How Reliable Is The Temperature Record Recorded By The USHCN ?


There are clearly some glaring problems with the data, how the data is taken and how the data is massaged. Go to WhatsUpWithThat for more information and to surfacestations.org for how the volunteer survey is progressing.

Why exactly are volunteers having to do the survey and quantify the quality of the USHCN stations? The USHCN plays a major role in determining the historical temperature record for land surface temperatures. Europe is the other area which contributes the second largest data set.
