MCD43D11 Version 6 is a decommissioned NASA MODIS product providing the volumetric model parameter for Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) and Albedo calculations for MODIS band 4. It is a daily, global Climate Modeling Grid (CMG) product at 30 arc-second (1,000 meter) resolution, generated using 16 days of data from the Terra and Aqua satellites. The volumetric parameter, alongside isotropic and geometric parameters, is used to derive surface reflectance and albedo values for climate simulation models.
MCD43D05 Version 6.1 provides the volumetric parameter for the Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) model for MODIS band 2. This daily, global dataset is generated at a 30 arc-second (1,000 meter) resolution using 16 days of Terra and Aqua MODIS observations, temporally weighted to the ninth day. The volumetric parameter, alongside isotropic and geometric parameters, is used to derive albedo and BRDF values for climate and land surface modeling.
MCD43C2 Version 6.1 provides daily, global estimates of three Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) model parameters derived from 16 days of Terra and Aqua MODIS observations. The dataset includes 30 parameter layers for seven spectral bands plus visible, NIR, and shortwave bands, alongside ancillary quality and uncertainty layers. These snow-free model parameters are produced on a 0.05-degree Climate Modeling Grid to support climate simulation and land surface studies.
A global geospatial dataset predicting areas of sediment mobilization on continental shelves. The data is derived from significant wave height and period estimates produced by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Global climate models. It was published by the Australian Ocean Data Network and last updated on 2026-06-05.
January 1999 through December 2001 data from soil climate stations at oil contamination and control sites in Antarctica's Ross Sea Region. The dataset contains monthly summaries of soil temperature, soil moisture, and related atmospheric variables like air temperature, humidity, and wind. It was collected by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to study the environmental impact of oil spills.
NCEP/NCAR Arctic Marine Rawinsonde Archive provides 17,659 atmospheric soundings from the region north of 65 degrees North. This dataset, created by NASA from the National Center for Atmospheric Research archive, covers a 21-year period from 1976 to 1996. It complements land-based and drifting station Arctic atmospheric records.
July 1989 through August 1991 records capture temperature conditions for ice-wedge cracking in Salluit, northern Quebec. The dataset includes air temperature, soil temperature, wind speed and direction, plus temperature inside a data logger and resistance values along a cracking detection circuit. It was compiled by the Centre d'Etudes Nordiques and presented on the CAPS Version 1.0 CD-ROM in June 1998.
Surface velocities for 15 rock glaciers in the Selwyn Mountains of Yukon and Northwest Territories, Canada, were measured using surveyed markers. An average of six markers per glacier were surveyed in two distinct years, 1983 and 1995, using different instruments. The dataset, managed by NASA, also incorporates lichen ages and glacier lengths derived from surficial geology maps.
A 1990 joint seismic acquisition program by BMR and Woodside Petroleum in Australia's Dampier Sub-Basin. The survey collected 352 km of high-resolution seismic data and 530.6 km of water column geochemical data over five days in October 1990. The data is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network.
SMAP L1B Polarimetric GNSS Reflectometry, Version 1 provides approximately 1,200,000 observations per year of Earth's surface polarimetric properties. The dataset is derived from the Soil Moisture Active Passive mission radar, which measures reflected GPS signals in a bistatic configuration. It is produced and hosted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
Late Paleocene to Eocene bimodal volcanic rocks mapped along the Tintina Fault in east-central Yukon. The dataset, published by the Government of Yukon, includes results from fieldwork and geochronometry that expanded the known distribution of rhyolitic volcanics. It explores a potential link between these volcanic centers and the source of regional placer gold deposits.
Three samples of the Nordenskiold formation yielded concordant U-Pb zircon ages of 188.1 ยฑ 0.4 Ma, 187.2 ยฑ 0.4 Ma and 186.5 ยฑ 0.3 Ma, indicating multiple eruptive events. This dataset reports results from regional mapping of the northern Whitehorse trough in Yukon, conducted by the Government of Yukon. It includes ages for volcaniclastic units and intrusive rocks, with a Cretaceous granite sample dated at 112.8 ยฑ 0.2 Ma.
Remote predictive mapping at a 1:15,000 scale details the surficial geology of the greater Whitehorse area, supported by field investigations from 2017 to 2021. The dataset includes ten map sheets and an aggregate potential model, with a focus on identifying geohazards like landslides, permafrost, and flooding. A robust summary of unprecedented 2022 landslide activity along the Whitehorse escarpment is also provided.
23 ambient vibration measurements from sites in Haines Junction, Yukon, collected by the Government of Yukon. The data records microtremor seismic noise used to calculate horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratios and identify resonant frequencies. Preliminary results suggest a spatial trend of fundamental frequency related to proximity to the Dezadeash River basin.
Suomi-NPP VIIRS Level-3 Global Binned Triple-window Sea Surface Temperature (SST3) - Near Real-time (NRT) Data provides sea surface temperature retrieved with a triple-window thermal-infrared algorithm. This method combines three atmospheric windows near 8.6 ยตm, 11 ยตm, and 12 ยตm to better correct for water-vapor effects compared to standard split-window SST. The dataset is produced as a quicklook product, providing a snapshot of data during a short time period within a single orbit using the best-available ancillary data.
146 earthquakes were detected by a seven-station seismograph array operating on the Duke River Fault between May and August 1987. The Government of Yukon study located 44 events, delineating three distinct seismic zones and linking the Totschunda and Duke River Fault segments. Data includes epicenter distributions, S-P times, and focal plane solutions for the western Denali Fault System.
204 till samples were collected in the Tintina Trench near Ross River, Yukon Territory, to develop drift prospecting techniques. The silt plus clay fraction was analyzed for Au, and the clay fraction for 30 elements, with results for Au, Ag, Hg, and Sb discussed. The Government of Yukon published this dataset, which was last updated on April 17, 2026.
An inventory of over 100 permafrost-related landslides was created in 2006 for the Pelly River watershed in central Yukon. The Government of Yukon conducted the inventory using aerial photograph analysis, satellite imagery, and visual inspection from aircraft. The work was initiated in response to local community concerns about climate change impacts on slope stability and water quality.
Measurements of air temperature, pressure, relative humidity, and sea surface temperature collected via Aerosonde aircraft during the Tropical Cloud Systems and Processes (TCSP) field experiment. The dataset was created by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration during July 2005 in Costa Rica to study tropical waves that evolve into cyclones over the Pacific Ocean.
The Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority area in Victoria, Australia, is covered by this dataset of potential terrestrial Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems (GDEs). The Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action created it using a GIS overlay model with satellite remote sensing, geological, and groundwater monitoring data, largely from circa 1995 to 2005. This mapping identifies landscape locations where ecosystems are likely to be at least partly dependent on groundwater, serving as a first-step screening tool.
