AMPR instrument data captures passive microwave brightness temperatures from a NASA airborne platform during the 2007 TC4 field campaign. The dataset covers a three-week period from July 19 to August 8, 2007, with observations from San Jose, Costa Rica. It provides multi-frequency imagery at 10.7, 19.35, 37.1, and 85.5 GHz, a combination unique to NASA aircraft at the time.
Eight field mills and two conductivity probes aboard a NASA ER-2 aircraft captured detailed electrical field measurements of lightning over the Amazon basin. This dataset provides a month-long time series from January to February 1999, specifically collected to validate satellite-based lightning observations from the TRMM mission's Lightning Imaging Sensor. Data is stored in HDF-4 format with accompanying GIF browse imagery.
CSIRO's RV Investigator voyage IN2026_T01 End of Voyage archive contains raw data collected during a transit from Hobart to Fremantle between March 06 and March 14, 2026. The Marine National Facility curated data from over 30 instruments, including acoustic profilers, greenhouse gas analyzers, atmospheric sensors, and wildlife observations. Processed data is publicly available via the MNF Data Trawler.
Six tropical cyclone-prone ocean basins are covered by this dataset, which provides a unified framework for hurricane science research. It aggregates observations from multiple TRMM satellite instruments for each orbit coincident with a tropical cyclone. Researchers at Florida International University and the University of Utah created the database by extracting precipitation features identified as tropical cyclones using official best-track data.
Global satellite data from the NOAA-20 spacecraft provides daily cloud mask, cloud top, and cloud optical retrieval information on a 1x1 degree grid. The dataset contains 32 aggregated science parameters designed for direct comparison with climate model output via the CFMIP Observation Simulator Package (COSP). Data collection began on February 17, 2018, and includes 365 daily files per calendar year.
This dataset contains minute-resolution S-band radar profiler measurements collected during the Midlatitude Continental Convective Clouds Experiment (MC3E) in Oklahoma from April to June 2011. It was created by NASA to provide detailed vertical profiles of reflectivity and velocity within convective systems for validating satellite rainfall retrievals and improving weather models. The data is stored in netCDF format, containing both spectral and moment files.
A long-term dataset provides daily precipitation measurements interpolated onto half-degree and one-degree latitude/longitude grids covering global land areas. The data is constructed from station observations sourced from the Global Telecommunications System (GTS) and processed using the Shepard (1968) interpolation algorithm. It consists of 6 data files, facilitating analysis of precipitation patterns and trends.
The RV Investigator voyage IN2026_V01 collected data in the Southern Ocean between January 02, 2026 and February 25, 2026, departing from and returning to Hobart. The archive includes raw data from over 40 instruments measuring atmospheric, oceanic, and biological parameters. The CSIRO National Collections and Marine Infrastructure Information and Data Centre curates the archive, with processed data publicly available via the Marine National Facility Data Trawler.
Three meteorological stations in Pará, Brazil, provide daily total precipitation data from 1961 to 1998. The dataset covers two Amazonian research sites, Altamira and Santarém, with station-specific coverage periods ranging from 1961-1990 to 1982-1998. Data was retrieved from the Brazilian National Institute of Meteorology (INMET) network and compiled by NASA.
Ground cover in grazing lands across Queensland declined in 2019 compared to the long-term mean. More than two-thirds of Queensland was wholly or partly drought declared by the end of 2019. The dataset is provided by the Queensland Department of Environment, Science and Innovation under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
Relative Height is a point feature class representing the relative heights of vertical cliff faces. The data underpins navigation, climate science, and emergency management, and was initially captured from stereoscopic aerial photography at scales of 1:25,000, 1:50,000, and 1:100,000. It is provided by Spatial Services, a business unit of the Department of Customer Service NSW, and has been updated to the GDA2020 national spatial standard.
Northern Hemisphere eddy-covariance measurements from 103 sites, comprising 859 site-years of gross primary productivity (GPP) data. The dataset quantifies three underlying GPP components—GPPmax, carbon uptake period (CUP), and αGPP—to analyze spatial and interannual variability. It was authored by Zhaogang Liu and last updated in May 2026.
Panel data for 69 developing countries from 2011 to 2021 assesses the impact of development finance for climate on public health and life satisfaction. The dataset likely contains variables for crude death rate, life satisfaction scores, and DFC amounts, analyzed using instrumental-variable generalized method of moments. It was authored by Dinkneh Gebre Borojo and published on figshare under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
June 28 to July 30, 2023 voyage data from the RV Investigator's SEA-MES Voyage 1, investigating changes in the southeast marine ecosystem. The archive is curated by CSIRO's National Collections and Marine Infrastructure Information and Data Centre and includes raw data from instruments like ADCPs, CTDs, echosounders, and environmental sensors. Processed data is made publicly available through the Marine National Facility Data Trawler.
An end-of-voyage archive from the RV Investigator's IN2025_V06 expedition, titled 'The Coral Sea frontier: Deep-sea biodiversity assessment of the Coral Sea Marine Park.' The voyage was conducted by the Marine National Facility between October 10 and November 14, 2025, departing from and returning to Brisbane. Data were curated by the CSIRO National Collections and Marine Infrastructure Information and Data Centre.
Version 11r is the current version of this dataset, superseding all older versions. The Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) is the first NASA mission designed to collect space-based measurements of atmospheric carbon dioxide with the precision, resolution, and coverage needed to characterize the processes controlling its buildup. Its instrument incorporates three high-resolution spectrometers making coincident measurements of reflected sunlight at specific near-infrared wavelengths for CO2 and molecular oxygen.
Daily measurements from 2012 onward provide global coverage of atmospheric sulfur dioxide (SO2) columns. Data are collected by the OMPS Nadir-Mapper sensor on the Suomi-NPP satellite and processed using a principal component analysis (PCA) spectral fitting algorithm. The product is gridded at a 0.25 x 0.25 degree resolution using a 'best pixel' method for the daylight portion of each orbit.
