Climatologies from satellite measurements: the impact of orbital sampling on the standard error of the mean
Climatologies of atmospheric observations are often produced by binning measurements according to latitude and calculating zonal means. The uncertainty in these climatological means is characterised by the standard error of the mean (SEM). However, the usual estimator of the SEM, i.e., the sampl...
