I will note, that as a former
Metrologist, the idea of any accurate measurement of surface temperatures using the equipment given is simply absurd.
The rule in Metrology is that, if you are trying to get results measured in 1/10 increments (i.e. 98.6 vs 98.7) your equipment MUST measure in 1/100 (98.60 vs 98.70).
The reasons are many. Rounding errors and the physical accuracy of the instrument are among the most obvious.
Would it surprise you to learn that the "scientific instrument" that is used to base the entire Global Warming trend is about as accurate as the thermometer you see at the gas station?
And this is what we are basing the decisions on changing the entire economy?
One of these days I am going to take the time to deconstruct the entire issue of the instrumentation used for this "Theory".
