Climate Data Records (CDRs) - developed by applying modern data analysis methods to historical global satellite data - are robust, sustainable, and scientifically sound climate records that provide trustworthy information on how, where, and to what extent the land, oceans, atmosphere and ice sheets are changing. These datasets are thoroughly vetted time series measurements with the longevity, consistency, and continuity to assess and measure climate variability and change. CDRs can be used to manage natural resources and agriculture, measure environmental impacts on human health and community preparedness, and inform policy development and decision making for other sectors and interest groups.
