Carrying on from the previous post re UHI in China, it is fascinating that the Jones HadCRUT2 data has an amazing close agreement with MSU lower troposphere, 1979-2005 over most of the the USA 48 States from 30 to 50 North incl a small strip of far south Canada. – Measuring the following four bands … Continue reading Satellites vs surface, amazing agreement over the USA.
There is a tendency around to claim that satellite Lower Troposphere (LT) T trends now agree with Jones et al (land & sea) and GISS land based trends. But this is not so.Trend differences of circa 0.047 C per decade are huge when viewed against the claims by Jones et al / IPCC of only … Continue reading Satellite global temperature trends; still much less warming than Jones and GISS
This is the first “city” study I put online in 2000. There is nothing isolated about Jones using a city with such obvious UHI contamination as Atlanta, they used hundreds of cities. In the face of this methodology, the AMS journal in 1986 published not ONE comment and I am not aware anybody tried to … Continue reading How did Jones et al 1986 and Jones 1994 select Atlanta ?
On these web pages we take a critical look at climate change and particularly climate change over the last 25 years where data is good. Some of the material comes from an old website at erols.com that now no longer exists. Much of material will be new based on new developments in the last few … Continue reading A Critical Examination of Climate Change
