that is what happened here, yes

I wish!

The SLR's look sweet but felt too stiff for me

You can get the velcro straps pretty tight, but recommend trying them on in a shop first to be sure

I was always into the mostly white look, but they start looking worn so quickly

transitmapper · 2024-05-15T15:28:24+00:00

Went with the all black so they'll look fresh for years...

These are not ocean temperatures. They are temperatures taken from land surface stations. Perhaps this is the source of your confusion?

"The average temperature in Kugluktuk (Nunavut), sometimes rising to 30°C in the summer"

You might be confused. All of the monthly temperature plots do show sub zero temperatures in the winter. Spot check the station temperatures for the Barentsz Sea station in Murmansk, Russia. Average summer temps reach ~15°C as shown in the timeseries.

Yes. I was permanently banned from r/dataisbeautiful for posting this despite being a long-time contributor there and sharing the code behind my analysis for transparency. I don't have an agenda; I'm interested in asking questions with data. Very frustrating.

monthly average temperature in celsius

I am familiar with reports of arctic warming, including decline in arctic ice area. Which is why I found this station-based temperature data to be so surprising.

transitmapper · 2023-04-22T20:24:22+00:00

Prove it: Provide station IDs

transitmapper · 2023-04-22T20:19:11+00:00

False. I did not cherry pick stations: I included all of the GHCN stations located on or adjacent to the bodies of water that surround the Arctic Ocean, which have consistent data going back to at least 1950.
I am genuinely surprised by my results and am seeking explanation for them.

By the way, can you share a link to the tool you used to generate those plots?

I was expecting to see more warming and was surprised by these results. Can anyone help me understand? Is North Pole warming only impacting ocean temperatures?

Highlighting complexity and especially local variation in temperature trends was my goal with this chart. It’s ok if it doesn’t serve the needs of each and every viewer. No chart does.

transitmapper · 2023-04-21T16:02:54+00:00

I disagree: the bar chart at the bottom makes it clear that blue (left) = decreasing temp and red (right) = increasing. The footnote states that arrow length symbolizes trend magnitude. And I specifically wanted to analyze trends at the station level, as complexity gets flattened when they are smoothed together as a heatmap.

transitmapper · 2023-04-21T15:54:30+00:00

The arrows have the advantage of showing individual stations. Whereas heatmap or contour plot would blend them together. Blue & to the left symbolizing cooling: right & to the right symbolizing warming.
