Interesting Post at RealClimate about Modeled Absolute Global Surface Temperatures
We recently presented and discussed modeled and observed global surface temperatures in absolute terms. See the post On the Elusive Absolute Global Mean Surface Temperature – A Model-Data Comparison. The…
Early twentieth-century warming linked to tropical Pacific wind strength
Guest Post by Bob Tisdale From the ENSO-can-contribute-to-global-warming department, we have a new paper from the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and the University of Arizona (UA). It’s Thompson…
Quick Look at the DATA for the New NOAA Sea Surface Temperature Dataset
Guest Post by Bob Tisdale UPDATE: There was an error in the November 2014 update of the ERSST.v4 sea surface temperature data supplied by NOAA. It impacted the data presented…
Researchers Find Northeast Pacific Surface Warming (1900-2012) Caused By Changes in Atmospheric Circulation, NOT Manmade Forcings
Guest Post by Bob Tisdale UPDATE: See the update at the end of the post. One of the authors of the paper has joined us here at WUWT. # #…
The 2-Deg Global-Warming Limit
Guest Post by Bob Tisdale Politicians from around the globe gather annually in the UNFCCC meetings so they can propose and fail to come to worthwhile agreements on how to…
November 2014 Global Surface (Land+Ocean) and Lower Troposphere Temperature Anomaly & Model-Data Difference Update

NOAA Is Updating Their Sea Surface Temperature Dataset
Guest Post by Bob Tisdale Why is that a big deal? 70% of NOAA’s land+ocean surface temperature dataset is sea surface temperature data. NOAA recently published the first of the…
UKMO Hadley Centre Datasets Appear Split on Whether 2014 Will Have Record-Warm Global Sea Surfaces
Guest Post by Bob Tisdale A few days ago, we showed that global ocean surfaces are, just barely, at record warm levels in 2014, according to the two NOAA sea…
The Nonsensical “Just What AGW predicts” and Other Claims By Alarmists about “Record-High” Global Sea Surface Temperatures in 2014
Guest Post by Bob Tisdale Many of the visitors here at ClimateObservations and at WattsUpWithThat also spend time arguing with climate alarmists at other websites around the blogosphere. With global…
California Niño/Niña
Guest Post by Bob Tisdale This is a quick post about a coupled ocean-atmosphere phenomenon that had previously not been described. The paper flew by under the radar back in…
Meteorological Annual Mean (Dec-Nov) Global Sea Surface Temperatures Set a Record High in 2014 By a Whopping…
Guest Post by Bob Tisdale Monthly sea surface temperature data from NOAA (ERSST.v3b) are available online well before the global land air+sea surface temperature suppliers (NASA GISS and NOAA NCDC)…
