GloSATref is a gridded dataset of global historical surface air temperature anomalies relative to a 1961-1990 reference period from 1781-2021.
A journal paper desrcibing the GloSATref data set is currently under peer review. The data set provided on this page is a pre-release version of the GloSATref data set, made available to reviewers via the download page.
20-year average surface air temperature for the GloSATref analysis (°C relative to 1961-1990, final panel shows 21-year average).
