Global Rates of Subaerial Volcanism on Earth

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Knowledge of the global rates of volcanism is fundamental for modeling the Earth, as those rates closely relate to plate tectonics, crustal growth, mantle dynamics, atmospheric evolution, climate change, and virtually any aspect of the global Earth ...

The AVHRR Polar Pathfinder Climate Data Records

Remote Sensing, 2016
With recent, dramatic changes in Arctic sea ice and the Antarctic ice sheets, the importance of monitoring the climate of the polar regions has never been greater. While many individual global satellite products exist, the AVHRR Polar Pathfinder products

Long-Term Arctic Snow/Ice Interface Temperature from Special Sensor for Microwave Imager Measurements

Remote Sensing, 2018
The Arctic sea ice region is the most visible area experiencing global warming-induced climate change. However, long-term measurements of climate-related variables have been limited to a small number of variables such as the sea ice concentration, extent,

Towards a long-term global aerosol optical depth record: applying a consistent aerosol retrieval algorithm to MODIS and VIIRS-observed reflectance [PDF]

Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2015
To answer fundamental questions about aerosols in our changing climate, we must quantify both the current state of aerosols and how they are changing.

The Iso2k database: a global compilation of paleo-δ¹⁸O and δ²H records to aid understanding of Common Era climate [PDF]

Earth System Science Data, 2020
Reconstructions of global hydroclimate during the Common Era (CE; the past ∼2000 years) are important for providing context for current and future global environmental change.

Climate Data Records from Meteosat First Generation Part II: Retrieval of the In-Flight Visible Spectral Response

Remote Sensing, 2019
How can the in-flight spectral response functions of a series of decades-old broad band radiometers in Space be retrieved post-flight? This question is the key to developing Climate Data Records from the Meteosat Visible and Infrared Imager on board the ...

Evaluating marine dust records as templates for optical dating of Oldest Ice [PDF]

Climate of the Past
The continuous ice core record extends 800 000 years into the past, covering the period of 100 000-year glacial cycles but not the transition from 40 000-year glacial cycles (the mid-Pleistocene transition, 1.2–0.7 million years ago).

Alluvial record of an early Eocene hyperthermal within the Castissent Formation, the Pyrenees, Spain [PDF]

Climate of the Past, 2020
The late Palaeocene to the middle Eocene (57.5 to 46.5 Ma) recorded a total of 39 hyperthermals – periods of rapid global warming documented by prominent negative carbon isotope excursions (CIEs) as well as peaks in iron content – have been ...
