If the composition does change, you will often find that stations dropping out will result in climatological biases in the network due to differences in elevation and average temperatures that don’t necessarily reflect any real information on month-to-month or year-to-year variability

The problem is its the higher elevation and rural stations that are disproportionately being dropped. Adjustments for this ought to go the other way than what they do.

BTW this is NOT the only problem with the adjustment process. It has nothing to do with the problems identified in Iceland, Paraguay, and other places.
