Using Alteryx To Understand Climate Change
This is my second appearance on the Alteryx podcast. In this episode, I talk about my decade of work on climate change. It isn’t very technical, but I hope people appreciate the insights.

This article investigates the sensitivity of my global warming simulator to the length of the simulations. I wanted to understand if 10, 20 , 30 or more years of data would be required before stable temperature predictions would be achieved.
This article discusses how I helped build the first-ever Alteryx E-Grand Prix competition. The article includes thoughts on building the competition problems and the behind-the-scenes activities that have to happen to make this type of event successful.
Eight years ago, I had no idea that my work would lead to the topic of this article. Predicting temperatures far into the future is really hard to do. Somehow, I’ve managed to create a method that seems pretty good at doing that.
Eight years of data-driven global warming research is wrapped up in this article. You can unpack a half-a-billion data points in this article to explore the ideas for yourself. You can download Tableau dashboards that will teach you a thing or two about linear modeling. Most of all, you will gain a better understanding of what is going on across our beautiful planet if you take the time to study this work.
Is Alteryx valuable enough for you? To help you decide, I’ve written a few thoughts on the topic. Please read the article to learn more.
Alteryx has a secret weapon when working with large data sets. This weapon is called Calgary files. In this article, I show an example of using Calgary files.
Today is Earth day which reminded me that I wanted to talk about a peculiar temperature change pattern I’ve detected. I don’t have the answer of why it has occurred over a four-day window in April. This pattern is revealing itself over 60 years through millions of temperature readings. Be sure to get to the end of the file to see the baby birdies!
I have been conducting focused work for six years that has allowed me to create something interesting. I can now produce global warming calendars that allow me to track how global warming is impacting temperatures in any region of the world. In this article, I show monthly calendars for the United States.
It is not easy to explain the significance of the global warming work that I am doing. There are times, however, when the data sets align perfectly and I try to use the information to help people understand global warming. Today is one of those days – July 25, 2019.
I have been on a mission for five years. This mission continues to fascinate me as Mother Nature is sharing her secrets with me. I have been working to understand global warming so that I can teach people about what is really happening on our planet. This is my story.
Each day I get to fulfill my analytics dreams. This occurs because of great software from Alteryx, Tableau, and Mapbox, as well as having very talented friends like Allan Walker and Anya A’Hearn. To learn about my latest global warming insights, read this article.
For me, every day is an Earth Day. The video shown in this article explains why that is the case.
Global warming has been visualized using world-wide temperature anomaly data. This work uses a pre-computed data set to understand temperature changes over the past 7 decades.
This is the second of a three part series showing how Tableau, Alteryx and Power BI can be used to perform trend modeling of data. In this article, Alteryx is used to perform the work.
