The Pause Update: July 2016
The complete UAH v6.0 data for July were released on Friday.
The graph shows the furthest back one can go to show a zero or negative trend (less than 0.1 +/-0.1C per 100 years) in lower tropospheric temperatures. I calculate 12 month running means to remove the small possibility of seasonal autocorrelation in the monthly anomalies. Note: The satellite record commences in December 1978- now 37 years and 8 months long- 452 months. 12 month running means commence in November 1979. The y-axes in the graphs below are at December 1978, so the vertical gridlines denote Decembers. The final plotted points are July 2016.
Globe:
The Pause is 3 months shorter.

The Pause still refuses to go away, despite all expectations.
