Falling satellites, rising temperatures?
Author(s) : GAFFEN D. J.
Type of article: Article
Summary
Satellite-based estimates of trends in atmospheric temperature have disagreed with estimates derived from other measurements. By taking into account declines in the orbital height of satellites, re-examination of those satellite data yields results that are in better accord with independent evidence of global warming.
