Useful databases on the internet to obtain weather/climate and geographic information:
Exploration by graphs
  1. explanation of geographic terms (from the Encyclopaedia Britannica)
  2. a partial map going between latitude values 34N and 34S
  3. Los Angeles vs. Osaka: the two location on the map
  4. Los Angeles vs. Buenos Aires: the two loacations on the map
  5. Los Angeles vs. Buenos Aires: scatterplot with months identified
  6. draftsman's display
  7. scatter plot vs. quantile-quantile plot
  8. multipanel window with all quantile-quantile pairs

Question: which three cities are the most similar in terms of their temperature distributions?
