 Considering urban heat islands, I cannot really understand why sea temperatures are not measured at the equator and air temperature at the poles, I think this would give a better idea of how the global temperature and future climate are heading. I would also like to know if the atmospheric envelope can be measured for expansion and shrinking, which might give a better idea of atmospheric concentrations.
