The data files contain measurements for 36 meteorological, surface characteristic, and positional variables. The data were collected as part of Operation IceBridge funded campaigns.
Nsidc produces AMSR-E gridded brightness temperature data by interpolating AMSR-E data (6.9 GHz, 10.7 GHz, 18.7 GHz, 23.8 GHz, 36.5 GHz, and 89.0 GHz) to the output grids from swath space using an Inverse Distance Squared (ID2) method. Reproducibility and reusability of research results is an important concern in scientific communication and science policy. A foundational element of reproducibility and reusability is the open and persistently available presentation of… Antarctic Grounding Line Mapping from Differential Satellite Radar Interferometry, Geophyical Research Letters. 38. This data set consists of brightness temperatures acquired from the Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) on board the Nimbus-7 Pathfinder satellite. Ancillary data include time, geolocation, and quality assessment.
This data set contains Greenland and Antarctica gravity measurements taken from the Sander Geophysics AIRGrav airborne gravity system. The data are scaled instrument counts of the following: These data are not suitable for time series, anomalies, or trends analyses. They are meant to provide a best estimate of current ice and snow conditions based on information and algorithms available at the time the data are acquired. OpenSearch interface to a Solr backend.

The US National Snow and Ice Data Center (Nsidc) uses satellite data to provide a daily record of Arctic sea ice cover and the rate of melting compared to an average period and… This Level-1B (L1B) product provides calibrated estimates of time-ordered geolocated brightness temperatures measured by the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) passive microwave radiometer.
The image maps are constructed from Modis imagery acquired during 2005, 2010, and 2015 and provide nearly cloud-free views of all land areas and islands larger than a few hundred meters, including the ice caps on Baffin Island, Devon Island… It is derived from passive microwave satellite brightness temperature characteristics using the Cross-Polarized Gradient Ratio (XPGR) of Abdalati and Steffen (1997). Kim, Y., J. S. Kimball, J. Glassy, and J. Du. 2017. An Extended Global Earth System Data Record on Daily Landscape Freeeze-Thaw Determined from Satellite Passive Microwave Remote Sensing, Earth System Science Data. The data files contain measurements for 36 meteorological, surface characteristic, and positional variables. The data were collected as part of Operation IceBridge funded campaigns. The data were collected by scientists working on the Investigating the Cryospheric Evolution of the Central Antarctic Plate (Icecap) project, which is funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Natural Environment Research… The Likely Basal Thermal State of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) product contains key data sets that show how the likely basal thermal state was inferred from existing airborne and satellite data sets and recent methods, and provides a… This sea ice concentration data set was derived using measurements from the Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) on the Nimbus-7 satellite and from the Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) sensors on the Defense…
This Level-1B (L1B) product provides calibrated estimates of time-ordered geolocated brightness temperatures measured by the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) passive microwave radiometer.
The NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (Nsidc DAAC) is pleased to announce that the Sea Ice Concentrations from Nimbus-7 SMMR and DMSP SSM/I-Ssmis Passive Microwave Data has been updated through 31… It was constructed by combining Aster and SPOT 5 DEMs over the ice sheet periphery and margin with Avhrr photoclinometry for the interior and far north, and calibrating the data to approximate mean Icesat/GLAS elevations from 2003 to 2009. This data set includes 94 GHz co- and cross-polarized radar reflectivity. The Airborne Cloud Radar (ACR) sensor was mounted to a NASA P-3 aircraft flown over the Sea of Japan, the Western Pacific Ocean, and the Japanese Islands. The data were collected by scientists working on the International Collaborative Exploration of the Cryosphere through Airborne Profiling (Icecap) project, which was funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Antarctic Climate and… This data set contains depth sounder measurements of elevation, surface, bottom, and thickness for Greenland and Antarctica taken from the Multichannel Coherent Radar Depth Sounder (Mcords).
