NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information holds over 3,000 tsunami marigram records, primarily as high-resolution digital TIFF images and original paper documents. These records include data from the historically significant April 1, 1946 tsunami event that impacted the Hawaiian Islands. The data was digitized under the NOAA Climate Data Modernization Program and is managed per the Big Earth Data Initiative for federal interoperability.
OCHA Colombia documented the number of people affected by natural disasters across Colombia from 2012 to 2019. The data is provided in XLSX format and incorporates HXL tags to facilitate humanitarian data exchange and interoperability.
February-March 2001 data from the Colorado snow albedo field experiment in the Yampa Valley, focused on validating satellite-derived snow albedo estimates from MISR and MODIS. The dataset contains Airborne Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (AirMISR) imagery collected on March 8, 2001, using a single pivoting camera on a NASA ER-2 aircraft to simulate nine MISR look angles. It was built by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory for NASA as part of ecological and climate studies.
An integrated dataset aggregating country-level measurements of PFAS contamination across environmental media. The data likely contains aggregated measurements for surface water, soil, and groundwater. The author, organization, and specific time range are unknown.
1985-2014 and 2025-2100 are the historical and future periods covered by this dataset of 3D atmospheric conditions for the contiguous United States. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency produced this collection of physics-based modeled data, which is dynamically downscaled from global climate models at a 12-kilometer horizontal grid spacing with hourly increments. Data are provided in netCDF 4 format, adhering to Climate and Forecasting (CF) compliance standards for interoperability.
EDDE Version 1 is a physics-based modeled dataset representing 3D atmospheric conditions for the contiguous United States at a horizontal grid spacing of 36 kilometers. The data includes hourly increments for historical periods (1975-2005, 1995-2005) and future scenarios (2025-2100) under RCP 4.5, 6.0, and 8.5, dynamically downscaled from CESM and GFDL CM3 global models using the WRF model. It is produced by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and stored in CF-compliant netCDF 4 format.
Two sets of assimilated meteorological data are available from the UK Meteorological Office for the UARS project. The data is produced by a global primitive equation model, assimilating observations from the World Weather Watch network and satellite data. Fields include temperature, geopotential height, and wind components on a 2.5° x 3.75° global grid interpolated to 22 pressure levels from 1000 to 0.316 hPa.
Sediment trap data and analysis from Potter Cove, King George Island, investigating the effects of glacial melt on coastal ecosystems. The project was conducted by SCIOPS in cooperation with the Direccion Nacional del Antartico and the Alfred-Wegener-Institut from 2002 to 2004. It focuses on vertical and horizontal transport of suspended particulate material.
NOAA Climate Data Record from Colorado State University contains brightness temperatures from SSM/I and SSMIS passive microwave radiometers on nine DMSP satellites. The record spans from July 1987 to present with near-global daily coverage from roughly 15 orbits per day. Data includes brightness temperatures for seven SSM/I and 24 SSMIS channels at original sensor resolution.
NOAA_NCEI's Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) Version 2.2 provides monthly satellite-gauge merged precipitation estimates. The dataset covers January 1979 onward, with a two-to-three month processing delay. This superseded version is maintained for reproducing prior studies.
October 1998 to present daily precipitation data on a global 1-degree grid. The dataset is produced by NOAA/NCEI, merging estimates from microwave, infrared, sounder satellite data, and precipitation gauge analyses. Files are updated monthly with a two to three month processing delay.
European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts maintains a Level III-A atmospheric data archive interpolated from its operational surface and pressure level data. The archive covers a 10-year period beginning 1 January 1985 and is subdivided into Basic, Supplementary Fields, and Extension datasets. It was created in support of projects associated with the World Climate Research Program.
Ross Island hosts a wireless network of atmospheric sensors deployed for climate monitoring. The data aims to improve spatial understanding of Antarctic climate parameters, addressing biases in existing weather station records. The project, led by SCIOPS, involved field testing 19 sensor nodes during the 2011 calendar year.
Instrumented site data from Tuz Golu, Turkey, one of eight CEOS Reference Test Sites for sensor calibration. The dataset supports vicarious calibration activities to ensure accuracy for Earth Observing satellites. It was established following a 2004 CEOS recommendation and is maintained by contributing space agencies.
Eight instrumented sites, provisionally called LANDNET, are designated as CEOS Reference Test Sites for sensor calibration. The Negev site in Southern Israel is used for field campaigns to obtain radiometric gain and facilitate international instrument inter-comparison. The data is maintained by the USGS Long Term Archive (LTA) under the Committee on Earth Observing Systems (CEOS) framework.
Dome C, Antarctica is one of eight instrumented CEOS Reference Test Sites for satellite sensor calibration and validation. The data supports traceable intercomparison of wide swath sensors to ensure high accuracy for climate change understanding and operational Earth observation services. The initiative was formulated by the CEOS Calibration and Validation subgroup in 2004, with data provision managed by member agencies like USGS_LTA.
NASA EarthData hosts annual measurements of the stable carbon isotope composition (13CO2) in the atmosphere at Arrival Heights, Ross Island. SCIOPS collects between 12 to 18 whole air samples per year using a pump system, with data traceable to IAEA standards. The time series began in March 1997.
Annual measurements of nitrous oxide (N2O) concentrations in dry air samples collected from Arrival Heights, Ross Island. Between 12 to 18 samples are collected each year, with the record beginning in May 1996. The dataset is produced by SCIOPS and measurements are traceable to World Meteorological Organisation scales.
Annual atmospheric samples from Arrival Heights, Ross Island, Antarctica, provide carbon dioxide (CO2) mixing ratios and 13C/12C isotopic ratios. The dataset contains 12 to 18 samples collected each year since December 1996. Measurements are maintained by SCIOPS and traceable to World Meteorological Organisation scales.
Microwave radiometer brightness temperature measurements were collected during the Convection and Moisture Experiment (CAMEX-1) campaign. The dataset covers a ten-day period from September 26 to October 5, 1993, over a region between 25.5N-43N latitude and 70W-83W longitude. Data originates from the Advanced Microwave Precipitation Radiometer (AMPR) instrument, managed by the GHRC DAAC.
