NCS Portal Dashboardhttp://www.climate.gov • Just as a dashboard gives instant information on the status of a vehicle’s various systems, NOAA’s Global Climate Dashboard presents an overview of the current state of Earth’s climate system in historical context. • The Dashboard is designed for people seeking a synoptic view about what we know about climate variability and change, particularly policy leaders. • Adjustable sliders up top allow users to focus on the time period of interest. • Hover cursor over graphs to produce brief “tool-tip” snippets stating what each parameter is showing. • Click on graphs to jump to more detailed landing pages with more details produced in a popular style. • Future plans include: • Adding future climate scenarios out to 2100. • Making graphs more interactive, using MultiGraph • Rewriting Dashboard as an appliance that can be syndicated / hosted by others.
