This visualization shows 420,000 years of historical temperature and CO2 data from the Vostok ice core, with both time series plotted together to reveal their long-term correlation. The chart uses D3.js with scales and axes to map time on the x-axis and the respective measurements on the y-axes, rendering the temperature and CO2 records as distinct line paths. Data is sourced from CDIAC, with the temperature record measured in degrees Celsius and CO2 concentration in parts per million by volume.

Gist 0af7bae9fec12b1008e2a7c104bc8cd2

This visualization presents the weekly mean atmospheric CO2 concentration measured at Mauna Loa, alongside historical comparisons from one and ten years prior. The chart displays the raw weekly data points as a time series, with the increase in CO2 since 1800 also visible. It uses D3.js to render the plot, reading from the NOAA ESRL data files. The visualization directly shows the rising trend of CO2 levels, emphasizing the long-term increase and seasonal cycles through the direct plotting of the dataset values.

ICE___7

This visualization reproduces the Keeling Curve, showing the rise in atmospheric CO₂ concentration from 1958 onward. The chart displays monthly average measurements as a black line over time, with a time-based x-axis and a linear y-axis for CO₂ levels. The data comes from NOAA's Global Monitoring Laboratory. The code uses d3.scaleTime, d3.scaleLinear, d3.line, d3.timeParse, and d3.csvParse within a standard d3.v7 framework to load, parse, and render the time-series line chart. Axes are drawn using d3.axisLeft and d3.axisBottom.

keeling Curve

This visualization reproduces the Keeling Curve, showing the monthly average atmospheric CO2 concentration from 1958 onward. The line chart displays a clear upward trend in CO2 levels over time, with the seasonal fluctuations visible in the data. The code uses d3.line to generate the path and d3.timeParse with the format '%Y-%m' to convert date strings into JavaScript Date objects, with axes rendered using d3.axisLeft and d3.axisBottom. Data comes from the Global Monitoring Laboratory’s Trends in Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide dataset.

Vega-Lite

This visualization, built with Vega-Lite, charts the rise of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels over time using a line chart. The data originates from the Scripps CO₂ program (Mauna Loa record), filtered to include only months with valid measurements. Each point represents a monthly average CO₂ concentration, plotted chronologically to reveal the overall upward trend and seasonal oscillations. The visualization is presented as a fork of an earlier block by domoritz, and the underlying dataset has been modified from its source to focus specifically on dates with complete records.

Keeling Curve

This interactive visualization displays the Keeling Curve, charting monthly average atmospheric CO2 concentrations from NOAA’s Mauna Loa records since 1958. The primary line shows measured averages, with a secondary lighter line for interpolated values. Using d3’s scaleLinear, line, axisLeft, and axisBottom, the code maps decimal dates to x-coordinates and CO2 values to y-coordinates, rendering SVG paths with gridlines. It reveals both the seasonal oscillation and the long-term rising trend in atmospheric carbon dioxide.

CO2

This line chart shows CO2 emission values from 2000 to 2014, with each data point marked by a circle that reveals its exact value on hover via a tooltip. The visualization uses D3 v4 to render an SVG with time-scaled X axis and linear Y axis, applying a basis curve to smooth the line path. It loads data from a CSV file and demonstrates axis customization, interactive mouse events, and tooltip styling.

CO2

This visualization displays global CO2 emissions from 2000 to 2014, showing a steady decline in values over time. The data is loaded from a CSV file using the D3 v4 and v5 libraries, with each value converted to a numeric format. The page, structured around an HTML container, fetches the dataset and logs it to the console, though the chart itself is not yet rendered. The example relies on D3’s `csv` method for data parsing and demonstrates a foundational step in building a time-series bar or line chart.
