"... temperature data set is presented. It is available on a 5 latitude-longitude grid from 1880 as anomalies relative to 1961–1990 calendar-monthly climatological average night marine air temperature (NMAT). Adjustments are made for changes in observation height; these depend on estimates of the stabil ..."

"... Antarctica has allowed the extension of the ice record of atmospheric composition and climate to the past four glacial-interglacial cycles. The succession of changes through each climate cycle and termination was similar, and atmospheric and climate properties oscillated between stable bounds. Inte ..."

temperature and precipitation rate, moisture source conditions, wind strength and aerosol fluxes of marine, volcanic, terrestrial, cosmogenic and anthropogenic origin. They are also unique with their entrapped air inclusions in providing direct records of past changes in atmospheric trace-gas composition

Trends and variations in South Pacific islands oceans surface temperature

by C. K. Folland, M. J. Salinger, N. Jiang, N. A. Rayner - Journal of Climate Change , 2003
"... An analysis of temperature variability and trends in the South Pacific, mainly in the twentieth century, using data from 40 island stations and optimally interpolated sea surface and night marine air temperature data is presented. The last-named dataset is new and contains improved corrections for c ..."

Surface air temperature and its changes over the past 150 years

by P. D. Jones, M. New, D. E. Parker, S. Martin, I. G. Rigor - Rev. Geophys , 1999
"... Abstract. We review the surface air temperature record of the past 150 years, considering the homogene-ity of the basic data and the standard errors of estima-tion of the average hemispheric and global estimates. We present global fields of surface temperature change over the two 20-year periods of ..."

Cover Crops, Mulch Lower Night Temperatures in Citrus

by Neil V. O'connell, Richard L. Snyder
"... Winter often brings cold temperatures that can damage fruit or foliage in the San Joaquín Valley, posing an economic threat to citrus producers. Our experiments show that cover crops or mulch can lower minimum nighttime temperatures 0.9°F to 2.2°F in orchards, increasing the threat of freeze (frost) ..."

) damage. Wind machines are typically used to protect commercial acreage from frost by mixing warmer air aloft with colder air near the surface, thus maintaining warmer minimum temperatures within the orchard. In locations where wind machines are not cost effective, management of the orchard floor is even

2002: Bias corrections for historic sea surface temperatures based on marine air temperatures

by Thomas M. Smith, Richard, W. Reynolds - FIG. A1. Global spatial statistics (°C). (top) Spatial std dev from OI.v2, ERSST.v2, and ERSST.v3. (bottom) ERSST.v3 OI.v2 and ERSST.v3 ERSST.v2 biases
"... Because of changes in SST sampling methods in the 1940s and earlier, there are biases in the earlier period SSTs relative to the most recent 50 years. Published results from the Met Office have shown the need for historic bias correction and have developed several correction techniques. An independe ..."
Abstract - Cited by 19 (4 self) - Add to MetaCart
. An independent bias-correction method is developed here from an analysis using nighttime marine air temperatures and SST observations from the Com-prehensive Ocean–Atmosphere Data Set (COADS). Because this method is independent from methods proposed by the Met Office, the differences indicate uncertainties

Temperature during the day, but not during the night, controls flowering of Phalaenopsis orchids

by Matthew G. Blanchard, Erik S. Runkle , 2006
"... Phalaenopsis orchids are among the most valuable potted flowering crops commercially produced through-out the world because of their long flower life and ease of crop scheduling to meet specific market dates. During commercial production, Phalaenopsis are usu-ally grown at an air temperature>28 C ..."
