The Physical Sciences Division at the Earth System Research Laboratory in Boulder, CO has useful web sites for gridded meteorological variables, model output and climate indices.
Descriptions of gridded data sets and model output
For a comprehensive list of available gridded data and model output suitable for climate research, visit http://www.cdc.noaa.gov/PublicData/.
This site contains a wealth of information, including detailed
descriptions, spatial and temporal coverage, and references for the
data sets, as well as links to the data or model output.
Monthly or Seasonal Atmosphere & Ocean Time Series
Create monthly or seasonal atmosphere and ocean time series at http://www.cdc.noaa.gov/Timeseries/.
Sources include:
1) NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis monthly means,
2) NCEP/DOE AMIP-II Reanalysis monthly means, or
3) Interpolated OLR
4) US Climate Division: temperature, precipitation
and Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI)
5) Kaplan SST
6) U of Delaware Air Temperature/Precipitation
Monthly Mean Time Series of Climate Indices
Create monthly mean time series of climate indices for atmosphere or ocean at http://www.cdc.noaa.gov/ClimateIndices/.
