Global Temperature Trends Analysis

Description

A comprehensive app analyzing global temperature trends from 1743-2013, using Python for data processing and visualization to understand climate changes and regional differences.

Project Overview

The Global Temperature Trends Analysis project aims to explore and understand the changes in average temperatures worldwide over a period of 270 years. The project utilizes advanced data processing and analysis techniques to uncover long-term climate trends, identify anomalies, and compare regional temperature changes. The dataset used in this analysis is sourced from Kaggle, ensuring a broad and reliable range of data.

Goals

• Understanding Temperature Trends: Analyze long-term trends in global temperature changes.
• Identifying Anomalies: Detect years that deviate from overall trends, indicating potential extreme climatic events.
• Regional Comparisons: Compare temperature changes across different regions of the world.
• Climate Change Conclusions: Draw conclusions about global warming and its impact on Earth's climate.

Techniques and Tools Used

• Python: Programming language used for data processing and analysis.
• Python Libraries: Utilization of pandas for data manipulation, Matplotlib, and Seaborn for visualization.
• Statistical Analysis: Applying statistical methods for data analysis to interpret the results.

Project Structure

• data/: Contains the dataset GlobalLandTemperaturesByMajorCity.csv.
• notebooks/: Jupyter notebooks containing the analysis and visualizations.
• README.md: Documentation of the project.
