U.S. industrial exports and foreign policy from 1893 to 1921. The work by William H. Becker analyzes the interplay between business interests and government actions in Congress and the Departments of Commerce and State. It was authored by Ida M. Tarbell.
Robert Jervis argues that the possibility of nuclear war has created a revolution in military strategy and international relations. The work examines how the potential for nuclear Armageddon has changed the meaning of war, the psychology of statesmanship, and the formulation of military policy by the superpowers. It is published by Harvard University Press.
ATLAS/ICESat-2 L1B Converted Telemetry Data V007 provides time-ordered system-level telemetry from the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System on the ICESat-2 satellite. The data are produced by the NSIDC_CPRD organization for quality control analysis and as source data for higher-level products. The dataset supports the Precision Orbit Determination and Precision Pointing Determination computations.
Joachim Wallisch produced this engineering dataset of summarized CFD simulation results for UAV electrothermal wing de-icing in 2026. It quantifies the heating time and energy consumption required to reach an 83% ice-interface melt threshold across various heat flux configurations.
ASTER L2 Surface Kinetic Temperature V004 provides surface kinetic temperature data derived from five Thermal Infrared bands. The product is generated by NASA's LPCLOUD using the Temperature/Emissivity Separation algorithm on ASTER radiance data, with acquisitions ending on January 16, 2026. Version 4 integrates MERRA-2 data for improved atmospheric correction.
December 1992 data from a severe clear air turbulence incident involving a DC-8 cargo plane departing Denver. NCAR and NOAA researchers developed a very high-resolution numerical model using NOAA weather data to study the event, which revealed pronounced Horizontally-aligned Vortex Tubes (HVT). The dataset originates from the SCIOPS organization and is hosted on NASA EarthData.
McMurdo Sound, Antarctica, is the location for this dataset of temperature-depth profiles measured through developing sea ice during winter months. The data, recorded hourly and retrieved biweekly, was collected by SCIOPS to calculate thermal conductivity and diffusivity, excluding solar radiation effects. The measurements can be used to determine the rate of ice growth and reconstruct the formation history of the sea ice.
64 flights in December 1998 and January 1999 collected surface elevation and ice thickness data for the Ford Ranges, Sulzberger Ice Shelf, Edward VII Peninsula, and Shirase Coast region. The investigators used radar sounding and laser altimetry from a Twin Otter aircraft flying at least 300 m above the surface. This research was funded by the National Science Foundation under contract NSF OPP 9615281.
Cosmic noise measurements at 38.2 MHz were recorded by a solid-state riometer and dual dipole antenna at the Italian Antarctic Base in Terra Nova Bay. The data are intended for studying ionospheric absorption in the lower ionosphere and the physical-chemical mechanisms in the D region. The dataset was last updated in February 1994 and originates from the SCIOPS organization.
Oxygen microelectrode measurements detail the photosynthetic rates of Antarctic fast ice algal mats near Davis station. The dataset includes productivity metrics, photosynthetic capacity (P_max), and key irradiance parameters like saturation onset (E_k) and compensation point (E_c). Data was collected by the Australian Antarctic Data Centre and last updated in December 1995.
Tree ring data from Sant Maurici, Spain, provides a 185-year annual climate record from 139 to -46 calendar years before present. The dataset is archived by NOAA's World Data Service for Paleoclimatology. It was published in 1996 as part of the International Tree-Ring Data Bank.
Gridded upper tropospheric temperature data derived from Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) satellite instruments. The dataset applies the Spencer and Christy (1990) algorithm with a LIMB93 limb correction based on latitude, longitude, month, and scan angle. The data was produced by the GES DISC organization and last updated in December 1994.
MSULTT provides gridded lower tropospheric temperatures derived from Microwave Sounding Unit instruments. The algorithm combines MSU channels 2 and 3 with a limb correction based on latitude, longitude, month, and scan angle. The dataset is maintained by NASA's GES DISC and its last update is recorded as 1994.
Antarctic and New Zealand fish species provide measurements of blood and plasma viscosity. Data includes comparisons between active and sedentary species and examines viscosity across temperatures from -2°C to +15°C and shear rates from 2.3/s to 450/s. The dataset was created by SCIOPS and last updated in December 1988.
In situ measurements characterize optical properties of first-year sea ice across 13 wavelength bands from 400nm to 1100nm. SCIOPS researchers collected data on scattering length, attenuation length, salinity, temperature profiles, and ice structure at Tent Island, McMurdo Sound. Measurements were repeated at various sites over two seasons, including periods of increasing atmospheric temperature, with the dataset last updated in November 1986.
1990s ice surface elevation and thickness data cover a portion of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet in the Southeastern Ross Embayment. The data were derived from laser altimetry and radar sounding results collected during the CASERTZ aerogeophysical experiments. These surveys were conducted to understand geological controls on ice streams and assess ice sheet stability.
Radium-226 activity measurements from sediment cores in Florida Bay, used for geochronological dating. The dataset includes core number, depth, activity, and measurement error, collected by the CEOS_EXTRA organization. Data was last updated in June 1997.
1566 observation points document the marine environment across the Sea of Japan, Sea of Okhotsk, and Pacific Ocean economic zones of Hokkaido. These observations were conducted from April 1986 to March 1987 by the organization SCIOPS. The findings were compiled into the 1989 edition of the Data Record of Oceanographic Observations No.2.
Backscatter and depolarization ratio data were collected in-situ by a M55 Geophysica aircraft during the 1999 APE-GAIA Antarctic campaign. The dataset captures optical properties of the stratospheric airmass using 532 nm backscattersonde instruments. Organization SCIOPS conducted the flights from Ushuaia, Argentina, toward the South Pole in September-October 1999.
1998 data from the Transantarctic Mountain Aerogeophysical Research Activities (TAMARA) program, documenting the regional structural architecture of the Transantarctic Mountains. The dataset contains aeromagnetic measurements centered over the Skelton Neve region, collected by the CEOS_EXTRA organization to study rift-flank uplift processes.
