Impact of ACRE Assessed
Lisbon Workshop Report
6th ACRE Workshop:Applications of Reanalysis Productsbrought together the ACRE community and its partners to discuss the results of activities in the areas of data, reanalyses, and user needs. The workshop examined current and potential uptake of the ACRE-facilitated 20th Century Reanalysis Project output and products by the climate science community. Also showcased were ACRE’s ongoing developments in the areas of citizen science, massive-scale data handling and web-based capabilities, state-of-the-art high-resolution visualisations of data, metadata, data images and reanalyses products.
ACRE data confirms global land warming
Barometric pressure confirms the
temperature record
A unique and innovative new observational study that did not use temperature recordings from land stations has confirmed global land warming, according to a scientist at NOAA’s Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES). The finding refutes concerns that artifacts in land-based observing systems have led to an artificial global land warming trend. “This shows that global warming over land is real,” said CIRES scientist lead author Gilbert Compo who works at NOAA’s Earth System Research Laboratory. “It is not an artifact of the observing system. It is happening.”
