- 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
- Humidity | NASA Earthdata
Humidity is a measure of water vapor in the atmosphere There are measures of absolute humidity, which is the grams of water vapor present per cubic meter of air Specific humidity is the grams of water per kilogram of air Then there’s the one people are most familiar with, relative humidity, which is the percentage of water vapor present in the air relative to the maximum it could hold at
- Atmospheric Rivers - NASA Earthdata
NASA’s Earth-observing satellites help scientists identify atmospheric rivers, which enables studies of climate change, water management, and weather
- Level-1 and Atmosphere Archive and Distribution System Distributed . . .
NASA's Level-1 and Atmosphere Archive and Distribution System Distributed Active Archive Center primarily provides access to global science data products from MODIS and VIIRS
- VIIRS-Atmosphere Near Real-Time Data - NASA Earthdata
Near real-time atmosphere data from the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) are available through NASA's Land, Atmosphere Near real-time Capability for Earth observation (LANCE)
- Applying AI to MODIS Data Analysis | NASA Earthdata
Researchers taught the SatVision Top-of-Atmosphere foundation model to recognize MODIS imagery features
- Sun-Earth Interactions - NASA Earthdata
NASA collects data on the Sun and its energy to understand how our closest star impacts Earth's energy fields, atmosphere, weather, and human activity
- Clouds | NASA Earthdata
Clouds are made of water and or ice, come in more than a dozen types, and range in altitude from ground level to 280,000 feet high in Earth’s atmosphere They water our lands, are part of the fury of hurricanes, both warm and cool the planet, and at times, interfere with completing important observations or tasks
