re: NOAA Caught Adjusting Big Freeze out of Existence

The NOAA adjustments have been know for quite awhile and have been thoroughly explained.

No they haven't

For example: if NOAA adjusted older temp data down, as that area became an 'urban heat island', then why arent newer stations data adjusted up when 'estimating' rural areas that didn't historically have a measuring station?

Also, why dont they adjust ship engine room intake data downward, rather than buoy data up, when we know ships engines warm that water

NOAA argues that the transition to buoys introduced a spurious cooling bias into the record. ERIs tend to warm the water a bit before measuring it (ship engine rooms being rather hot), whereas buoys do not.

They openly admit when something doesn't go their way, they trash the data
