Abstract
This short note presents seasonal time series for the 1888–1946 period of Adelaide temperature records comparing Glaisher stand and Stevenson screen data, as examined by Nicholls et al.. Site changes and a station move may account for discontinuities in the seasonal trends, which make the data unrepresentative as a test of comparative thermometer exposure. Research directions are suggested that may cast light on these problems in the data. © 1997 by the Royal Meteorological Society.
