The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration recently announced that it is consolidating its climate change research capabilities into the NOAA Climate Service office. As part of this consolidation, the NOAA Climate Services has recently installed a dashboard on their web site for the dissemination of climactic data in a user-friendly format. The dashboard has two tabs. The first tab, called Climate Change, covers all the hot-topic issues, such as the yearly temperature, carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, sea level rise, incoming sunlight, and decreasing Arctic sea ice. The published data ranges from 1880 for temperature through 2008. Some data series, such as the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, do not go back the full range. The second tab, called Climate Variability, covers the Oceanic Nino index, Southern Oscillation index, Pacific-North American pattern, North Atlantic Oscillation index, and the Arctic Oscillation index. The published data for the Climate Variability data ranges from 1950 for temperature through 2008.

seem to me that carbon and temperature graph have same angle, with little time distance, maybe that ice and oceans capacity
