Title:
Five-Year Average Global Temperature Anomalies from 1880 to 2006
Description:
Print resolution still of global temperature anomalies averaged from 1880 to 1884.
Abstract:
Because of a rapid warming trend over the past 30 years, the Earth is now reaching and passing through the warmest levels seen in the last 12,000 years. This color-coded map shows a progression of changing global surface temperatures from 1880 to 2006, the warmest ranked year on record.
