- Surface Winds - NASA Earthdata
Surface winds refer to the wind speed and direction measured from the surface of Earth’s land or ocean By studying these winds, scientists can learn more about ocean processes and improve predictions of extreme weather NASA’s available data products useful to the study of surface winds include average wind speed and direction, sea level pressure, and surface stress
- Atmospheric Winds - NASA Earthdata
NASA’s atmospheric wind data provide measurements to profile the force of air moving over land, water, and high into the sky
- Monsoons - NASA Earthdata
Monsoons data from NASA provides global insight into the formation and behavior of these seasonal wind and rain phenomena
- Cross-Calibrated, Multi-Platform (CCMP) Ocean Surface Wind . . . - Earthdata
The Cross-Calibrated Mul7-PlaXorm (CCMP) Ocean vector wind analysis is a level-4 product that uses a varia7onal method to combine satellite retrievals of ocean winds with a background wind field from a numerical weather predicon (NWP) model The result is a spaally complete esmate of global ocean vector winds on six-hour intervals that are closely ed to satellite measurements For CCMP 3 1
- The Power of a Brazilian Wind - NASA Earthdata
People often picture wind turbines rooted in waving fields of golden grass, but wind turbines can also stand among the waves of coastal waters Offshore wind offers more than just clean and economical energy; winds over the ocean can often be faster and fluctuate less than land-based winds, leading to higher and more sustained output Offshore wind sites tend to be naturally close to the large
- Lake Effect Snow - NASA Earthdata
Lake effect snow data collected by NASA are integral for efforts to understand patterns of snowfall accumulation, among other investigations
- High-Altitude Imaging Wind and Rain Airborne Profiler - Earthdata
The High-Altitude Wind and Rain Airborne Profiler (HIWRAP) instrument is a Doppler radar designed to measure tropospheric winds through deriving Doppler profiles from cloud and precipitation volume backscatter (Li et al 2016) The winds are generated by combining conical scan mode measurements at two different frequency bands (Ka- and Ku-band) and two different incidence angles (30 and 40
- Physical Oceanography DAAC | NASA Earthdata
Measurements include gravity, ocean winds, sea surface temperature, ocean surface topography, sea surface salinity, surface water, and circulation The data support a wide range of applications including climate research, weather prediction, resource management, policy, and the stewardship of ocean data and water resources data
