NCEI Climate at a Glance (CAG) Temperature Anomalies
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)
The global-scale Climate at a Glance (CAG) temperature anomaly data is derived from the Global Historical Climatology Network-Monthly (GHCN-M) data set and International Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere Data Set (ICOADS). This tool provides an analysis of monthly and annual temperatures for the globe and is intended for the study of climate variability and change.
