A Study of Six Operational Sea Surface Temperature Analyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study results from recommendations made by a 1984 WMO Expert Committee on Ocean-Atmosphere Interaction Relevant to Long-Range Forecasting. The committee suggested that comparisons be carried out between monthly sea ...
Assessing Bias and Uncertainty in the HadAT-Adjusted Radiosonde Climate Record
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Uncertainties in observed records of atmospheric temperature aloft remain poorly quantified. This has resulted in considerable controversy regarding signals of climate change over recent decades from temperature records ...
Critically Reassessing Tropospheric Temperature Trends from Radiosondes Using Realistic Validation Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Biases and uncertainties in large-scale radiosonde temperature trends in the troposphere are critically reassessed. Realistic validation experiments are performed on an automatic radiosonde homogenization system by applying ...
Improved Analyses of Changes and Uncertainties in Sea Surface Temperature Measured In Situ since the Mid-Nineteenth Century: The HadSST2 Dataset
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new flexible gridded dataset of sea surface temperature (SST) since 1850 is presented and its uncertainties are quantified. This analysis [the Second Hadley Centre Sea Surface Temperature dataset (HadSST2)] is based on ...
Daily Mean Sea Level Pressure Reconstructions for the European–North Atlantic Region for the Period 1850–2003
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The development of a daily historical European?North Atlantic mean sea level pressure dataset (EMSLP) for 1850?2003 on a 5° latitude by longitude grid is described. This product was produced using 86 continental and island ...
