RISEvaluation of Temperature Differences for Paired Stations of the U.S. Climate Reference Network
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Adjustments to data observed at pairs of climate stations have been recommended to remove the biases introduced by differences between the stations in time of observation, temperature instrumentation, latitude, and elevation. ...
Satellite-Based Adjustments for the Urban Heat Island Temperature Bias
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Monthly and seasonal relationships between urban?rural differences in minimum, maximum, and average temperatures measured at surface-based observation stations were compared to satellite-derived Advanced Very High Resolution ...
Updated Population Metadata for United States Historical Climatology Network Stations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The United States Historical Climatology Network (HCN) serial temperature dataset is comprised of 1221 high-quality, long-term climate observing stations. The HCN dataset is available in several versions, one of which ...
A Homogenized Historical Temperature Extreme Dataset for the United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A subset of stations from the daily U.S. Historical Climatology Network (HCN) is used as a basis for a historical database of temperature extreme occurrence in the United States. The dataset focuses on daily temperature ...

The Influence of Land Use/Land Cover on Climatological Values of the Diurnal Temperature Range
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The diurnal temperature range (DTR) at weather observation stations that make up the U.S. Historical Climatology Network was evaluated with respect to the predominant land use/land cover associated with the stations within ...
Methodology and Results of Calculating Central California Surface Temperature Trends: Evidence of Human-Induced Climate Change?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A procedure is described to construct time series of regional surface temperatures and is then applied to interior central California stations to test the hypothesis that century-scale trend differences between irrigated ...
Temperature Trends of the U.S. Historical Climatology Network Based on Satellite-Designated Land Use/Land Cover
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The 1221 weather observation stations that compose the U.S. Historical Climatology Network were designated as either urban, suburban, or rural based on data from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program Operational ...
Estimating the Urban Bias of Surface Shelter Temperatures Using Upper-Air and Satellite Data. Part II: Estimation of the Urban Bias
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A methodology is presented for estimating the urban bias of surface shelter temperatures due to the effect of the urban heat island. Multiple regression techniques were used to predict surface shelter temperatures based ...
Estimating the Urban Bias of Surface Shelter Temperatures Using Upper-Air and Satellite Data. Part I: Development of Models Predicting Surface Shelter Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multiple regression techniques were used to predict surface shelter temperatures based on the time period 1986?89 using upper-air data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts to represent the background ...
