1) Real
world temperature observations which are diverging from model expectations more and more as time passes
Not exact matches
They could also record a planet's passage in front of and then behind its star, using the difference between the two
observations to crudely measure a
world's
temperature, weather patterns and clouds.
The system uses satellite
observations of the timing and intensity of vegetation activity and how this relates to
temperature and soil moisture to classify the
world's vegetation into 24 biome types.
The researchers looked at real -
world observations and confirmed that this
temperature pattern does correspond with the double - peaked jet stream and waveguide patter associated with persistent extreme weather events in the late spring and summer such as droughts, floods and heat waves.
From 1966 to 2003 the modeled mean
world ocean
temperature in the upper 700 m increased 0.097 Â °C and by 0.137 Â °C according to
observations (Levitus et al., 2005); the modeled mean
temperature adjusted for sea ice in the corresponding layer of the Arctic Ocean increased 0.203 Â °C.
If the predicted cooling by la Nina had not occurred then 2008 would probably have been the same
temperature (given the uncertainties) as every year since 2001 and that in itself would require explanation.I am broadly in favour of the global warmingCO2 hypothesis but I know it is just that, a hypothesis — and that needs testing against real
observations in the physical
world.

To conduct its analysis, GISS uses publicly available data from 6,300 meteorological stations around the
world; ship - and buoy - based
observations of sea surface
temperature; and Antarctic research station measurements.
This essay is an attempt to link real
world observations (the failure of surface
temperatures to rise in tandem with atmospheric CO2) to basic physics and thereby show why the radiative characteristics of Greenhouse Gases can not increase the surface
temperature of a planet when atmospheric mass, the strength of the gravitational field and the power of insolation at the top of the atmosphere remain the same.
«That was one of the most incredible
temperature observations I have ever seen and it is one of the most extreme readings ever in the
world,» stated AccuWeather Meteorologist Anthony Sagliani.»
To conduct its analysis, GISS uses publicly available data from three sources: weather data from more than a thousand meteorological stations around the
world; satellite
observations of sea surface
temperature; and Antarctic research station measurements.
A new NASA and University of Tasmania study combined the ship's 135 - plus - year - old measurements of ocean
temperatures with modern
observations to get a picture of how the
world's ocean has changed since the Challenger's voyage.
The most basic is that there are more real -
world observations, including global emissions of CO2 and aerosols and readings at
temperature stations and SST buoys, leading to new values for stats like globally averaged
temperature anomaly, and the like.
Just ask the
world's farmers «
Observations by farmers in Africa, Asia and Latin America confirm reports of rising
temperatures and extreme weather» http://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2013/sep/27/ipcc-climate-change-

The
temperature analysis produced at GISS is compiled from weather data from more than 1,000 meteorological stations around the
world, satellite
observations of sea - surface
temperature, and Antarctic research station measurements.
soundly based in actual
temperature observations of the real
world... while yours seems to be largely dreamt up as a consequence of untried and unproven models.
Firstly, on a factual matter, the OHC comparison which I published above...... was not intended to be a comparison with real -
world observations, only a comparison with the GISS E ensemble mean result, which should correspond to the reported GISS E
temperature profile which was simultaneously matched.
The
temperature analysis produced at GISS is compiled from weather data from more than 1,000 meteorological stations around the
world, satellite
observations of sea surface
temperature and Antarctic research station measurements.
I like borehole data as they seem to reflect real
world observations and instrumental records which demonstrate that
temperatures have been rising for some 300 years, not just the last century.
As we know, there is a diurnal (day / night)
temperature, and
observation protocol changes, as known occurred during the
world wars.
A wide range of other
observations (such as reduced Arctic sea ice extent and increased ocean heat content) and indications from the natural
world (such as poleward shifts of
temperature - sensitive species of fish, mammals, insects, etc.) together provide incontrovertible evidence of planetary - scale warming.
Real -
world observations indicate that elevated CO2 and elevated
temperatures are having a positive effect on most corals.
3) However, even if the actual variance in TSI during that period was less than 4 Watts per square metre the fact is that various changes in
temperature trend did occur and the shape of the chart would remain so on the basis of real
world observations we must accept that the lower the range of TSI involved then the more sensitive the Earth is as a water based thermometer.
Since ocean
temperature anomalies in the canonical Niño 3.4 region are now above 2 C — which are record values for the calendar month and not too far from their highest values ever observed at any time of year — current
observations in the real
world suggests that the models are very much on track.
Unfortunately, we are stuck with the historical
temperature record, where there are only a handful of stations in the
world that have remained at the exact same location with the exact same instrument and
observation time with no major changes to micro - or meso - scale environments over the last 100 + years.
A warmer
world is expected to have more extreme rainfall occurrences because the amount of water vapor that the atmosphere holds increases rapidly with
temperature, a tendency confirmed by
observations.
(This one includes the dynamite John Christy graph showing the rapidly growing divergence of climate model global
temperature forecasts with real
world observations.)
«NOAA stands accused by the two researchers of strategically deleting cherry - picked, cooler - reporting weather
observation stations from the
temperature data it provides the
world through its National Climatic Data Center (NCDC).
