- Atmospheric Rivers - NASA Earthdata
NASA’s Earth-observing satellites help scientists identify atmospheric rivers, which enables studies of climate change, water management, and weather
- Atmosphere - NASA Earthdata
Earth's atmosphere is a layer of mixed gases approximately 60 miles high that provides the air we breathe, shields us from dangerous levels of ultraviolet light from the sun, and traps enough heat to maintain a livable environment NASA's satellites make atmospheric measurements that scientists use to study its chemistry and air quality, weather, and climate change
- Air Mass Density | NASA Earthdata
Air mass density is a fundamental property of atmosphere Mixture of gases forming Earth's atmosphere, consisting of nitrogen (∼78%), oxygen (∼21%), water vapor, and other trace gases such as carbon dioxide, helium, argon, ozone, or various pollutants The concentration of water vapor is very variab
- Atmospheric Science Data Center | NASA Earthdata
NASA's Atmospheric Science Data Center projects focus on Earth science disciplines including radiation budget, clouds, aerosols, and tropospheric composition
- Atmospheric Temperature - NASA Earthdata
Temperature can vary greatly at different levels of Earth's atmosphere Measuring atmospheric temperatures is essential for many forms of scientific work including weather forecasting and studying climate processes, and for conducting human activities such as flying aircraft, agriculture, and controlling pollution
- Essential Variables | NASA Earthdata
Climate The Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) has identified a set of 54 atmosphere, land, and ocean variables as Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) The atmosphere ECVs cover both surface and upper-air atmosphere as well as atmospheric composition Land ECVs cover the hydrosphere, cryosphere, biosphere, and anthroposphere Ocean ECVs cover physical, biogeochemical, and biological
- New Jupyter Notebook GitHub Repository Offers Tips and Scripts for . . .
NASA’s Atmospheric Science Data Center (ASDC) recently debuted its new GitHub online collaboration and code-sharing page offering tutorials, scripts, and guides for using data from a variety of sources such as the Tropospheric Emissions: Monitoring Pollution (TEMPO) instrument The files available in the ASDC Data and User Services GitHub repository help users in working with ASDC-managed
- Atmospheric Carbon Monoxide - NASA Earthdata
NASA's carbon monoxide data track historical and near real-time levels of this pollutant, enabling studies of air quality and atmosphere composition
