Globsnow
The GlobSnow project aims at creating temporally and spatially extensive snow products with well known accuracy characteristics.
global database of snow parameters for climate research purposes. The main objective is to create a long term dataset on two essential snow parameters. The project will provide information concerning the areal extent of snow (SE) on a global scale and snow water equivalent (SWE) for the Northern Hemisphere. Both products will include the end product derived from the satellite data by Dec 16
SeaSTA for NASA World Wind
for World Wind is a comprehensive collection of high resolution maps of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) from 1982 to the latest available data. Data categories include monthly SST, SST Anomaly (SSTA) and worldwide tropical storms, hurricanes, cyclones and typhoons. also includes climatologies, an assortment of SST properties, sea ice, surface currents and winds, as well as shaded relief maps and vector outlines.
SeaSTA contains high resolution (~4 km) monthly maps of SST from 1982 to the present. Smoothed contours of SST are overlaid and may be independently displayed or hidden. by Dec 16
