[Fwd] New Website: Air temperature in North America

As part of ongoing research, a new website that has information on
recent air-temperature trends over North America (U.S.A. and Canada) has
been developed:

http://mypage.iu.edu/~srobeson/grd/

Specifically, the site has information on trends in time-varying
percentiles (from the 5th to the 95th, in 5-percentile intervals) of
both daily minimum and maximum air temperature for the period 1948-2000.
  Both summary graphics and data tables are available for nearly 400
grid points. This work is discussed in more depth here:

minimum and maximum temperature over North America," Geophysical
