Description:
The World Ocean Database (WOD) has global ocean observed and standard depth data profiles. The World Ocean Atlas (WOA) has objectively analyzed climatological mean fields on both a quarter-degree and on a one-degree longitude by latitude grids. The gridded analyses are for annual, seasonal, and monthly means of six oceanographic variables: temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, nitrate, phosphate, and silicate on standard levels (typically at 102 depths, dependent on data availability). …
Dataset ID: d285000
Description:
A global dataset of meteorological forcings has been developed that can be used to drive models of land surface hydrology. The dataset is constructed by combining a suite of global observation-based datasets with the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis. Known biases in the reanalysis precipitation and near-surface meteorology have been shown to exert an erroneous effect on modeled land surface water and energy budgets and are thus corrected using observation-based datasets of precipitation, air temperature an…
Dataset ID: d314000
Description:
This dataset contains the bias-corrected CPC MORPHing technique (CMORPH) global precipitation analyses, version 1, and is obtained from the NOAA Climate Data Record. The following description is from the NOAA Climate Data Record CMORPH dataset page: This data set is for the bias-corrected, reprocessed CPC Morphing technique (CMORPH) high-resolution global satellite precipitation estimates. The CMORPH satellite precipitation estimates are cre…
Dataset ID: d502002
Description:
For RDA ERA5 monthly mean data prior to 1979, please see ds633.5: ERA5 monthly mean back extension 1950-1978 (Preliminary version) After many years of research and technical preparation, the production of a new ECMWF climate reanalysis to replace ERA-Interim is in progress. ERA5 is the fifth generation of ECMWF atmospheric reanalyses of the global climate, which started with the FGGE reanalyses produced in the 1980s, followed by ERA-15, ERA-40 and most recently ERA-Interim. ERA5 w…
Dataset ID: d633001
Description:
The GPCP Daily analysis is a companion to the GPCP Monthly analysis, and provides globally complete precipitation estimates at a spatial resolution of one degree latitude-longitude and daily time scale from October 1996 to the present. The data set is part of World Climate Research Program (WCRP) and GEWEX activities, being part of the array of data sets describing the water and energy cycles of the planet under the auspices of the GEWEX Data and Assessment Panel (GDAP).
Dataset ID: d728007
Description:
Hydroclimate and terrestrial hydrology greatly influence the local communities, ecosystems, and economies across Alaska and Yukon River Basin. Therefore, we utilized the Regional Arctic Systems Model (RASM) to model the coupled land-atmosphere, and generated a climate and hydrology dataset at 4-km grid spacing to improve our understanding of the regional hydroclimate and terrestrial hydrology. Our model domain encompasses all of the U.S. State of Alaska, the entire Yukon River Basin, part of We…
Dataset ID: d614000
Description:
The Fire INventory from NCAR (FINN) provides daily global fire emissions at high spatial resolution. The FINN model uses satellite detection of active fires (thermal anomalies) and the land cover type to determine the emission estimates. The emission estimates are based on two uses of satellite observations: (1) MODIS fire detection, (2) Both MODIS and VIIRS (Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite) active fire detection. Global daily emission estimates of key gases and aeros…
Dataset ID: d312009
Description:
This dataset contains Version 3.2 of The Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) Daily Precipitation Data Set (GPCPDAY). The variables included are precipitation and probability of liquid phase. As the follow-on to the GPCP Version 2.3 Monthly product and the Version 1.3 One Degree Daily product, GPCP Version 3 (GPCP V3.2) seeks to continue the long, homogeneous precipitation record using modern merging techniques and input data sets. The GPCP V3 suite currently cons…
Dataset ID: d728009
Description:
Two new high resolution sea surface temperature (SST) analysis products have been developed by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) using optimum interpolation (OI). The analyses have a spatial grid resolution of 0.25 degrees and temporal resolution of 1 day. One product uses Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) infrared satellite SST data. The other uses AVHRR and Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR) on the NASA Earth Observing System satellite SST da…
Dataset ID: d277007
Description:
The International Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere Data Set (ICOADS) is a global ocean marine meteorological and surface ocean dataset. It is formed by merging many national and international data sources that contain measurements and visual observations from ships (merchant, navy, research), moored and drifting buoys, coastal stations, and other marine and near-surface ocean platforms. Each marine report contains individual observations of meteorological and oceanographic variables, such as…

Keywords (1626)
Keywords are high-level groupings of parameters describing a topic or subtopic - e.g. Atmosphere (topic), Clouds (subtopic of Atmosphere).
Variable (1626)
A variable or parameter is the quantity that is measured, derived, or computed - e.g. the data value.
Platform (1626)
The platform is the entity or type of entity that acquired or computed the data (e.g. aircraft, land station, reanalysis model).
Spatial Resolution (376)
This refers to the horizontal distance between discrete gridpoints of a model product, reporting stations in a network, measurements of a moving platform, etc.
Time Resolution (243)
