The trend may be fitted to data not shown.<br /><br />The Temperature Diff vs Time graph starts in 1947 -- only about 60 years of data rather than 115 years.<br /><br />This may illustrate the issue shown on many temperature plots -- temperatures oscillate on decades-long cycles. Depending on the time selected for the start, a trend may seem to be be up, down, or flat.Kinuachdrachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13275320683766290581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5251183560375528307.post-44258173442611501022011-01-16T13:40:07.962-06:002011-01-16T13:40:07.962-06:00I guess because that is what the numbers say.

The difference is really insignificant with averaging over this many stations, and the data still shows virtually the same inclination (it changes from 0.46 to 0.48 degrees per century). It is a very small degree of warming, because of the drop in temperatures in the middle that you note, but the temperatures, on average, 115 years ago were about half a degree less - difficult to see on this scale.Heading Outhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01790783659594652657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5251183560375528307.post-5037693515003859972011-01-16T09:43:32.139-06:002011-01-16T09:43:32.139-06:00HO -- Something odd.

Yet the linear trend fitted to it has a positive slope. Why?<br /><br />This time (unlike the data from a number of other states), temperature decline with elevation seems to approximate the adiabatic lapse rate. Since New Mexico temperatures obey the laws of physics, why don't temperatures in other states?Kinuachdrachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13275320683766290581noreply@blogger.com
