Question

Describe the possible caveats and biases that are present within the instrumental temperature record

Part III: Questions, Responses, Critical Thinking I. Summarize the descriptive statistics of the dataset (from the 1* sheet, not the one you added for just the two Ohio stations) by completing the table below. You should use the Sort function in Excel to determine these answers (that's one possible way. More advanced users of Excel could think of other ways). I included a sample just so you can see how it should be typed out.
