Abstract

The aim of this paper is know the evolution of air temperature in the North Atlantic. For it, ten temporary series are selected and they are analyzed during the instrumental period, that in almost all the meteorological stations it goes from 1865 to 2004. It is wanted as far as possible to avoid the urban effect in the temperatures, reason why installed meteorological stations in small islands and/or in high latitudes are chosen. In addition, satellite images are analyzed to know the location the meteorological stations and the influence of environment. The disparity of tendencies of the temporal series and the low correlation between the analyzed data prevent to support the thesis of the climatic change. However, some series show temperature increases in the last decades, although partial increases are repeated frequently in the temporal series of more of a century.
