Data archive for Earth and environmental science data.

The U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) is a Federal program mandated by Congress to coordinate Federal research and investments in understanding the forces shaping the global environment, both human and natural, and their impacts on society. Access to National Climate Assessment.

NASA provides data from a variety of sources including satellites, airborne campaigns, field campaigns, in situ instruments and model outputs. There are data that span the Earth science disciplines, providing measurements for Earth’s Atmosphere, Ocean, Land, Cryosphere, and Human Interactions with the Environment. In addition, calibrated sensor data are available.

Data sets covering the Atmosphere, Ocean, Land and more. Explore climate indices, reanalyses and satellite data and understand their application to climate model metrics.

Choose from hundreds of scientific data sets, focusing on the cryosphere and its interactions. Data are from satellites and field observations, and are from NASA, NSF, NOAA, and other programs.

Climate Data Online (CDO) provides free access to NCDC's archive of global historical weather and climate data in addition to station history information.

Storm Events Database, Severe Weather Data Inventory, Cyclone best track data and Lightning strike data

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the United Nations body for assessing the science related to climate change.

Time period of coverage ranges from the 1830s through the 1970s with most data from the period prior to 1960. Each series typically includes observations for a number of meteorological and other geophysical parameters.

Met Office Data as well as third party licensed data on behalf of European partners ECMWF, ECOMET and EUMETSAT.
