It can be followed but lean in close.<br /><br />In the Questions session, some guy :-) bless him asked the question I wanted to hear -- are there plans to put a corresponding instrument over the middle of the night side.<br /><br />Pratfalls ensued, lots of attempts to find a slide, lots of mumbling, and I have no expletive deleted idea whether they tried to answer that question.<br /><br />Gavin told me years ago at RC that whenever Triana was in place, we'd still need a corresponding instrument on the night side to get a simple answer to the radiation balance question.<br /><br />Still waiting, I guess. If there was anything useful in the panel's response, would somebunny please give us not just a transcript but an explication? If not reason to hope ...<br /><br />When you buy your first mirror, you fairly soon realize that you need a second mirror to see the back of your head. <br /><br />Hell, are there enough people who'd like an answer to fund a Kickstarter to get that one little instrument out there?

How can a scientist hold those beliefs, and yet be expected to carry out his research in an objective way?

There are some interesting differences from the older version 5.6, the TLT can be seen <a href="http://vortex.nsstc.uah.edu/data/msu/t2lt/" rel="nofollow">HERE</a>. <br /><br />A Spencer notes, they no longer provide daily data, only monthly averages, which prevents the sort of analysis I performed back in 2003. They present the data differently as well. Their files with reduced monthly data, <a href="http://vortex.nsstc.uah.edu/data/msu/t2lt/uahncdc_lt_5.6.txt" rel="nofollow">for the TLT v5.6</a> and <a href="http://vortex.nsstc.uah.edu/data/msu/v6.0beta/tlt/uahncdc_lt_6.0beta4.txt" rel="nofollow">for the new TLT v6.0</a> appear similar, beginning with December 1978 and ending with October 2015. <br /><br />However, they also present data smoothed by a 12 month trailing average, a process which they well know results in a shift in the date of about 6 months. But, looking at <a href="http://vortex.nsstc.uah.edu/data/msu/t2lt/tltglhmam_5.6.txt" rel="nofollow">the v5.6 file</a> and <a href="http://vortex.nsstc.uah.edu/data/msu/v6.0beta/tlt/tltglhmam_6.0beta4.txt" rel="nofollow">the v6.0 file</a>, one sees an obvious difference. The v5.6 data begins with Dec 1978 and ends with October 2015, just as in the other, larger file and the first data point in the smoothed column of data is October 1979 and the last value is for October 2015, as one would expect from a mathematically correct application of a moving average. But, the version 6.0 smoothed data file shows a beginning date of January 1978 and ends with December 2015. The first 5 columns have been padded with values of -999.0, which indicates data not available. The first date in the smoothed data is December 1979 and the last is December 2015! It appears that they started calculating the 12 month average with those 11 months of "data not available", thus the first values for the smoothed data is the same as the data before the calculation. Not only that, but the last 2 months, November and December 2015, are probably just tacked on at the end manually, as they differ only slightly from the data for October. The same trick is also used for the v6.0 TMT and TLS smoothed data files.<br /><br />I expect that we will see this manipulated data used during Christy's presentation next Tuesday. I think this is another example of S&C's intentional distortion, bordering on FRAUD, the worst offense in the scientific world...E.

The new TLT employs a very different approach than the previous version 5x and their description begins with a discussion of their new correction procedure for diurnal drift of the various satellites. They show the usual graphics of the channel weightings, but don't say how they are computed, so my guess is that those graphics are based on the use the U.S. Standard Atmosphere model as input to their calculations.<br /><br />There's quite a bit of interesting information there. For example, they write:<br /><br /><i>Note that trends are noisy over Greenland, Antarctica, and the Tibetan Plateau, likely due to greater sensitivity of the satellite measurements to surface emission and thus to emissivity changes over high altitude terrain; trends in these high-altitude areas are much less reliable than in other areas.</i> <br /><br />So why use that data? And,<br /><br /><i>...the lower in altitude the weighting function senses, the greater the brightness temperature difference between land and ocean, mostly because land microwave emissivity is approximately 0.90-0.95, while the ocean emissivity is only about 0.50. As a result, if the AMSU channel 5 view angle chosen to match MSU channel 2 is too low in altitude, the net effect after satellite intercalibration will be a spurious warming of land areas and spurious cooling of ocean areas (at least when intercalibration is performed with land and ocean data combined). We were careful to match the MSU and AMSU weighting function altitudes based upon radiative transfer theory...</i><br /><br />What about differences in surface emissivity between open ocean and sea-ice? Wouldn't the now obvious decline in Arctic sea-ice impact the data and thus the trend? And,<br /><br /><i>...instead of the past method of calculating LT as a weighted difference between different view angles of MSU2 (or AMSU5), we are now calculating it as a weighted difference between MSU channels 2, 3, and 4 (or AMSU channels 5, 7, and 9) at a constant Earth incidence angle. This has the very important advantage that all satellite data necessary for the LT retrieval come from the same location.</i><br /><br />The weighting presumably relies on the models for each channel's emissions profile, thus depends on the model of the lapse rate, etc.<br /><br />Another change is that they now assign the data from each swath to 2 different ground footprints, one in the middle of each half of the swath, instead of registering the entire swath combination to the footprint at nadir, as was done with the MSU data for Version 5x. This should be an improvement and is similar to what I proposed some years back and which RSS uses for their TLT grid registration.E.
