A manually curated database links ship tracks observed in satellite imagery to specific vessels using Automatic Identification System data. The dataset includes ship emission rates, cloud microphysical properties, and local meteorology from MODIS and ERA5 reanalysis. It was compiled by Rodrigo Quilelli Correa Rocha Ribeiro at Imperial College London.
UKCP09 provides long-term average precipitation values for the 1961-1990 climate baseline. The dataset contains monthly averages for 14 UK administrative regions and 23 river basins, calculated from 5 x 5 km grid cells. It was created with financial support from the UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and promoted by the UK Climate Impacts Programme.
UKCP09 provides long-term average precipitation data for a 30-year climate baseline. The dataset contains annual averages for the greatest 5-day precipitation total across 14 UK administrative regions and 23 river basins. Data was produced with support from the UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and is promoted by the UK Climate Impacts Programme.
Multi-source global wetland maps combine regularly flooded wetlands from satellite imagery with groundwater-driven wetlands from hydrological modelling. Seven composite maps were generated at approximately 500-meter resolution, estimating global wetland extents of 27.5 and 29 million km². The dataset was developed by Ardalan Tootchi of the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique.
Three submerged, living patch coral reefs covering 80 km² were discovered in the southern Gulf of Carpentaria, Australia. The reefs were identified using multibeam swath sonar, seabed sampling, and underwater video, with their upper surfaces at a mean depth of 28.6±0.5 meters. This dataset, hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network, points to a late Quaternary phase of reef growth under different climate conditions.
The dataset from the Australian Ocean Data Network presents a palaeogeographic analysis of the Bass Strait land-bridge. It uses high-resolution bathymetry to model landscape change and shoreline transgression during sea-level rise after the Last Ice Age. The study, cited in Quaternary Science Reviews (2025), finds transgression rates exceeding 30 meters per year, which would have drowned 15 km of land within a human lifetime.
The Sabrina Coast slope seaward of the Totten Glacier in East Antarctica (112°E-122°E) displays submarine canyons and ridges formed by sediment accretion and mass movement. The dataset, published in Marine Geology in 2020, likely contains geomorphological features from a study by O'Brien et al. that divides the area into eastern and western regions with distinct characteristics. These features are described as prime locations for sampling sedimentary records of glacier-ocean interaction.
5,729 end-of-summer snowline altitude observations derived from manual mapping of 2,257 glaciers in the trans-Himalayan region of Ladakh. The dataset, authored by Mohd Soheb, covers four periods between 1977 and 2019. It shows snowline altitudes have risen on over 85% of glaciers studied.
VNP43D33 provides the geometric parameter for the Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) and Albedo model at a 0.865 μm near-infrared (NIR) wavelength. This daily product is generated from 16 days of Suomi NPP VIIRS data, aggregated to a 30 arc-second (1,000 meter) Climate Modeling Grid (CMG) covering the entire globe. The geometric parameter, alongside isotropic and volumetric parameters, is used to derive surface albedo and anisotropy for climate simulation and land surface monitoring.
VNP43D52 provides a daily, global snow status layer at 30 arc-second (1,000 meter) resolution. The product is generated using 16 days of data from the Suomi NPP VIIRS sensor, temporally weighted to the ninth day, and is formatted for use in climate simulation models. Its single data layer classifies each pixel as either 'Snow-free Albedo Retrieved' or 'Snow Albedo Retrieved'.
Global daily data provides the geometric model parameter for the Visible (0.64 μm) broadband, derived from 16 days of Suomi NPP VIIRS observations at 1,000-meter resolution. This parameter is part of a suite used to calculate Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) and albedo values for climate simulation models. The product is formatted in a Climate Modeling Grid (CMG) and is temporally weighted to the ninth day of the 16-day observation period.
VNP43D50 Version 1 is a decommissioned NASA/NOAA Suomi NPP satellite product providing daily valid observation quality layers for VIIRS band M11. It uses 16 days of data at 30 arc-second (1,000 meter) resolution, temporally weighted to the ninth day, and is formatted in a global Climate Modeling Grid. The product is affected by known issues with aerosol flag activation that reduce high-quality BRDF inversions over arid surfaces.
Daily global data from the Suomi NPP VIIRS satellite provides white-sky albedo values for the 1.61 μm (M10) band at a 30 arc-second (1,000 meter) resolution. Each daily value is produced using a 16-day data window, temporally weighted to the ninth day, and formatted for use in climate simulation models on a global Climate Modeling Grid. This product is part of a larger BRDF/Albedo suite and was decommissioned in July 2025, with users directed to newer Version 2 data products.
