After updated rescaling factors:
I also want to mention that I personally find this dataset much more interesting/insightful with dataset min/max values, as the yearly cycles are visible but also the year to year increase, which I believe is as important, if not more, than yearly cycles

Thanks @leothomas , I think the second option makes sense, while we wait for a sliding legend to be developed.
CO2 (mean) measurements are very small, on the other order of ~400 parts per million. With values steadily increasing by about 2.5 parts per million each year, the rescalling factor used when displaying the tiles needs to be updated since more recent values are falling outside of the range of the rescaling factor. There are 2 options:
The CO2 scientists has indicated a clear preference for yearly min/max values. For the time being, we have no functionality to change the rescaling factors at any level lower than the dataset level, so option
1.
will not be possible for time being.This PR implements options 2, and we be sure to include this feature request in our discovery efforts for the next iteration of the dashboard/API.
