warming across the globe
using a statistical method known as «
kriging» and
using satellite data to fill in the gaps where there are no temperature stations.
They also
use EOF, so that does appear to be a better methodology than
kriging, at least as [
kriging is] implemented by BEST.
Why is it important that multi-century old data, collected by hand
using data handling procedures that in general would earn a sophomore physics student a D -, at best,
using instruments wholly unsuited to the task, be massaged, corrected, infilled,
kriged, zombied, and otherwise tortured beyond recognition in order to tease out «anomalies» of small fractions of a degree / decade, if NOT for the `........
An alternative approach to the same problem would be regression
kriging where the trends are removed externally resulting in a trend surface (a polynomial function of latitude and elevation), the residuals are
kriged using ordinary
kriging, and the predictions from the trend surface and
kriging of the residuals recombined at locations of interest.
The estimates of warming since that time
using some of the data, or all of the data,
using multiple methods (CAM, RSM,
Kriging, Least Squares, IDW) all fall within narrow bounds.
First a few items... ---------- Carrick July 12, 2014 at 2:18 pm Part 3: I believe that part of the problem [with BEST] is method of interpolation
used (
kriging) and in particular the assumption that the correlation field relating spatially separated stations is azimuthally invariant.
My criticisms limited to their empirical homogenization algorithm and to the particular choice of
kriging function they
use (azimuthally symmetric, spatially invariant).
The climate scientists didn't
use climate models for the study but instead turned to observations, combining two techniques:
Kriging and linear regression.
BEST
uses a form of statistical extrapolation called
kriging to extrapolate to where they have no thermometers.
«Our data center, and future data centers, will always make
use of 100 percent clean and renewable energy sources, such as energy being generated from hydro, wind and geothermal sources,» MoonLite Project founder and CEO Eric
Krige told Digital Trends.
