What is it about?
ERSST v4 is improved over v3b in bias corrections to ship SST observation and long-term trend
Featured Image
Why is it important?
The bias correction in ERSST v3b is improved particularly after 1940s, the global SST warming trend becomes significant, and there is no warming hiatus.
Perspectives
The contribution of new ship SST bias correction to the quantification of global SST trend is very significant.
