the merged in situ data
without bias adjustment can have a cool bias relative to data with no ship — buoy bias.
Because ships tend to be biased warm relative to buoys and because of the increase in the number of buoys and the decrease in the number of ships, the merged in situ data
without bias adjustment can have a cool bias relative to data with no ship — buoy bias.
Figure 2.4 (Folland et al., 2001) shows simulations of global land - surface air temperature anomalies in model runs forced with SST, with and
without bias adjustments to the SST data before 1942.
Not exact matches
Finally, NIS is a landline telephone survey; although statistical
adjustments adequately compensate for noncoverage of households
without landline telephones, some nonresponse and noncoverage
bias might remain (10).
The problem, she said in a separate analysis, is that Ms. Raymond compared the achievement of individual charter students with that of groups of students from nearby public schools,
without making the statistical
adjustments necessary to account for the natural downward
biases that result from that sort of calculation.
The newer model integrations
without flux
adjustment give us indications of how far we have come in removing
biases in the model components.
Now,
without diverting into whether the
bias adjustments are «right» or not, it is clear that projected land temps when running the same model constrained with uncorrected SST * will * produce land temps that are significantly different to those produced when using
bias adjusted SST.
The fact that these
adjustments need to be made for the entire record at the same time, rather than for individual instruments as with the surface record, means there are no nearby stations
without the
adjustments which allow comparisons to check for
biases introduced by the
adjustment.
