The team identified the anomaly to the power supply for the radar's high-power amplifier. [10] [11] On 2 September 2015, NASA announced that the amplifier failure meant that the radar could no longer return data. The science mission continues with data being returned only by the radiometer instrument. [12] SMAP's prime mission ended in June 2018.
Giovanni is a Web interface that allows users to analyze NASA's gridded data from various satellite and surface observations. Giovanni lets researchers examine data on atmospheric chemistry, atmospheric temperature, water vapor and clouds, atmospheric aerosols, precipitation, and ocean chlorophyll and surface temperature. The primary data ...
Precipitation data is made available in a variety of formats, spatial and temporal resolutions, and processing levels which are accessible on the Precipitation Measurement Missions "Data Access" webpage. [8] Several data visualization and analysis tools have been made available to provide easy access for the science and applications communities ...
In the lead-up to Earth Day, which falls on April 22, NASA officials in Washington on Friday documented how climate change is affecting the planet, this time using data from a program that watches ...
The Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) programme launched its first satellite, Meteosat-12, in 2022, and featured a number of changes over its predecessors in support of its mission to gather data for weather forecasting and climate monitoring. The MTG satellites are three-axis stabilised rather than spin stabilised, giving greater flexibility in ...
JPSS will provide the global environmental data used in numerical weather prediction models for forecasts, and scientific data used for climate monitoring. JPSS will aid in fulfilling the mission of the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) , an agency of the Department of Commerce .
May 4 is National Weather Observers Day, a day dedicated to learning about weather phenomena, meteorological instruments and why climate change matters.
AIRS measurements form a "fingerprint" of the state of the atmosphere for a given time and place that can be used as a climate data record for future generations. They have become important tools for understanding current climate and increasing the ability to predict the future. AIRS maps the distribution of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
