Original Note:
Claims of climate data manipulation by sensor placement near runways are misleading. Sensors, distributed over land and sea, are often shaded, ventilated. Anomalies are calculated against long-term averages, not influenced significantly by Urban Heat Island effect. https://skepticalscience.com/urban-heat-island-effect.htm https://www.carbonbrief.org/explainer-how-do-scientists-measure-global-temperature
