The UAH satellite temperature dataset, developed at the University of Alabama in Huntsville, infers the temperature of various atmospheric layers from satellite measurements of the oxygen radiance in the microwave band, using Microwave Sounding Unit temperature measurements.
Since the earliest release of results in the 1990s, a number of adjustments to the algorithm computing the UAH TLT dataset have been made. [44] [8] A table of the corrections can be found in the UAH satellite temperature dataset article.
As a result, different groups that have analyzed the satellite data have produced differing temperature datasets. The satellite time series is not homogeneous. It is constructed from a series of satellites with similar but not identical sensors. The sensors also deteriorate over time, and corrections are necessary for orbital drift and decay.
John Raymond Christy is a climate scientist at the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) whose chief interests are satellite remote sensing of global climate and global climate change. He is best known, jointly with Roy Spencer, for the first successful development of a satellite temperature record. [1]
Roy Warren Spencer (born December 20, 1955) [1] is an American meteorologist and climate scientist. [2] He is a principal research scientist at the University of Alabama in Huntsville, and the U.S. Science Team leader for the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR-E) on NASA's Aqua satellite.
RSS is a widely cited source of data on the satellite temperature record.Their data is one source of evidence for global warming.Research by Carl Mears, Matthias Schabel, and Wentz, all of RSS, highlighted errors in the early satellite temperature records compiled by John Christy and Roy Spencer at UAH, [1] [2] which had previously showed no significant temperature trend, bringing the derived ...
