This is a collection of visualisation resources that I have found useful to communicate different aspects of weather and climate science. Please suggest additions!

Observations
– Climate spirals (Ed Hawkins) (& translated into several languages or alternative versions)
– Global temperatures with seasonal cycle (NASA)
– 160 years of sea level pressure observations (Philip Brohan)
– Weather of 2015 (EUMETSAT)
– Global temperature small multiple maps (Ed Hawkins)
– Keeling curve of carbon dioxide (Scripps) (& longer context from NOAA)
– Interactive weather in real time (Earth NullSchool)
– Arctic: ice age animation (NASA), sea ice animations (Zack Labe)
– Global sea level (Emma Reed)

Reconstructions
– Hurricanes in the Caribbean (Washington Post)
– Paleo-temperature reconstruction (xkcd)
– Weather in a reanalysis: 2013, 1936 (Philip Brohan)
– Aerosols in a reanalysis (NASA)

Simulations

Attribution
– What’s warming the world? (Bloomberg & NASA)

Amusing
