Summary
Abstract: The Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO) Climate Data Library
contains a wide variety of primarily oceanographic and atmospheric
data sets. All of the data is available online and most can be
viewed through the Data Library's Data Viewer. The Data Viewer allows the
user to choose the data desired, make plots, tables, files, subset
files, etc. The data library is ... View entire text
