You are suggesting using the GISS NASA Land/Ocean chart to compare to. Do you have any idea how cold it would have to get to change the earth’s land/ocean temperature by .8 C (the amount to get the temp. back to 1880’s) in one year? The land/ocean chart was used to get rid of most of the yearly land temperature variation, it's sort of like double averaging the data.

I would suggest using the Land data only and calculate significance limits to compare to.
