This time-series graph plots global temperatures from 1850-2023 versus the 20th century average. 2023 stands out as the hottest year in that 173-year record. The temperature anomaly label for 2016 has been added to the graph to show how much hotter...
Past four years hottest on record, data shows It all goes to show how temperature data can be misrepresented if you don’t show the temperature data itself.Fig 1 is the HadCRUT4 monthly global temperature from the UK Met Office. As you can see a graph tells a very different story. ...
Topics discussed are alarmism created by the hockey stick styled graph of rise in temperature created by climatologist Michael Mann; false reports of surface temperatures collected by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NAOO) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA); revealing...
Above graph illustrates the change in global surface temperature relative to 1951-1980 average temperatures, with the year 2020 statistically along with 2016 for hottest on record(Source: NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies). Climate change: ...
This graph plots daily global average surface air temperatures from the 1940s through 2023, so far. On November 17, the temperature anomaly reached +2.07°C above pre-industrial, while on November 18, it was +2.08°C. Comparison with 1850-1900 repr...
The graph above represents the latest update; updates are usually made within the first week of every month. Contrary to some reports, the satellite measurements are not calibrated in any way with the global surface-based thermometer records of temperature. They instead use their own on-board pre...
Average surface air temperatures are calculated at a given station location based on the following procedure: record the minimum and maximum temperature for each day; calculate the average of the minimum and maximum. Calculate the averages for the month from the daily data. Calculate the annual av...
