Antarctic Land Surface Temperature (part 2)

In this episode I produce time series slides of mean annual temperature for the three main categories of base location using slightly more ‘robust’ data than offered by the raw series

In part 1 of this series I kicked-off by looking at data quality of the GHCN daily data series. What should be obvious by now is that there are not that many weather stations in Antarctica and that data collection among these is pretty patchy at the best of times.
