UPDATED: Do the Adjustments to Land Surface Temperature Data Increase the Reported Global Warming Rate?

Guest Post by Bob Tisdale This is an update of the post published a week ago here (WattsUpWithThat cross post is here). That earlier post included “raw” unadjusted data based…

Do the Adjustments to Land Surface Air Temperature Data Increase the Global Warming Rate?

Guest Post by Bob Tisdale Quick Answer:  Over the long term, the answer is yes, and the differences between datasets are noticeable. Over shorter terms, the answer depends on the…

Do the Adjustments to Sea Surface Temperature Data Lower the Global Warming Rate?

Guest Post by Bob Tisdale Quick answer:  Over the long term, the answer is yes, but for shorter terms it depends on the sea surface temperature dataset and time period.…

Yet Even More Nonsense from Grant Foster (Tamino) et al. on the Bias Adjustments in the New NOAA Pause-Buster Sea Surface Temperature Dataset

Guest Post by Bob Tisdale UPDATE: It was pointed out in a comment that the model-data comparison in the post was skewed. I was comparing modeled marine air temperature minus…

NOAA/NCEI Temperature Anomaly Adjustments Since 2010, Pray They Don't Alter It Any Further

In fact, we found that 89 percent of the stations—nearly 9 of every 10—fail to meet the National Weather Service’s own siting requirements …

Hidden Behind Climate Policies, Data From Nonexistent Temperature Stations

Hundreds of ‘ghost’ climate stations are no longer operational; instead they are assigned temperatures from surrounding stations.

Met Office Uses Junk Temperature Measurements to Fill “World Treasure” 350-Year Temperature Record

…two of the three measuring stations currently used to add to this scientific treasure are taken from near-junk class 4 sites that come with official ‘uncertainties’ of up to 2°C.
