Since then the satellite record has been revised, and shows warming.

As of mid-2007, the rise is between 0.14 and 0.184 degree Celsius per decade, depending on which satellite record is used.

Since the start of the satellite record, total Antarctic sea ice has increased by about 1 percent per decade.

The six lowest seasonal minimum ice extents in the satellite record have all occurred between 2007 and 2012.

On this the three global surface temperature records and the two satellite records are in agreement.

The satellite records have the advantage of greater spatial coverage, whereas the radiosonde record is longer.

In the late 1990s the disagreement between the surface temperature record and the satellite records was a subject of research and debate.

Amazingly broadcast on one of the warmest months in the satellite record.

From the late 1970s (when the major long-term satellite record began) until now, the Arctic sea ice cover has very definitely decreased.

In the Antarctic, data prior to the satellite record are even more sparse.
