Not exact matches
The results over time may vary as a function of a) the input data (which change due to
corrections, increasing archived data, changes in homogeneity adjustments,

These changes have resulted in a time - dependent
bias in the global SST record, and
various corrections have been developed to account for the
bias (18).
