Climate Visualizations
The following collections were developed as a part of the Teaching Geoscience with Visualizations workshop and website. Each link presents quality visualizations on a particular topic in the geosciences. You can browse through the whole collection of visualization pages on the Teaching with Visualizations website.

The Climate System
Weather and Climate - this collection focuses on air masses and fronts, clouds and precipitation, storms, and seasons
Atmosphere - this collection focuses on the composition and structure of the atmosphere and on greenhouse gases
Ocean-Atmosphere Circulation - this collection includes visualizations about sea surface temperature (SST), currents, El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), and Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO)
Energy Balance - this collection features visualizations about long and short wave radiation and albedo

Climate Change: Past, Present, and Future
Paleoclimate - this collection features visualizations of Earth's climate through geologic time
Process of Anthropogenic Climate Change - this collection includes visualizations about how the greenhouse effect works, emissions data, and recent climate curves (i.e. the hockey stick)
Impacts of Climate Change - this collection includes projections of future changes and evidence of current changes in climate
