Uranium-thorium dating of pedogenic carbonates aims to reconstruct the frequency and spatial pattern of past surface melting in Antarctica. The project, led by researchers under NSF award AMD_USAPDC, seeks to link these melting events to Milankovitch orbital cycles. Data collection involves samples from past scientific expeditions across the Antarctic continent.
Snow algae blooms and light absorbing particles like black carbon and dust are measured across the Western Antarctic Peninsula to assess their impact on snowmelt and climate. Data collection combines in-situ field measurements, ground-based photos, and high-resolution multi-spectral satellite imagery at 0.5-3m spatial resolution. The project is conducted by AMD_USAPDC and involves partnerships with the International Association of Antarctic Tour Operators, with data collection ongoing.
A shipboard survey collected seafloor heatflow/conductivity measurements, real-time seafloor visualization, water-column hydrothermal signal acquisition, and rock samples via dredging in the western Ross Sea. The project, conducted by AMD_USAPDC, aims to identify lithospheric heat sources influencing ocean-cryosphere dynamics. Deliverables include new geospatial information data publicly available via NSF-funded repositories.
CSIRO's eReefs project provides daily, reprojected Level 2P water quality data derived from Sentinel-3 OLCI satellite imagery at approximately 300-meter resolution. The dataset includes key parameters like chlorophyll-a (Chl-a), colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM), and total suspended solids (TSS), processed using the FUB-CSIRO Coastal Water Processor. It is hosted on the Australian government's data platform and maintained by the CSIRO Marlin Data Catalogue.
SPURS-2 shipboard radar screenshots provide a qualitative, high-resolution visual record of rain echoes over the ocean from 2016 and 2017 cruises. This dataset consists of uncalibrated backscatter images, as raw radar data could not be saved, intended for analyzing rainfall patterns and their role in ocean surface freshening. The associated 2019 publication details methods for interpreting these images to generate rain maps and understand salinity processes.
2006 to 2025 water quality data from six U.S. National Seashores and Historical Parks tracks anthropogenic nutrient enrichment in Northeast coastal zones. The Department of the Interior's monitoring program aims to diagnose causes of enrichment and detect changes in nutrient loads that could shift ecosystem structure. Data collection follows the NCBN's Estuarine Nutrient Enrichment Water Quality sampling protocol.
A 2004 monograph analyzes the last 33 million years of tectonic and climatic history in the Southern Ocean. The 344-page volume, published by the American Geophysical Union, presents research on the opening of the Tasmanian Gateway and its impacts on sedimentation and global climate.
1950 through 2099 of monthly climate data for the conterminous United States. The NASA Earth Exchange (NEX) provides high-resolution, bias-corrected projections from 33 climate models across four greenhouse gas emissions scenarios (RCPs). It includes monthly averaged maximum temperature, minimum temperature, and precipitation for retrospective (1950-2005) and prospective (2006-2099) periods.
Australian EEZ and surrounding waters are covered by this dataset of long-term seasonal sea surface temperature means. The data are derived from MODIS Aqua satellite images processed with NASA SeaDAS software, using monthly SST images from July 2002 to December 2017. This research is supported by the National Environmental Science Program Marine Biodiversity Hub.
CN-AEBench integrates ground meteorological observations from multiple sources. The dataset is hosted by AIWeather126 and was last updated on Hugging Face in May 2026. Access is currently restricted pending paper acceptance, requiring contact via email for early access.
Multi-decade retrospective simulations for the contiguous US (CONUS) from 1979 to 2023, with separate versions covering different periods. The dataset contains input and output from the NOAA National Water Model, including hourly streamflow and 3-hourly land surface data. It is provided by NOAA and is available in NetCDF and Zarr formats.
Operational Forecast Systems provide nowcasts and 48-120 hour forecasts for water levels, currents, temperature, and salinity in U.S. ports and coastal waters. The National Ocean Service runs these hydrodynamic models four times daily on NOAA supercomputers to support maritime navigation. This system improves upon traditional tide tables by incorporating wind, atmospheric pressure, and river flow data.
Two trenches reveal at least three reverse fault ruptures on the Akatore Fault, constrained between 13,314 B.C. and 1278 A.D. GPR profiles and sediment analyses suggest these earthquakes ended a minimum 110,000-year period of quiescence. The dataset presents slip rates of 0.3–2.4 mm/yr and recurrence intervals of 670–5110 years for seismic hazard assessment.
A full archive of PlanetScope satellite imagery products, including Level 1B Basic Scenes and Level 3B Ortho Scenes. The data consists of multispectral images in 4-band (blue, green, red, near-infrared) or 8-band (coastal-blue to near-infrared) formats, with ground sampling distances between 3.0 and 4.2 meters and a stated geometric accuracy of less than 10 meters RMSE. The archive is provided by Planet and made available through NASA's Earthdata platform.
NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program Project 31303 funded surveys of benthic foraminifera, benthic microalgae, and macroinvertebrates at 18 sites along a water quality gradient off Aua, American Samoa. Ecosystem Sciences Division scientists collected samples between September 9 and 28, 2022, preserved them in the field, and analyzed them via microscopy at the NOAA Inouye Regional Center. The dataset likely contains quantitative counts and taxonomic identifications for these three bioindicator groups.
Five seawater samples were collected at each of 18 sites across a known water quality gradient on Aua Reef in American Samoa from September 8-29, 2022. The samples were analyzed for chlorophyll-a, dissolved nitrogen compounds, dissolved phosphorus compounds, silicate, total suspended solids, and pH. This data was collected by NOAA divers and processed by the University of Hawaii at Manoa's SOEST S-Lab as part of a NOAA CRCP-funded mission.
Satellite observations from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) provide global mapping of ozone columns, profiles, and key air quality components. The dataset includes measurements of NO2, SO2, BrO, HCHO, aerosols, cloud properties, and UV-B radiation. Data is processed by NASA and ESA into four levels, from raw sensor counts to time-composited global grids.
Decadal warming rates of sea surface temperature for 58 Australian Marine Parks over a 25-year period from 1992 to 2016. The data is derived from the Sea Surface Temperature Atlas of the Australian Regional Seas (SSTAARS) and supported by the National Environmental Science Program (NESP) Marine Biodiversity Hub.
A unified data record from the AMSR-E and AMSR2 satellite instruments, intercalibrated by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). The dataset reports integrated water vapor, cloud liquid water, sea surface wind speeds, surface precipitation, soil moisture, and sea ice concentrations. Data are provided in gridded formats, including the NSIDC EASE-Grid Global projection for land products.
Continental United States root zone soil moisture data at a 0.125-degree resolution, produced daily from January 1979 to May 2019. The SMERGE product merges land surface model output from NLDAS with satellite retrievals from the European Space Agency Climate Change Initiative. This dataset is the recommended replacement for the AMSR-E/Aqua root zone soil moisture product.
