1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Essential Climate Variables, such as near-surface (T2m) and land surface temperatures (LST), are typically reported in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) for global consistency. However, their diurnal variability leads to temperature trends that differ by the local hour, a factor not analyzed on the global nor regional scale. Using ECMWF ERA5-Land reanalysis data (1981-2022), we assess temperature trends by local hour and month. Our results show that the trends can change significantly during the day. LST and T2m warming or cooling trends peak in the afternoon, while showing large spatial variability across both hemispheres. Using MODIS observations, we show how the nominal Equator crossing times of TERRA and AQUA influence LST trends. These findings highlight the necessity of accounting for local time in climate assessments to improve adaptation strategies.
