We extended the Terra and Aqua MODIS aerosol properties data sets containing parameters such as concentration of aerosol optical depth derived with the deep blue and/or dark target approaches. These global level-3 data sets are extracted from MOD08_D3 and MYD08_D3 data sets and come with 1 degree x 1 degree grid resolution and daily temporal resolution. All these data sets cover the period March 2000 through June 2024 (TERRA) and July 2002 through June 2024 (AQUA). For further information we refer to the respective web page

Extension of GlobSnow Snow Water Equivalent

The (kind of) extended the GlobSnow v3.0 Snow Water Equivalent (SWE) product by adding the near-real-time (NRT) product for years 2018 through 2024. The NRT product comes with the same spatial resolution as the SWE CDR. The time period covered is 2018-01-01 through 2024-07-31 - provided that the...

Upgrade of OSCAR ocean surface current

We upgraded the OSCAR ocean surface current data set to version V2.0. Data are now available at daily temporal resolution on a 0.25 grid resolution global grid for the time period 1993-01-01 through 2024-12-04. For more information see:
