North Carolina is the focus of this dataset containing navigation and atmospheric parameters from a Cessna Citation II research aircraft. It was collected by the University of North Dakota for NASA's Global Precipitation Measurement Ground Validation IPHEx field campaign from March 6 to June 13, 2014. The data supports the evaluation of satellite precipitation measurements and hydrological modeling.
Global daily land surface albedo data at 30 arc-second (1,000 meter) resolution, produced using 16 days of Terra and Aqua MODIS observations. This dataset provides black-sky albedo (directional hemispherical reflectance) specifically for MODIS band 7, as part of a suite of 20 albedo layers designed for climate simulation models. Data are temporally weighted to the ninth day of a 16-day composite period.
Monthly and annual data quantify the exposed land area of seasonally and intermittently frozen ground across the Northern Hemisphere from 1901 to 2001.
