Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction and Research - Provides, for the UK Government, an assessment of both natural and man-made climate change. Offers accesible information on climate modeling and climate change in general, with particular emphasis on data from the Hadley Centre models.
National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) - The world's largest active archive of weather data. NCDC produces numerous climate publications and responds to data requests from all over the world.
An overview of paleoclimatological, observational and modeling evidence to identify causes and impacts of past and future climate changes. Includes a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page.
A division of the Climate Research Branch of Environment Canada's Meteorological Service of Canada. Site provides an overview of research and information on their models and results.
CSIRO's Climate Modelling and Applications Team seeks a better understanding of climate and its variations in order to assess the way in which climate is likely to change in future due to the enhanced greenhouse effect and to natural climatic variability.
An interdisciplinary research effort within the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) focussing on the variability and predictability of the slowly varying components of the climate system. It investigates the physical and dynamical processes in the climate system that occur on seasonal, interannual, decadal and centennial time-scales.
Aims to harness the power of PCs in homes and businesses to predict the climate of the 21st century. Individuals can register to take part when the experiment starts (likely sometime 2001).
Observes and models the hydrologic cycle and energy fluxes in the atmosphere, at the land surface, and in the upper oceans. GEWEX is an integrated program ultimately leading to the prediction of global and regional climate change.
Assessing and developing seasonal-to-interannual climate forecasts, while fostering the application of such forecasts to the explicit benefit of society.
Conducts research to enhance our ability to accurately predict changes in the global environment. Areas of interest include Convection, Atmospheric Water Vapor, and Cloud Formation; Oceans and Ocean-Atmosphere Coupling; Land Surface Hydrology and Hydrology-Vegetation Coupling;Biogeochemistry of Greenhouse Gases and Reflective Aerosols; and Upper Atmospheric Chemistry and Circulation.
North Atlantic Oscillation and its relevance to climate variability and predictability. Includes information on air-sea and air-land interactions, model results, and satellite data.
Research group focusing on remote sensing and computer simulation of terrestrial ecosystem processes, with active projects at local, regional, continental, and global scales.
PIRCS is an international program to evaluate strengths and weaknesses of regional climate models by comparing how well these models are able to simulate present-day climate.
Providing space weather alerts and warnings to the nation and the world for disturbances that can affect people and equipment working in space and on Earth.
Best available historical (monthly) temperature and precipitation data from the United States for analyzing long-term climate trends on a regional scale. Data for most stations extend through December, 1994, and a majority of the station records are complete for at least 80 years.
