As the creator is inactive I say that if conflict between datasets arise NASA will be leading.
Just preventing a possible discussion in a year.
El Nina/Nino has significantly more impact on the next year's temperatures than current year. Look at the big El Niño/Nina years and biggest temp anomalies are from Jan to March/April.
I think as an effect of reducing sulfur pollution in shipping the earth is still absorbing much more radiation than it’s emitting (on top of the effect from increasing GHG). And this effect will continue to warm planet significantly for years (though ofc el Nina and declining solar cycle will have cooling effects).
@will58c Anyone have views about Leon Simons ? I tend to think he's onto something with the reduction in sulfate shipping emissions causing significant warming.
However, he seems to be in the minority.
@nic_kup That is satellite based. Seems like it should have good coverage but the satellite record has run into problems with calibrating for satellite drift and between satellites. It is good for up to date daily reading but here we need comparison to 2016.
Therefore I prefer the established NASA or NOAA records. Hadley centre record also good but has been slower with data. Berkeley Earth is another possibility. Anyway we have been told it is NASA over a month ago so I don't think that should change.
@WieDan Any good market about the probability of La Nina being active in each month?
@bohaska I created a couple (for longer periods than 1 month):
