These tools help scientists quickly examine data to identify specific features, e.g., trends, geographical distributions, etc., and determine whether a further study is needed. All of the tools are designed and implemented to be general so that data from models, observation, and reanalysis are processed and displayed in a unified way to facilitate fair comparisons. The services prepare and display data as a colored map or an X-Y plot and allow users to download the analyzed data. Basic visual capabilities include 1) displaying two-dimensional variable as a map, zonal mean, and time series 2) displaying three-dimensional variable’s zonal mean, a two-dimensional slice at a specific altitude, and a vertical profile. General analysis can be done using the difference, scatter plot, and conditional sampling services. All the tools support display options for using linear or logarithmic scales and allow users to specify a temporal range and months in a year. The source/input datasets for these tools are CMIP5 model outputs, Obs4MIP observational datasets, and ECMWF reanalysis datasets. They are stored on the server and are selectable by a user through the web services. === Service descriptions === 1.

These tools help scientists quickly examine data to identify specific features, e.g., trends, geographical distributions, etc., and determine whether a further study is needed. All of the tools are designed and implemented to be general so that data from models, observation, and reanalysis are processed and displayed in a unified way to facilitate fair comparisons.

Basic visual capabilities include 1) displaying two-dimensional variable as a map, zonal mean, and time series 2) displaying three-dimensional variable’s zonal mean, a two-dimensional slice at a specific altitude, and a vertical profile. General analysis can be done using the difference, scatter plot, and conditional sampling services.
