Michael Mann, one of the authors of the so-called hockey-stick graph.
Organised by topic with lots of links to other sites, especially
under Science Links Their one-stop list of quick links is here:

animations

http://www.eo.ucar.edu/basics/index.html more text-based, but it's
written for kids so it is accessible; individual topics along the left
