It's "statistically insignificant" warming. 2015 was not hotter than 2014. The anomalous values are higher.
The "Climate Clown" alarmists (Trevor) make this mistake all of the time. 2014 was not hotter than 2013. The anomalous values are higher.
Using a conglomeration of averages (daily) of averages (monthly) of averages (yearly) doesn't give an accurate accounting of temperature. These are spacial measurements designed to get an idea of what the "best guess" is. Anyone who says, "I know what the specific temperature of Earth is by looking at a temperature graph" is a liar.
" ... The Earth's average surface absolute temperature for the 1961-1990 period has been derived by spatial interpolation of average observed near-surface air temperatures from over the land, oceans and sea ice regions, with a best estimate of 14 °C (57.2 °F). The estimate is uncertain, but probably lies within 0.5 °C of the true value. ... " ***THE ESTIMATE IS UNCERTAIN, BUT PROBABLY LIES WITHIN 0.5C (+0.25C or -0.25C) OF THE TRUE VALUE.
*** ***DERIVED BY SPACIAL INTERPOLATION OF AVERAGE TEMPERATURES*** This is scientific jargon that simply says they don't know and can't measure the Earth's average temperature. The specific plot points "jump around" like a heart monitor for a reason - Temperature movement around the whole planet is very rapid and can be very extreme in some cases. It has "ALWAYS" done this no matter what the "Climate Clowns" are telling people.
Climate science has to use "anomalies" because it is so hard to measure the Earth's temperature. It's called "The Climate" and it is EXTREMELY variable especially in the middle latitudes. Climate science abusers (alarmists) have now hi-jacked the phrase "climate change" and now call it "Climate Change" (how stupid is that?) instead of identifying it as "Anthropogenic Climate Change".
Bottom Line : It is not known that 2015 will be hotter than 2014. The anomalous values may be higher, but only by 1/100th (maybe 0.01C) of a degree. The same is with the relationship between 2013 and 2014.
The temperature difference in the anomalies in the last 18 years is within a few 100ths of a degree (CO2 levels have risen 10% in the last 18 years and barely any (if at all) warming). Well within the margin of error and statistically insignificant. "ACTUAL TEMPERATURE" of Earth's atmosphere is near impossible to measure.
We still can't measure it at this point in time. It's still based on anomalous values.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
