Temperature is probably the most influential of all climatic
variables. Our only direct, quantitative knowledge of global
temperatures comes from instruments operated over the last 150 or
so years. Yet as crucial and as central as these data are to our
understanding of the climate, they are largely taken for granted,
even by many of those using them. Measuring Global Temperatures
will fill this gap by explaining how global temperatures are
measured, how the data are analyzed, what the potential errors are,
and what needs to be done to improve temperature measurement in the
future. The book is of great interest to all meteorologists,
climatologists, and hydrologists, and especially those concerned
with climate change and global warming. It is written in accessible
language with little mathematics, and so will appeal to students
and amateur meteorologists with a strong interest in weather and
climate.
