The International Satellite Land Surface Climatology Project, Initiative II (ISLSCP II) was a follow on project from The International Satellite Land Surface Climatology Project (ISLSCP). ISLSCP II had the lead role in addressing land-atmosphere interactions - process modelling, data retrieval algorithms, field experiment design and execution, and the development of global data sets. The ISLSCP II dataset contains comprehensive data over the 10 year period from 1986 to 1995, from the International Satellite Land Surface Climatology Project (ISLSCP). The dataset contains: *River Discharge *Precipitation *Global Elevation *Soils *Root storage The data are mapped to consistent grids (0.5 x 0.5 degrees for topography, 1 x 1 degrees for meteorological parameters). Some data have a grid size of 0.25 x 0.25 degrees. The temporal resolution for most data sets is monthly (however a few are at finer resolution - 3 hourly). This dataset is public.

This dataset provides Gravimetric Mass Balance Basin data for the Antarctic Ice Sheet. It has been produced in the framework of the Antarctic Ice Sheets Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project, under the lead of TU Dresden. The ice sheet mass balance, i.e. the change in ice mass over time, is determined using the US-German satellite gravimetry mission GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment). The Antarctic Ice Sheet CCI GMB products are based on the monthly GRACE solutions ITSG-Grace2016 by Technische Universität Graz, and comprises a time series of mass change grids covering the entire ice sheet (GMB Gridded product), along side mass change time series for different drainage basins (GMB Basin Product). The dataset described here covers version 1.1 of the Basin product. Mass change time series are provided for a number of drainage basins. They describe the evolution of ice mass relative to a modelled reference value, defined to be the GRACE-derived mass as of 2009-01-01. Respective time series are also derived for the total areas of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, the East Antarctic Ice Sheet, the Antarctic Peninsula and the Antarctic Ice Sheet as a whole.

The Fourier-Adjusted, Sensor and Solar zenith angle corrected, Interpolated, Reconstructed (FASIR) adjusted Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) dataset was detected with the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) on-board the MetOp satellites. Derived biophysical parameter fields were generated to provide a 17-year satellite record of monthly changes in the photosynthetic activity of terrestrial vegetation. This dataset was produced and provided by Dr. Sietse Los from the Department of Geography, University of Wales at Swansea.

Infrared radiances from the Limb Infrared Monitor of the Stratosphere (LIMS) instrument, mounted on the Nimbus-7 satellite, were stored on a Radiance Archive Tape (RAT). RAT data was used to derive a series of products, two of which are held here. Firstly, the LIMS Inverted Profile Archival Tape (LAIPAT). This dataset contains mixing ratios of methane and nitrogen dioxide.

This dataset contains standard meteorological data and soil moisture estimates from cosmic-ray neutron sensors taken from Sheepdrove Farm stations (2015-2018). This data was collected as part of the NERC project A MUlti-scale Soil moisture-Evapotranspiration Dynamics study (AMUSED), which aimed to identify the spatial/temporal scale-dependency of key dominant processes that control changes in soil moisture and land-atmosphere interactions.

The Met Office WOW V1 dataset contains observations from all Public Weather Stations (PWS) contributing to WOW (Weather Observations Website) within Europe. The dataset is for a single year (2020), made available for use within the EUMETNET Sandbox project. EUMETNET (a grouping of 31 European National Meteorological Services) instigated the EUMETNET Sandbox project to bring novel observations and observations from technology trials and field campaigns to the research community to enable R&D activities. The data are not quality controlled and are presented in the format provided by the Met Office. The data are provided in a single file per month. The data were extracted from the WOW database using a latitude/longitude bounding box (North West corner 90N 70W to South East corner 10N 40E) so there are a small number of stations outside of Europe present. The meteorological values are unchanged from those extracted from the WoW archive. For example, there is no Quality Control of the data, no calibration of the instruments and no unit conversions have been applied. The data were extracted from the WoW archive by the Met Office operators of the WoW system. The data have not been manipulated to meet any international data format standards. The file names have been modified, from those provided by the Met Office, to contain location, data and status information. The records for each station are comma separated. Not all sites report all variables, nor at all times. In most cases only the principle meteorological variables, e.g., Air temperature, Wet bulb, etc. are present. For a full list of available parameters within the files see the 'variables' information on this record.
