Assessing potential of sparse‐input reanalyses for centennial‐scale land surface air temperature homogenisation

AbstractObservations from the historical meteorological observing network contain many artefacts of non‐climatic origin which must be accounted for prior to using these data in climate applications. State‐of‐the‐art homogenisation approaches use various flavours of pairwise comparison between a target station and candidate neighbour station series. Such approaches require an adequate number...
