Climate Bulletins

Through our monthly maps, we present the current condition of the climate using key climate change indicators. We also provide analysis of the maps and guidance on how they are produced.

Climate Change Knowledge Portal - World Bank

The Climate Change Knowledge Portal provides global data on historical and future climate vulnerabilities and impact

Climate Data Store

Dive into this wealth of information about the Earth's past, present and future climate It is freely available and functions as a one-stop shop to explore climate data.

Copernicus Climate Change Service

The Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) supports society by providing authoritative information about the past, present and future climate in Europe and the rest of the World. The C3S mission is to support adaptation and mitigation policies of the European Union by providing consistent and authoritative information about climate change. We offer free and open access to climate data and tools based on the best available science. We listen to our users and endeavour to help them meet their goals in dealing with the impacts of climate change. C3S users include scientists, consultants, planners and policy makers, the media and the public.

Extreme Ice Survey

Extreme Ice Survey (EIS) is an innovative, long-term photography program that integrates art and science to give a “visual voice” to the planet’s changing ecosystems. We believe that the creative integration of art and science can shape public perception and inspire action more effectively than either art or science can do alone.

Historical Climatology

Climate Reconstruction and Projection Tools. This site explains how cutting-edge scholarship about past climate change can shed new light on issues relevant to present and future warming. Have past climate changes caused some societies to collapse, while others succeeded? Did past societies perceive climate changes, and to what effect? Is climate change responsible for present-day conflict? Can we trust computer simulations of future climate change, and why? This site explores all of these questions, and many more.

NASA Earth Observations

Our mission is to help you picture climate and environmental changes as they occur on our home planet. Here you can browse and download imagery of satellite data from NASA's constellation of Earth Observing System satellites. Over 50 different global datasets are represented with daily, weekly, and monthly snapshots, and images are available in a variety of formats including JPEG, PNG, Google Earth, and GeoTIFF.

NCAR UCAR | Climate Data Guide

Search and access 201 data sets covering the Atmosphere, Ocean, Land and more. Explore climate indices, reanalyses and satellite data and understand their application to climate model metrics. This is the only data portal that combines data discovery, metadata, figures and world-class expertise on the strengths, limitations and applications of climate data. The NOAA Optimal Interpolation SST analysis provides global, spatially complete SSTs on a weekly and monthly basis for 1982-present.

NOAA Climate.gov

NOAA Climate.gov provides science and information for a climate-smart nation. Americans’ health, security, and economic well-being are closely linked to climate and weather. People want and need information to help them make decisions on how to manage climate-related risks and opportunities they face.

NOAA: National Center for Environmental Education

NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) is responsible for preserving, monitoring, assessing, and providing public access to the Nation's treasure of climate and historical weather data and information.

US State Climate Summaries

These State Climate Summaries were released in 2017 to meet a demand for state-level information in the wake of the Third U.S. National Climate Assessment. A rolling update of the full set of summaries is currently underway in 2019. The summaries cover assessment topics directly related to NOAA’s mission, specifically historical climate variations and trends, future climate model projections of climate conditions during the 21st century, and past and future conditions of sea level and coastal flooding. Additional background information and links are given below.

Yale Climate Opinion Maps 2018

These maps show how Americans’ climate change beliefs, risk perceptions, and policy support vary at the state, congressional district, metro area, and county levels.
