If you're actually interested in the climate, you could study the 
modelling programs.  A place to start is discussed in Brian Hayes' 
article:

Global warming doubters pressed the Hansen group to publish the source 
code for a suite of programs known as GISTEMP, which extract 
temperature trends from historical weather observations. The code was 
released, but no one could understand it or get it to run. Nick Barnes 
and David Jones, two British computer scientists, gathered up the 
untidy collection of files and rewrote them as a single program in the 
Python language, “with an emphasis on code clarity that encouraged 
interested people to download, inspect, and run it themselves.” Their 
new program produces the same results as the original. Furthermore, by 
taking the mystery out of how the temperatures are calculated, they 
have changed the tenor of the conversation. GISTEMP is no longer so 
controversial.
