- 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
- Atmospheric Rivers - NASA Earthdata
NASA’s Earth-observing satellites help scientists identify atmospheric rivers, which enables studies of climate change, water management, and weather
- 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
- 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
- AIRS Near Real-Time Data - NASA Earthdata
Launched in 2002, the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) instrument aboard NASA’s Aqua satellite provides 3D measurements of temperature, water vapor, trace gases, and surface and cloud properties through the atmospheric column Near real-time (NRT) AIRS data are available through NASA's Land, Atmosphere Near real-time Capability for Earth observation (LANCE) generally within 75 to 140
- Atmospheric Winds - NASA Earthdata
NASA’s atmospheric wind data provide measurements to profile the force of air moving over land, water, and high into the sky
- 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
- Building on Records of Atmospheric Composition - Earthdata
Tropospheric soundings from Earth observing satellite instruments provide critical information about atmospheric composition and its impact on human health and climate TROPESS uses these sounding data to generate Earth System Data Records (ESDRs) of ozone and other atmospheric constituents by processing data from multiple satellites through a common retrieval algorithm and ground data system
