Geotimes October 2005 Sara Pratt	Revisiting the Satellite Record Global warming skeptics have long pointed to satellite data showing cooling in the tropical atmosphere as evidence that either climate models or measurements of surface warming, or both, are unreliable. New research suggests, however, that it is the analysis of the satellite data that was wrong.
Geotimes July 2004 Sara Pratt	Recalculating the Warming Trend Over the past 15 years climate researchers have observed that while temperatures at the earth's surface have been quickly on the rise, the troposphere has been warming more slowly than expected.

A new study adds to evidence that urbanization and other land-use changes may play a comparable role in climate change.
