I recently acquired subsets of two climate datasets containing data of monthly mean air temperature for my study area, one based on interpolation of surrounding meteorological stations and the other based on climate models. On both of them, despite wich kind of fit i try to do, the coefficient of determination values are below 0.3. Comparing this data with climate data from a relatively close airport, the values show some linear trend, but coefficient of determination is 0.65 and the slope has an opposite sign. What maybe the reason of this apparent local absence of trends? I thank you in advance for your time and consideration on this matter. (On the graphs: y-axis degree celsius, x-axis years).
