NASA's Aura satellite provides vertical profile estimates of nitric acid (HNO3) in the atmosphere, along with associated error matrices and retrieval diagnostics. The data includes retrieved surface temperature, cloud optical depth, column estimates, quality flags, averaging kernels, and a priori constraints. This Level 2 product was created by the LARC_CLOUD organization and last updated in April 2005.
35,000 line-kilometers of airborne laser altimetry data sampled at 20-meter intervals track the surface of Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica. Collected by the AMD/USAPDC, this dataset provides a high-precision temporal reference from 2005 for monitoring ice stream evolution and constructing Digital Elevation Models. The primary data subset achieves an internal error of ±8 cm, with a full dataset error of ±20 cm.
Spatial aggregates of MODIS/Terra satellite thermal anomaly and fire detection data for the Amazon Basin region. The University of New Hampshire's EOS-WEBSTER system created this product by aggregating and reprojecting the standard MOD14A1 daily L3 global 1km tiles. Data covers a two-year period from January 1, 2003, to January 1, 2005.
Aerosol optical depth and particle type data are collected by the NASA MISR instrument over the RICO region. The dataset originates from nine cameras measuring radiance in four spectral bands at multiple view angles. The subset was produced by LARC_CLOUD and last updated in February 2005.
Laser Vegetation Imaging Sensor (LVIS) waveform data provides images of sub-canopy topography, canopy height, and vertical structure. The dataset captures selected areas of Costa Rica, including Braulio Carillo National Park and La Selva Station, from a 2005 airborne survey. It was collected by NASA's LVIS system, which has been operational since 1997.
Measurements of biological, biogeochemical, and bio-optical properties were collected along an ~8000 km transect in the South East Pacific during the austral summer. The dataset includes data from 21 short stations and 6 long stations, covering eutrophic, mesotrophic, and oligotrophic regimes. The BIOSOPE project, organized by SCIOPS, conducted the cruise from October 21 to December 12, 2004.
Measurements from 2005 capture aerosol optical properties in the Southern Ocean, collected by the SCIOPS organization. Data includes aerosol size distribution, scattering coefficient, and absorption coefficient. Instruments used were an optical particle counter, integrating nephelometer, and particle soot/absorption photometer.
2002-2005 observations of ultra-low frequency (ULF) waves in the 1 mHz to 3 Hz band were recorded at Antarctic stations Davis, Casey, Mawson, Macquarie Island, and Zhongshan. The data were collected by the Australian Antarctic Division's Space and Atmospherics Sciences section using search coil magnetometers. This project, ASAC_606, aimed to study magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling and polar cap dynamics.
2004/2005 Austral summer measurements of spectral radiation, absorption coefficients, volume scattering function, chlorophyll a concentration, phytoplankton pigments concentration (HPLC), and transparency in the Southern Ocean. The data were collected during the cruise of TR/V Umitaka-Maru. Seawater samples were obtained from several depths using a Niskin bottle on a CTD system.
L-31N Lithological and Geophysical Data provides hydrogeologic characterization of the Surficial aquifer underlying the L-31N Levee in Miami-Dade County, Florida. The dataset was created by the USGS, South Florida Water Management District, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers through on-site core description and downhole geophysical logging of boreholes. Data acquisition was completed by December 31, 2004.
Four coreholes and two monitor well clusters were drilled along the L-31N Levee in Miami-Dade County, Florida, to characterize the Surficial aquifer. The United States Geological Survey, South Florida Water Management District, and United States Army Corps of Engineers collaborated on this data acquisition project, which concluded in 2004. Downhole logging included gamma ray, fluid conductivity, temperature, EM-induction, caliper, sonic, flow meter, and optical video tools.
NASA Earthdata hosts aerosol optical thickness measurements collected with a sunphotometer. The data was gathered by the SCIOPS organization under clear sky conditions and was last updated in January 2005.
A Google Earth overlay file marks the center points of all publicly released data from the Laser Vegetation Imaging Sensor (LVIS) instrument. The overlay, created by the LVIS team, provides interactive links to GMT-generated imagery and raw data files. This resource was published by NASA/GSFC/LVIS and summarized by SCIOPS, with a last updated date recorded as 2005-01-01.
2004 data from the Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) satellite mission. The dataset provides quantitative measurements of global ocean bio-optical properties. It was collected by the AMD_KOPRI organization.
SCIOPS collected cloacal swabs and plasma samples from Adelie and Emperor penguins across multiple Antarctic sites during the 2003-2004 and 2004-2005 seasons. The dataset covers 270 birds, with cultures for human and avian bacteria and tests for viral disease antibodies. Data was last updated in December 2004.
Juvenile salmon distribution data from the Gulf of Alaska examines biological and physical influencing factors. Data were collected from four research cruises (GP0108, GP0207, GP0401, MF0310) between 2001 and 2004 by organization SCIOPS. It includes analyses of CTD, ADCP, stomach contents, otolith thermal marks, and Genetic Stock Identification.
SCIOPS collected data on salmon otolith thermal marks and genetic stock identification in the Gulf of Alaska from 2001 to 2004. The dataset includes analyses from four research cruises (GP0108, GP0207, GP0401, MF0310) and examines factors affecting juvenile salmon distribution. Data collection involved CTD, ADCP, and stomach content analyses of trawled salmon.
SCIOPS collected blood and faecal samples from 96 emperor penguins at Cape Washington and 29 Adelie penguins at Mandible Cirque in Antarctica. Plasma corticosterone concentrations and antibodies against diseases will be measured, and faecal samples will be cultured for bacteria. The data was last updated in December 2004.
KOMPSAT-1's Electro-Optical Camera captured this single collection of orthorectified panchromatic imagery over 50 European cities. The European Space Agency (ESA) provides the data in GeoTIFF format with a 6.6-meter ground sample distance. The dataset's last recorded update was in August 2004.
Chemical analyses of Macquarie Island basaltic glasses and melt inclusions quantify volatile and metallic elements. The dataset likely contains major and trace element concentrations in weight percent and ppm, as well as radiogenic isotope ratios. Data were collected from Macquarie Island samples and analyzed using electron microprobes, FTIR spectroscopy, LA-ICP-MS, SIMS, and multicollector mass spectrometry.
