Trends in annual temperature across Europe between 1960 and 2015

Topics: Climate change adaptation ,

How to read the map: Grid boxes outlined in solid black contain at least three stations and so are likely to be more representative of the grid box. High confidence in the long-term trend is shown by a black dot. (In the map above, this is the case for all grid boxes.)

HadEX2 - global climate extremes dataset

HadEX2 - global climate extremes dataset HadEX2 is a global land-based climate extremes dataset produced through the coordination of the joint WMO CCl/CLIVAR/JCOMM Expert Team on Climate Change Detection and Indices (ETCCDI) . It comprises of 27 indices of temperature and precipitation on a 2.5° x 3.75° grid from 1901 to 2010. The indices represent seasonal and/or annual values derived from daily station data. Data are calculated using RClimDex/FClimDex software; developed and maintained on behalf of the ETCCDI by the Climate Research Branch of the Meteorological Service of Canada.

E-OBS gridded dataset

E-OBS gridded dataset E-OBS gridded version of the ECA dataset (netCDF) with daily temperature, precipitation and pressure fields The ECA dataset contains series of daily observations at meteorological stations throughout Europe and the Mediterranean.

Used in indicators

Will the increase in global average temperature stay below the EU policy target of not more than 2°C above pre-industrial levels, and will the rate of increase in global average temperature stay below the proposed target of not more than 0.2°C per decade?

Will the increase in global average temperature stay below the EU policy target of not more than 2°C above pre-industrial levels, and will the rate of increase in global average temperature stay below the proposed target of not more than 0.2°C per decade?
