Basics of Many Climate Concepts
Robert Grumbine examines them in many of his recent posts. This might be good for engineers and physicists from other fields trying to get the basics.
Clear Climate Code
A project you can partake here. Rewriting some NASA GISS temperature record code in Python at first. I’d go further and say things like these should not be volunteer efforts… government codes for something important like this should be open … Continue reading
