Examination of ‘global atmospheric temperature monitoring with satellite microwave measurements’: 2. Analysis of satellite data
Using Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) channel 2 (Ch. 2, 53.74 GHz) data, Spencer and Christy (1992a) determined that the earth exhibits no temperature trend in the period 1979–90, while other authors find a temp...
