I'd like to introduce a new page on my website: U.S. climate indicator visuals (zacklabe.com/united-state...).
I only have a few basic variables so far, but I will be expanding this summer to add a range of metrics (e.g., ecological). I welcome suggestions! Hope this is useful, especially nowadays.
