Climate data refers to information collected from various sources such as weather stations, satellites, and ocean buoys that provides insights into long-term weather patterns, trends, and variations in the Earth's climate system. This data includes measurements of temperature, precipitation, humidity, wind speed, and other factors that help scientists study and understand changes in the climate over time. Climate data is used to track and analyze climate change, assess the impacts of human activities on the environment, and inform decision-making processes related to climate adaptation and mitigation strategies.
