MODIS/Aqua Vegetation Indices Monthly L3 Global 0.05Deg CMG V006 provides global monthly composites of vegetation health from NASA's Aqua satellite. The dataset includes the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) for continuity and the Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) for improved sensitivity in high biomass areas, projected on a Climate Modeling Grid of 3,600 by 7,200 pixels. This Version 6 product was decommissioned in July 2023, with users directed to the updated Version 6.1.
Diagenetic overprints in quartzose and volcanolithic sandstones from the Eromanga Basin include physical compaction, clay infiltration, and cementation. The dataset, hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network, details authigenic mineral sequences and quantifies porosity and permeability, with volcanolithic sandstones averaging 35% porosity and quartzose sandstones averaging 29% porosity. This analysis correlates porosity-permeability patterns with the depositional environments of the Cadna-owie, Wallumbilla, Hooray, and Mooga Formations.
Global daily satellite data from the MODIS/Aqua instrument provides 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). Its collection began on July 4, 2002, and continues with 365 granules per calendar year.
7,200 by 3,600 grid cells provide monthly Land Surface Temperature and Emissivity values at a 0.05-degree resolution globally. The dataset is derived by compositing daily observations from the MODIS/Aqua satellite, with layers for daytime and nighttime LST, quality control, observation times, view angles, and clear-sky counts. Version 6 includes improvements such as the removal of cloud-contaminated LSTs and an updated split-window algorithm coefficient table.
Rock glacier inventory, Printse Valley, Valais, Switzerland, Version 1 is a geospatial dataset cataloging 71 rock glaciers across two sectors of the Printse Valley. For each feature, it includes characteristics like orientation, width, length, elevation, form type, material, activity, and lithology. The dataset also contains spring temperature and BTS (Bottom Temperature of Snow) measurements for some rock glaciers, with data collected between 1992 and 1997.
The Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators program provides data on total greenhouse gas emissions from the largest emitters in Canada for the 2024 reporting year. Data is collected through the mandatory Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program to inform climate policy and national inventory estimates. Information is provided in multiple formats including interactive maps, charts, and downloadable CSV tables.
NASA's IMPACTS campaign precipitation data consists of precipitation intensity and accumulation measurements from OTT Pluvio2 weighing rain gauges. The dataset supports the first major study of East Coast snowstorms in 30 years, aiming to understand snowband formation, microphysical characteristics, and improve snowfall prediction. Files are available in ASCII-CSV format from January 7, 2020, through March 2, 2023.
Approximately 300 km offshore of San Francisco, this dataset contains atmospheric sounding profiles from the Sub-Mesoscale Ocean Dynamics Experiment (S-MODE) field campaign. Measurements of temperature, winds, and moisture were collected using shipboard Windsond S1H3-S radiosondes launched from the R/V Oceanus during a pilot campaign in October 2021 and intensive periods in Fall 2022 and Spring 2023. The original 1Hz observations were gridded onto a uniform 20 m vertical grid to a maximum elevation of at least 5 km above ground level.
The Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators program tracks ambient concentrations of sulphur dioxide and other pollutants at national, regional, urban, and local monitoring station levels. Environment and Climate Change Canada provides this data in multiple formats including CSV, interactive maps, and downloadable reports. The indicators are presented with corresponding Canadian Ambient Air Quality Standards where available.
Three weather stations at Akuliaqattak, Silasiutitalik, and Ailaktalik, plus data from Kangiqtugaapik Airport, have collected environmental measurements since June 2010. The Silalirijiit Project links this local-scale environmental modeling with Inuit knowledge to evaluate the impacts of changing weather on human activities. Data collection is ongoing, with current conditions available via an online interface, and future archiving planned at the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC).
Nine years of field measurements from 1983 to 1991 document the seasonal and annual dynamics of frozen ground in Iceland's central highlands. Data include mean active layer depth with standard error, recorded three times per growing season at 51 permanent points across different plant communities and on 12 palsas. The dataset also contains monthly environmental variables such as degree days above zero, precipitation, snow depth, and frost degree days.
Underway data from the RV Investigator voyage IN2018_E01 between June 9 and June 11, 2018. The Marine National Facility collected continuous navigation, thermosalinograph, and atmospheric measurements. This data is supplied to IMOS AODN and NOAA for satellite sea surface temperature validation.
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.
