A 2018 lecture details a technical capacity-building program between Australian and Indonesian scientists following the 2004 Sumatra earthquake. The collaboration aimed to improve earthquake science, produce a modern seismic hazard map for Indonesia, and establish a foundation for sustainable risk reduction. The talk was presented by Prof. Phil R. Cummins as part of the Distinguished Geoscience Australia Lecturer series.
Flux tower measurements of energy and mass exchange between the surface and atmospheric boundary-layer in a semi-arid eucalypt woodland using eddy covariance techniques. The data has been processed to a final, gap-filled product with Net Ecosystem Exchange partitioned into Gross Primary Productivity and Ecosystem Respiration.
This release contains flux tower measurements of energy and mass exchange between the surface and atmosphere in a semi-arid eucalypt woodland, processed using PyFluxPro (v3.3.3). The data includes Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) partitioned into Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER). The site is located on a low-lying plain in Australia with an elevation of 250m and mean annual precipitation of 640mm.
Sentinel-3A satellite data provides Level-1B full-resolution Top of Atmosphere (TOA) radiances and brightness temperatures from two primary instruments. The Ocean and Land Colour Instrument (OLCI) captures reflected solar radiation in 21 spectral bands at a 300-meter ground resolution over a 1270km swath, while the Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer (SLSTR) provides co-located nadir and along-track views for surface temperature retrieval. Products are delivered as netCDF files containing calibrated radiances, brightness temperatures, geocoordinates, time stamps, and quality flags.
This release contains flux tower measurements of energy and mass exchange between the surface and atmospheric boundary-layer in a semi-arid eucalypt woodland. The data has been processed to a final, gap-filled product using PyFluxPro (v3.3.0), partitioning Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) into Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (ER). The site was established in June 2011 and is managed by Edith Cowan University.
This release contains flux tower measurements of energy and mass exchange between the surface and atmosphere in a semi-arid eucalypt woodland, processed using PyFluxPro v3.3.3. The data includes final, gap-filled products with Net Ecosystem Exchange partitioned into Gross Primary Productivity and Ecosystem Respiration. The station was established in 2017 in Wandoo Woodland, surrounded by broadacre farming.
A terrain evaluation study identified over 35 areas of landslide activity in the Little Salmon Lake area of central Yukon. Field work in summer 2004 provided ground truth and characterized prominent landslides. The dataset likely contains observations on four distinct landslide processes: debris flow, rock slumping, bimodal flow, and multiple retrogressive slumping.
July and August 1957 experimental seismic survey results from the Oodnadatta area of the Great Artesian Basin in South Australia. The survey was conducted by Geoscience Australia to test whether reflections could be recorded from beneath a siliceous duricrust and to verify if surface-mapped geological structures persist with depth. The record is provided as PDF and HTML documents.
NOAA-17 satellite's AVHRR instrument provides sea surface temperature data for the Atlantic Ocean with a ground resolution of 1.1 km. This Level 2P dataset is processed under the GHRSST framework from Local Area Coverage binary data originally produced by the US Naval Oceanographic Office. The dataset is available on multiple government platforms, indicating its established use in the scientific community.
Over the Boreal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study (BOREAS) region, this dataset provides large-scale atmospheric definition from a network of upper-air stations. It contains basic upper-air parameters, including atmospheric pressure, temperature, humidity, and winds, collected via radiosonde flights. Data collection occurred during field campaigns in 1993, 1994, and 1996, supplementing the existing AES aerological network.
Q-CLASS provides reconstructed natural and actual streamflow data for China's large dam sites from 1961 to 2014, with measurements in units of 10,000 cubic meters per year. The dataset, published by Yu et al. in 2026, is stored in a 557.3 KB ZIP file containing two CSV files. It is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license on figshare.
NASA's GOLD mission provides exospheric temperature (TLIMB) data derived from limb scans of N2 LBH airglow emissions in the 137-160 nm range. The retrieval algorithm fits a Chapman function to brightness profiles between 100 and 300 km altitude to infer temperature, independent of absolute calibration. The dataset is produced by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and was last updated in March 2026.
Spectral reflectance data were collected at the ground level across three boreal forest sites in Northern Manitoba (56°N, 98°W). This dataset was part of the Boreal Ecosystem-Atmospheric Study (BOREAS) TE-09 project, aiming to link understory light levels with airborne imagery for photosynthesis modeling. The project involved NASA and included canopy modeling, architecture measurements, and photometric readings.
More than 50 trace gases, including C2-C10 non-methane hydrocarbons, C1-C2 halocarbons, C1-C5 alkyl nitrates, and sulfur compounds, were measured during NASA's ATom mission. The UC-Irvine Whole Air Sampler collected samples aboard the NASA DC-8 aircraft, which performed global atmospheric profiling from 0.2 to 12 km altitude across four seasons. Data collection spanned from 2016 to 2018, with the dataset managed by ORNL_CLOUD.
Antarctica, Hawaii, and Fiji vertical ozone profiles were collected using Electrochemical Concentration Cell (ECC) Ozonesondes during the ATom-4 campaign. This balloon-borne instrument ascends to 35 km, pairing ozone concentration measurements with radiosonde meteorological data. The dataset is managed by ORNL_CLOUD, with conflicting last update dates reported as 2018 and 2026.
BMR Marine Survey 68 collected geophysical data in the northeast Gippsland Basin and southern New South Wales margin. The cruise was conducted between 21 March and 15 April 1987. The Australian Ocean Data Network provides explanatory notes summarizing the processing techniques applied to the non-seismic data.
Global EASE-Grid 8-day Blended SSM/I and MODIS Snow Cover, Version 1 provides global snow-covered area and snow water equivalent data from 2000 through 2008. The dataset is produced by the NSIDC, blending microwave data from the Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) with optical data from MODIS/Terra. It is gridded to 25 km Northern and Southern Equal-Area Scalable Earth Grids for continental-scale time-series analysis.
Web camera images provide a visual record of weather conditions at five sites in Ontario, Canada, during the GPM Cold-season Precipitation Experiment (GCPEx). The dataset was collected by the Global Hydrology Resource Center DAAC from January 15 to March 1, 2012, using fixed outdoor AXIS P1343-E network cameras with day/night functionality. These images supported the validation and improvement of satellite-based snowfall retrieval algorithms.
Over 90 GNSS ground stations distributed around the Pacific Ring of Fire monitor four major constellations to produce near-real-time total electron content (TEC) time series. Developed at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), the GUARDIAN system provides validated 5-second sampled data for detecting ionospheric perturbations. This dataset is managed by NASA's CDDIS and is available in BIN, ISO, and HTML file formats.
Cycle 3 of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) provides a polygon dataset of Surface Water Operational Catchments for economic appraisal. These catchments group multiple WFD water bodies, including transitional and coastal waters, based on pressures and measures, though they may not be hydrologically precise. The dataset was created using hydrological models based on Environment Agency LiDAR data and the Detailed River Network.
