Air Temperature
The Climate Shift Index® indicates how climate change has altered the frequency of daily temperatures in any location around the world, every day. It’s grounded in peer-reviewed attribution science and was launched by Climate Central in 2022.
Ocean temperature
The Climate Shift Index: Ocean quantifies the influence of climate change on sea surface temperatures. It’s grounded in peer-reviewed attribution science and was launched by Climate Central in 2024.
Tropical Cyclone Intensity
Climate change is warming oceans worldwide, and that added heat is fueling stronger hurricanes. The Climate Shift Index: Tropical Cyclones (Tropical Cyclone CSI), launched in 2025, uses the Climate Shift Index: Ocean and new peer-reviewed methods to show how much climate change has added to the strength of a storm’s winds.
Coastal Risk Finder
