Early-nineteenth century southern African precipitation reconstructions from ships’ logbooks
Atmospheric circulation in the oceans surrounding southern Africa plays an important role in determining its precipitation. This study uses wind information recorded in ships’ logbooks in order to statistically reconstruct summer and winter season precipitation at four southern African weather stations from 1796-1854. The reconstruction was obtained by first relating gridded 8° x 8° NCEP-DOE re...
متن کاملAn Overview of the Global Historical Climatology Network Temperature Database
The Global Historical Climatology Network version 2 temperature database was released in May 1997. This centuryscale dataset consists of monthly surface observations from ~7000 stations from around the world. This archive breaks considerable new ground in the field of global climate databases. The enhancements include 1) data for additional stations to improve regional-scale analyses, particula...

Historical Climatology in Europe – the State of the Art
This paper discusses the state of European research in historical climatology. This field of science and an overview of its development are described in detail. Special attention is given to the documentary evidence used for data sources, including its drawbacks and advantages. Further, methods and significant results of historical-climatological research, mainly achieved since 1990, are presen...
متن کاملAn evaluation of the time of observation bias adjustment in the U.S. Historical Climatology Network
[1] The U.S. Historical Climatology Network (HCN) database contains statistical adjustments that address historical changes in observation time at each observing station in the network. A paper in 2002 suggested that these adjustments cause HCN temperature trends to be ''spuriously'' warm relative to other datasets for the United States. To test this hypothesis, this paper evaluates the reliabi...
