I usually (but not always) include links to data on which my posts are based. It occured to me that it would be useful to collect data links in a single location. Therefore this page is a holding area for links to climate data.
It’s just starting, so at the moment it’s not nearly complete, and some of the links below are not yet active! Give it time…
Surface temperatures:
NASA GISS (NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies)
NCDC (National Climate Data Center)
HadCRU (Hadley Centre/Climate Research Unit)
ECA (European Climate Assessment & Dataset Network)
Satellite-based atmospheric temperature estimates:
RSS (Remote Sensing Systems)
UAH (University of Alabama at Huntsville)
UW-RSS (University of Washington/RSS)
UW-UAH (University of Washington/UAH)
UMD (University of Maryland)
Sea Ice
HadISST (Hadley Centre/Climate Research Unit)
(National Snow and Ice Data Center)
Total Solar Irradiance (TSI)
PMOD composite of satellite data
ACRIM composite of satellite data
IRMB composite of satellite data
Lean (2004) (reconstruction by proxy)
Greenhouse Gases
Mauna Loa Atmospheric Observatory CO2
WDC for Greenhouse Gases
Climate Sensitivity
Data Archiving Pages:

I would include:
Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (Oak Ridge National Laboratory)
http://cdiac.ornl.gov
This is where I have found the ice core data for the past millenia, e.g.,
Law Dome Ice Cores
Historical CO2 Records from the Law Dome DE08, DE08-2, and DSS Ice Cores
