British Atmospheric Data Centre (BADC)
The Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) designated data centre for the Atmospheric Sciences in the United Kingdom.
Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC)
Global-change data and information analysis for the US Department of Energy (DOE). Compiles and maintains extensive international data sets on atmospheric chemistry, particularly atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane & other radiatively active gases.
EOS-WEBSTER
http://eos-webster.sr.unh.edu/
Digital library of free, customized earth science data from The University of New Hampshire. Data can be FTPd or mailed on a customized CD.
EROS Data Center
EROS Data Center is home to the U.S. National Satellite Land Remote Sensing Data Archive. Also the distributed active archive center, or DAAC, for land processes on behalf of NASA's Mission to Planet Earth.
Goddard Earth Sciences (GES) Data and Information Services Center (DISC) Distributed Active Archive
Provides data, data related services, and data support for global environmental change research and education. Funded through NASA's Earth Observing System (EOS) as a source of information about the upper atmosphere, atmospheric dynamics, and the global biosphere.
High-resolution Shoreline Database
http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/shorelines/gshhs.html
Information on digital coastline and shorelines data available from various sources. Provided by the NOAA National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) Marine Geology and Geophysics Division and collocated World Data Center A for Marine Geology and Geophysics.
NASA's Distributed Active Archive Centers
http://nasadaacs.eos.nasa.gov/
Processes, archivees, documents, and distributes Earth science and socioeconomic data.
NSF Geosciences Unidata Integrated Earth Information Server (IEIS)
Information that arrives via the experimental nation-wide Unidata Internet Data Distribution (IDD) network, which automatically delivers real-time environmental observations from observing systems around the globe.
NSSDC OMNIWeb
http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/omniweb/ow.html
Data retrieval and analysis interface to NSSDC's OMNI data which consist of 1-hour-resolution "near-Earth" solar wind magnetic field and plasma data, energetic proton fluxes (1-60 MeV), and geomagnetic and solar activity indices. It allows you to select a subset from the available OMNI data to view or retrieve.
ORNL/NASA Biogeochemical Dynamics Distributed Active Archive Center (DAAC)
Source for biogeochemical and ecological data for use in studying environmental processes. Data were collected on the ground, from aircraft, and by satellite, or generated by computer models.
