EUSTACE – Creating daily analyses of surface air temperature globally Climate Observations / Climate Observations - Explore / Explore / Projects & Initiatives - Climate Observations

Using surface skin temperature from satellites to estimate daily air temperature everywhere. EUSTACE (EU Surface Temperature for All Corners of Earth) will give publicly available daily estimates of surface air temperature since 1850 across the globe for the first time by combining surface and satellite data using novel statistical techniques. Why EUSTACE? Day-to-day variations in surface air temperature affect society in many ways: Health and...

International Surface Temperature Inititiative Climate Observations / Climate Observations - Explore / Explore / Projects & Initiatives - Climate Observations

To deliver climate services for the benefit of society we need to develop and deliver a suite of monitoring products from hourly to century timescales and from location specific to the global mean. Society expects openness and transparency in the process and to have a greater understanding of the certainty regarding how climate has changed and how it will continue to change. Necessary steps to...
