Ongoing daily data from 2000 to present provides top-of-atmosphere, within-atmosphere, and surface radiative fluxes alongside cloud and aerosol properties. The dataset is produced by NASA's CERES project, synthesizing measurements from multiple satellite instruments including CERES, MODIS, VIIRS, and geostationary imagers. It offers parameters on a 1-degree regional spatial scale, computed using the Langley Fu-Liou radiative transfer model and normalized with CERES calibration.
A daily and monthly time series from 25 October 1978 to the present provides a Climate Data Record of sea ice concentration for both polar regions. The record is generated by combining estimates from the NASA Team and NASA Bootstrap algorithms applied to passive microwave data. All data are provided on a consistent 25 km x 25 km grid.
Permafrost of the Usa River Basin, Version 1 is a geospatial dataset containing ESRI Shapefiles for a region in Russia, including the Lek-Vorkuta and Bolshaya Rogovaya areas. The dataset from NASA includes four primary data layers: a base map, a permafrost layer, and two key permafrost areas, each with multiple sub-layers. It provides parameters such as permafrost temperature, continuity, lithology, and features like thermokarst and pingos.
1998 through 2011 climatology of gap wind and coastal upwelling events in the Gulf of Panama, Panama. The dataset was created by NASA's DISCOVER project using an automated algorithm on satellite-based microwave data for ocean surface winds and sea surface temperatures. It provides a multi-year record of identified atmospheric and oceanic events in this specific region.
1998 through 2011 data for the Gulf of Papagayo, Costa Rica, identifies gap wind and coastal upwelling events using an automated algorithm applied to satellite microwave data. The dataset spans 14 years and was produced by the NASA-funded DISCOVER project. It utilizes CCMP wind data and OISST sea surface temperature data to create a climatology of these ocean-atmosphere interaction events.
Schefferville, Quebec provides ground temperature data from 192 boreholes within the discontinuous permafrost zone. The dataset spans 1957 to 1982, with borehole depths ranging from 4 to 137 meters and record lengths varying from single measurements to over 16 years. It is structured in two linked tables containing borehole metadata and temperature readings, provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
The CENTURY model, Version 4, simulates carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur cycling across grasslands, agricultural lands, forests, and savannas. It integrates submodels for soil organic matter decomposition, water budgets, and plant production. Developed by NASA, this general plant-soil nutrient cycling model is used to assess ecosystem responses to climate change and management.
Methane and carbon dioxide dark chamber flux measurements were collected at four Northern Study Area sites in the boreal forest during the 1994 summer field campaign. The BOREAS TGB-01 team gathered gas samples from soil chambers approximately every seven days from May 16 to September 13, 1994, to examine trace gas exchange between the atmosphere and soils. This dataset originates from the NASA-led Boreal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study.
Plutonic rocks cover approximately 40% of the project area and comprise over 30 individual bodies. The dataset describes the geology between Whitehorse and the Yukon-BC border, including three allochthonous terranes, Cretaceous and Tertiary igneous rocks, and sedimentary rocks from the Upper Triassic to Late Cretaceous. It was published by the Government of Yukon and last updated in April 2026.
A 2001 project studied sludge behavior in northern climates, using samples from United Keno Hill and Faro mine sites. The final report presents results from sludge characterization, freeze-thaw, and leaching studies conducted in laboratory and field settings. The Government of Yukon published the findings.
Southern Ocean weekly sea ice limits were digitized from U.S. Navy Fleet Weather Facility ice charts at the Max-Planck Institut für Meteorologie in Hamburg. The dataset covers a 5.5-year period from January 1973 to June 1978, with data gridded at 5-degree longitude intervals. It is hosted by NASA and NSIDC but carries a cautionary note about a lack of formal quality checks.
Government of Yukon data describes basalt and rhyolite flows and breccias in the northwestern extension of Selwyn Basin. The volcanic unit is interpreted as overlapping seamounts, with basaltic rocks containing high concentrations of TiO2 (1.7-3.6%), P2O5 (0.5-1.2%), and Zr (140 ppm). The rocks are stratigraphically above Lower Cambrian Hyland Group argillite and beneath Middle Ordovician Road River Group chert.
A Government of Yukon report characterizes landslide settings, causes, and controls in the Alaska Highway corridor. The analysis describes landslide processes related to permafrost, bedrock, sediment, and hydrology across specific regions like Shakwak Valley and Liard Lowland. The report considers future climate change impacts on landslide frequency and magnitude.
The Wrangell lavas in southwestern Yukon comprise subalkaline basalt (31%), basaltic andesite (30%), andesite (21%), dacite (2%) and nepheline normative basalt (16%). This dataset from the Government of Yukon describes the mineralogy and stratigraphy of these volcanic rocks within the Late Cenozoic Wrangell volcanic belt. The chemical composition of the lavas reflects a transitional tectonic environment influenced by regional transpression and subduction.
U.S. Atlantic Coast winter snowstorms from 2020 to 2023 are simulated in this dataset using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. The data supports the IMPACTS field campaign, which aimed to study snowband formation, microphysics, and improve snowfall prediction. Files are provided in netCDF-3 format by NASA.
Geoscience Australia's Exploring for the Future Program presents the second iteration of 3D geological and hydrogeological surfaces across eastern Australian basins. The work updates surface extents and thicknesses for 18 region-wide hydrogeological units, incorporating new borehole, seismic, and airborne electromagnetic data. This model provides a consistent hydrogeological framework from the Gulf of Carpentaria to the Bight, Otway, and Gippsland basins.
Geoscience Australia Data provides a geological study of sandstone diagenesis in the Eromanga Basin, New South Wales. The dataset compares quartzose and volcanolithic petrofacies, detailing their authigenic minerals, porosity, and permeability. It was last updated on 2026-04-30.
Global volcanic sulfur dioxide and ash observations are derived from the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite's Enhanced Polychromatic Imaging Camera. The dataset applies mature retrieval algorithms from heritage instruments like TOMS and OMI to ultraviolet channels, enabling tracking of volcanic plumes. It is produced by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, with metadata indicating an update in March 2026.
Benson Kenduiywo's dataset contains participatory mapping results for climate security hotspots in 11 Kenyan counties. The data was generated through a framework involving five consensus-based Focus Group Discussions with local experts, who validated and augmented spatial analyses of global climate and conflict data. The dataset was last updated on April 30, 2026, and is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
Vantaa dual-polarimetric C-Band Doppler radar data was collected from September 16, 2010 through January 31, 2011 during the GPM Light Precipitation Validation Experiment (LPVEx) around the Gulf of Finland. This dataset provides reflectivity measurements for high-latitude, light precipitation systems to improve satellite precipitation algorithms. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration made the data available in RAW, UF, and PNG formats.
