Probably a terrible idea
More bad ideas for sticking datasets together like wiggly worms. Continue reading

For skies of couple-colour as a brinded cow
Some time ago, I posted on a global temperature dataset by Kadow et al. – Artificial intelligence reconstructs missing climate information – which was created using neural nets to infill data gaps. It was used in the last IPCC report alongside the more traditional datasets: HadCRUT5, Berkeley Earth, and NOAAGlobalTemp. The other three datasets are… Continue reading

People are afraid to merge
With the publication of Sippel et al. I’m back to considering structural uncertainty in global mean temperatures. I came up with a scheme for merging global temperature series that’s intended to balance estimates according to how closely related their methods are. Datasets that are variations on a single theme – such as the group of… Continue reading

It just ain’t natural
A new paper on SST biases is in NatureorScience. It’s titled “Early-twentieth-century cold bias in ocean surface temperature observations“. It’s a little strange, given the prominence of natureorncience that the main result – that there is a cold bias in the early 20th century global temperatures originating in the ocean data – has been published… Continue reading
