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 This superseded version is maintained for reproducing prior studies.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.
August 23-30, 1995, data from the Advanced Microwave Precipitation Radiometer (AMPR) deployed during the Convection and Moisture Experiment 2 (CAMEX-2). The dataset contains brightness temperature measurements collected at four microwave frequencies (10.7, 19.35, 37.1, and 85.5 GHz) over a defined geographic region. It is hosted by the NASA GHRC DAAC.
Daily global atmospheric profiles from the AIRS instrument aboard NASA's Aqua satellite, gridded into 1-degree cells. The dataset provides averaged geophysical parameters, standard deviations, and input counts for each daily file, covering both ascending and descending orbits. It is produced by NASA's Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center (GES DISC).
Raw radiosonde and pilot balloon observations from various global locations are transmitted in the World Meteorological Organization BUFR format. Variables likely include temperature, humidity, wind direction and speed, pressure, height, and launch displacement metadata. This data stream, beginning in May 2017, provides vertical atmospheric profiles with varying resolution for weather analysis.
Daily operational sea surface temperature analysis produced by the UK Met Office using optimal interpolation. The dataset integrates satellite data from AVHRR, SEVIRI, GOES, IASI, and TMI sensors with in-situ ship and buoy measurements on a global 0.054-degree grid. It is produced for use as a lower boundary condition in Numerical Weather Prediction models and adheres to GHRSST GDS version 2 specifications.
Daily global sea surface temperature analysis produced on a 0.05-degree grid using an optimal interpolation method. The Danish Meteorological Institute generates this dataset operationally by combining nighttime skin and subskin temperature observations from multiple satellite sensors, including AVHRR, SEVIRI, AMSR2, VIIRS, and MODIS. It follows the GHRSST Data Processing Specification version 2 and incorporates an ice mask from the EUMETSAT OSI-SAF.
Sensor stations on Seattle bridges and streets record street surface and ambient air temperature every second, averaging readings into a minute-by-minute time series. The City of Seattle updates this dataset hourly, storing only the most recent 48 hours of data. This provides a near-real-time view of localized road conditions.
