Borehole Optical Stratigraphy Modeling data set contains scripts and code for simulating photon transport and generating ray-traced video frames of polar ice sheet boreholes. The project was conducted by AMD_USAPDC between February 2005 and April 2010. It includes Perl scripts, C code, and instructions for running Monte Carlo and POV-Ray simulations.
Optical satellite imagery from the CBERS-2B satellite's Wide Field Imager (WFI) camera. The data provides a synoptic view with a 260-meter spatial resolution and an 890-kilometer ground swath, enabling complete Earth surface coverage approximately every 5 days. The dataset is provided by CEOS_EXTRA and was last updated in March 2010.
January 2010 vertical temperature profiles collected from the research vessel Italica during a cruise between New Zealand and the Ross Sea. The data consists of quality-controlled temperature profiles from Sippican T7 Expendable Bathythermograph (XBT) probes, with a vertical resolution of 65 cm and a maximum nominal depth of 760 m. It was gathered as part of the CLIMA phase IV project of the Italian National Antarctic Research Programme (PNRA).
NOAA's Climate Data Record provides daily and monthly aerosol optical thickness measurements over global oceans from 1981 to 2009. The dataset is derived from AVHRR satellite channel 1 clear-sky radiance data at 8-km spatial and daily temporal resolution. Version 2.0, now superseded, features improved cloud screening and processing but is intended primarily for reproducing prior studies.
A ground-based laser scan of buried ice deposits in the Garwood Valley, part of the McMurdo Dry Valleys in Antarctica. The dataset was collected by SCIOPS on January 27, 2010. It provides a detailed 3D point cloud model of the terrain and subsurface ice features.
Country-level aggregates estimate total, urban, and rural populations and land area within six buffer distances from nuclear power plants. Estimates were produced by NASA's ESDIS using global plant location data and population grids for 1990, 2000, and 2010. The analysis applied buffer zones of 30km, 75km, 150km, 300km, 600km, and 1200km to a global dataset.
Antarctic ice shelf grounding zone locations derived from laser altimeter data collected by the ICESat satellite between October 2003 and October 2009. The dataset provides estimates of key flexure points based on repeat-track analysis. It was produced by the AMD/USAPDC organization.
2008 and 2009 winter-spring periods are covered by this dataset of coastal landfast sea ice distribution near the Cape Darnley Polynya in East Antarctica. It was derived from Envisat Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) images using a modified IMCORR algorithm to identify stationary ice. The data is provided by the AU_AADC organization and was last updated in November 2009.
Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) data from 2009 provides quantitative measurements of global ocean bio-optical properties. The dataset likely contains satellite-derived observations focused on the Antarctic, Arctic, and Korea Peninsula regions. It was collected by the AMD_KOPRI organization and published via NASA's Earthdata platform.
1979 to present data provides twice daily global observations from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR). This dataset extends the HURSAT collection for applying the Objective Dvorak technique, with data gridded around tropical cyclone centers. It is provided by NOAA_NCEI and includes hurricanes from all tropical cyclone-prone basins.
A 100-meter resolution Digital Elevation Model (DEM) details the surface topography of the Antarctic Peninsula. The dataset is derived from ASTER GDEM data and was provided by the AMD_USAPDC organization. The last recorded update was in December 2009.
LVIS instrument data captures detailed three-dimensional forest canopy structure over parts of New England and Canada. The dataset was collected by the SCIOPS organization and last updated in 2009. It provides airborne lidar measurements for ecological and geophysical analysis.
Laser Vegetation Imaging Sensor (LVIS) imagery captures the Crane Glacier Region in Antarctica. The data set was provided by the SCIOPS organization and was last updated in 2009. It contains airborne lidar measurements for analyzing surface topography.
Laser Vegetation Imaging Sensor (LVIS) imagery captures surface elevation data over Greenland. The dataset was collected by NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) and managed by the SCIOPS organization, with a final update in December 2009. It provides high-resolution altimetry measurements for cryospheric studies.
LVIS imagery over Antarctica was collected by the SCIOPS organization. The dataset was last updated in December 2009. It contains laser altimetry data for studying surface topography and ice sheet dynamics.
Dome A, Antarctica hosts optical sky brightness spectra collected by the Nigel spectrometer during the 2009 Austral winter. The dataset contains 55,182 observations across three fixed sky directions, measuring wavelengths from approximately 300 to 850 nm. It was produced by the PLATO instrument suite and archived by the Australian Antarctic Data Centre.
Neutral winds and temperature data were collected in the Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere region at King Sejong Station, Antarctica. The dataset provides measurements from altitudes of approximately 70 to 110 kilometers. AMD_KOPRI produced this data for long-term monitoring, with a last recorded update in November 2009.
Lidar measurements of thin cloud and aerosol optical depths collected by the GLAS instrument on the ICESat satellite. The data is provided by the NSIDC CPRD organization and was last updated in October 2009. Each granule contains optical depth values for atmospheric features that do not completely attenuate the lidar signal.
2003 to 2009 data from the GLAS instrument on the ICESat satellite, containing precise laser pointing information. It includes two orbits of attitude data from spacecraft and instrument star trackers, gyros, and the laser reference system. The dataset was produced by the NSIDC_CPRD organization and last updated in October 2009.
Eight moorings collected physical, biological, and optical oceanographic data in the Bering Strait from August 2007 to September 2009. The dataset includes measurements from instruments like ADCPs, Temperature Salinity Pressure recorders, and acoustic current meters. Data were collected by the University of Washington Applied Physics Laboratory for the Russian-American Long-term Census of the Arctic (RUSALCA) project.
