[edit] Newer data

The reference to the data pointed to ftp://ftp.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/anomalies/annual.land_and_ocean.90S.90N.df_1901-2000mean.dat which did not match the data in the table. It looks like they changed their procedures and might have had an error on the site earlier this year. I copied in the relevant entries, but did not resort the rows. 2006 looks out of place with the NCDC data. If there is a reference for the middle column, maybe it should be added. If not, it should be removed. Drf5n (talk) 19:00, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sortable

The table should probably be sortable. --Falcorian ^(talk) 19:42, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
