As I told you in another thread, removing stations near heat sources would increase rather than decrease the global average because the trends are based on anomalies, not absolute temperature readings. Anomalies are measured against the 20 to 30 year average of that station's temperature and if the station is near a heat source it raises the average temperature the anomaly is measured against thus reducing the anomaly!!!I havent had time to read the BEST papers but the UHI results seem very odd. I wonder how long the peer review will last and how many changes will be made. interesting times.
