Sometimes there are surprises in reconstructing papers. I can’t claim to have spent the time like this before but as I do now I’m learning. Our friend the Laymen asked for a plot of the new data as compared to surface station data. It’s rather impressive. The data in this post is from Steig O9 raw data compared with the closest gridcell to the surface station..
Comiso is an Antarctic Jedi. I don’t know how he did it but the data he produced is of fantastic quality. Check out these plots. There’s no facetiousness here, this is just plain impressive. I have to know how he did it.
Ok, I’m tired. How did he turn NSIDC data which looks like this
Into this
It’s really quite good.
