+<h3>Introduction</h3>
 This diagnostic aims to detect suspicious values or outliers (due to e.g. data corruption, unrealistic simulations, …) through the computation and display of histograms. A histogram is an approximate representation of the variable data distribution showing the different frequencies of appearance of all the observed values. Thus, outliers are usually identified in a histogram as data points clearly isolated from the main data distribution. The histograms are available for the global domain and for six different latitudinal bands (0º to 30º, 30º to 60º and 60º to 90º, for both the northern and southern hemispheres). Finally, the time evolution of the variable data distribution for the global domain is also shown at the bottom of this page. All plots are interactive allowing the user to zoom and move across the figure for better browsing.
-In order to automatically identify possible outliers, two different boundaries are used: <b>control limits</b> and <b>tolerance limits</b>:

-The <b>control limits</b> are based on specific statistical analyses and depend on the distribution of the variable considered.
