Response to Gleisner et al (2015): Recent global warming hiatus dominated by low latitude temperature trends in surface and troposphere data
A new paper has been published in Geophysical Research Letters which investigates the geographical fingerprint of the recent slowdown in global warming. Gleisner et al. of the Danish Meteorological institute perform an analysis of a number of temperature datasets to investigate the latitudinal distr...
