120 years of climate change animated
Countries turn from mainly blue to mainly red in more recent years, illustrating the rise in average temperatures in that country.
For each country, the average temperature in 1971-2000 is set as the boundary between blue and red colors, and the color scale varies from +/- 2.6 standard deviations of the annual average temperatures between 1901-2000.
