May global temperatures fall 0.16C

Posted on June 14, 2019 by Clive Best

The global averaged surface temperature for May 2019 was 0.66C using my spherical triangulation method merging GHCNV3 with HadSST3. This is a significant drop of 0.16C from April 2018. The baseline used is always 1961-1990. I also applied the same … Continue reading →

Changing temperature anomaly baselines

Posted on February 27, 2019 by Clive Best

I wanted to check whether the choice of baseline can affect the calculation of  global temperature anomalies from station data. Each temperature index (GISS, Berkeley, CRU) uses different normalisation periods for calculating weather station temperature anomalies. I was surprised to … Continue reading →

How does temperature depend on CO2?

Posted on February 15, 2019 by Clive Best

Robert Rohde has produced a very nice animation of global temperatures as a function of CO2 levels in the atmosphere. Of course it is designed for public relations purposes in order to show increasing CO2 causes warming.  He even uses … Continue reading →
