PhysOrg: Scientists often use satellites, supercomputers or high-tech arrays of instruments to show how the climate is changing.
But now researchers at the University of Reading have shown how climate change can be visible, even at just one location, with the simplest instrument of all: a thermometer.
In research published today, the scientists say it is often difficult to decipher trends from an individual temperature record, due to the inherent variability of local weather. This means that many people...
