Summary: | The global surface temperature change (known in the literature as anomaly) reflects the temperature over the Earth's land and sea surface relative to the average temperature of period 1850-1900. Data obtained from the HadCRUT.4.6.0.0 dataset. | |
Method: | The HadCRUT4 near surface temperature data set is produced by blending data from the CRUTEM4 surface air temperature dataset and the HadSST3 sea-surface temperature dataset. The data comes from land surface stations across the globe. The uncertainty represents the 95% confidence interval of the combined effects of all the uncertainties described in the HadCRUT4 error model (measurement and sampling, bias and coverage uncertainties). | |
