Climate Reanalyzer

Climate change refers to long-term variation in Earth's climate effected by heating imbalances from natural (e.g., solar, volcanic, and internal dynamics) and human sources (e.g., greenhouse gas emissions and land use). Following the onset of the Industrial Revolution, and particularly since the 1960s, global climate has warmed primarily as a consequence of rising greenhouse-gas concentrations in the atmosphere related to industrial activity. This page provides a selection of template maps and timeseries depicting changes in temperature, precipitation, and other aspects of climate over the past century, and how they are projected to change in the future.
