Tide, wave and ocean energy data covers production and use for electricity and heat generation. The dataset, provided by the International Energy Agency (IEA) and hosted by NASA Earthdata, includes efficiency metrics where quantities entering electricity generation equal the electrical energy generated. It was last updated by the organization CEOS_EXTRA on 2004-12-31.
Emissions data from public electricity generation, combined heat and power generation, and heat plants. The dataset is sourced from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and compiled by the CEOS_EXTRA organization. The last recorded update was in December 2004.
Data from 2004 or earlier, this dataset provides an index for geothermal energy supply, covering production and its use for electricity and heat generation. It is sourced from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and hosted by NASA's Earthdata platform. The dataset uses inferred calculations, estimating geothermal energy input from electricity production based on a standard 10% thermal efficiency.
The Renewable Energy Supply Index - Solar (IEA) dataset covers solar energy production and its use for electricity and heat generation. It includes a measure of actual efficiency, where quantities entering electricity generation are equated to the electrical energy generated, with energy units defined in KTOE (41.868 TJ or 11.630 GWh). The dataset is provided by the CEOS_EXTRA organization and was last updated on December 31, 2004.
Southern Rio Grande Valley in Texas, including parts of Cameron, Hidalgo, and Willacy counties, is the focus of this study. It examines the potential for indoor radon based on uranium concentrations in specific geologic units, using high-resolution airborne gamma-ray data. The dataset was last updated in April 2004 and is associated with the CEOS_EXTRA organization.
2003 data from a respirometer experiment on soil from Macquarie Island's Main Power House, conducted by researchers at the University of Arizona. It contains GC-FID area responses, compound CAS numbers, and total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) estimates for a composite sample from 8 soil cores. The work was part of the ASAC project 1163.
A 2000 USGS digital map compilation includes geology, oil and gas field centerpoints, and geologic provinces for the Arctic region north of 64°N latitude. The data were created for the U.S. Geological Survey's World Energy Project to assess undiscovered, technically recoverable resources. It was originally designed in ESRI's ARC/INFO software and published as part of a series of interim CD-ROM products.
Antarctic magnetic field data recorded at three British Antarctic Survey Automatic Geophysical Observatories (AGOs). The dataset contains search coil magnetometer measurements at 2 samples/sec, primarily used to study Ultra-Low-Frequency (ULF) waves from ~0.001 Hz to 5 Hz. The data was last updated in December 2003.
Measurements of geomagnetic field variations in the ULF frequency band (1 mHz - 1 Hz) are made by a triaxial search-coil magnetometer at Terra Nova Bay, Antarctica. The data set originates from a renewed instrumentation installed during the 2001/2002 and 2002/2003 Antarctic campaigns, providing continuous recording at a 4 Hz sampling rate with GPS timing. The dataset was last updated in November 2003.
Monthly fuel consumption data for ships servicing Australian Antarctic stations and marine science voyages, measured from fuel tank soundings or meters. The dataset is considered obsolete and was last updated in October 2003. It was collected by the Australian Antarctic Division to monitor environmental pressures from ship operations in the Southern Ocean.
Sixteen elements were measured in 32 sediment and 14 soil samples near the Brazilian Antarctic Station. Factor analysis distinguished three sample groups based on trace metal content, organic matter, and metal bioavailability. The study, published by SCIOPS in 2003, investigated natural and anthropogenic controls on sediment chemistry in Admiralty Bay.
A 2003 survey of terrestrial invertebrates across ice-free areas at Cape Hallett, Antarctica, conducted by SCIOPS. The dataset contains identity, abundance, and distribution details for arthropods, collected over three spatial scales including a site-wide survey, an elevational survey, and a 24-meter transect. It likely includes data on mites and springtails (Collembola) from algal flats and scree slopes.
An experiment at Scott Base measured soil response to JP5 jet fuel spills over three years. 105 PVC soil cores were embedded, with 60 receiving fuel application, and samples were destructively analyzed at 10 time points. The experiment was conducted by SCIOPS, with data last updated in 2003.
Ice cores and soil profile samples were collected from Columnar Valley and Pearce Valley to determine the origin of massive ground ice and its potential for paleoclimate data. The collection includes samples from 6 pits in Columnar Valley and 16 pits in Pearce Valley, with three of the latter also cored. The dataset was produced by SCIOPS and last updated in December 2002.
Field experiments at Old Casey Station, Antarctica, investigated in-situ chemical oxidation for remediating petroleum hydrocarbons in soil. The dataset contains raw and processed gas chromatography data, field measurements, and analysis results from trials conducted over the 1999/2000, 2000/01, and 2001/02 Antarctic field seasons. The work was completed as part of the Australian Antarctic Division's ASAC project 1163.
Geophysical survey data from 2002 investigates hydrocarbon contamination in Antarctic soils at Scott Base, Marble Point, Bull Pass, and Lake Vida. The dataset includes electromagnetic and ground-penetrating radar readings taken on a grid to analyze soil electrical structure and seasonal changes. It was collected by SCIOPS to understand contamination's geophysical signature across different sites and years.
Hourly soil temperature data from two distinct soil profiles (wet and dry sites) at Australia's Casey Station in Antarctica. The dataset contains raw and averaged temperature measurements at multiple depths, collected during the summer seasons of 2000/2001 and 2001/2002. Data was gathered by the Australian Antarctic Data Centre as part of project ASAC 1163.
Soil samples were collected from historic Antarctic exploration sites at Cape Evans, Hut Point, and Cape Royds across multiple seasons from 1999 to 2002. The sampling aimed to ascertain the presence, depth, and extent of petroleum hydrocarbon contamination from early explorer fuel depots. The dataset includes mapped oil spill sites and sample weights, such as a 2 kg collection from Cape Evans, and was contributed by the organization SCIOPS.
A 2005 project by the Australian Antarctic Division aimed to study cold-adapted bacteria from Windmill Islands soils for oil degradation. The research planned to identify bacterial species via 16S rRNA analysis and characterize their bioremediation pathways. All samples were lost due to equipment failure, resulting in no collected data.
The Dry Valleys of Antarctica were investigated to determine the origin of high-elevation ground ice. A total of 21 soil pits were dug at three geologically distinct locations—Beacon, Arena, and Pearce Valleys—and samples were analyzed for thin sections and soluble salt chemistry. The dataset was created by SCIOPS and last updated in December 2001.
