In order to improve our understanding of the effect of aerosols on climate and air quality, measurements of aerosol chemical composition, size distribution, height profile, and optical properties are of crucial importance. In terms of remotely sensed instrumentation, the most extensive set of aerosol properties can be obtained by combining passive multi-angle, multi-spectral measurements of intensity and polarization with active measurements performed by a High Spectral Resolution Lidar. During Fall 2017, the Aerosol Characterization from Polarimeter and Lidar (ACEPOL) campaign, jointly sponsored by NASA and the Netherlands Institute for Space Research (SRON), performed aerosol and cloud measurements over the United States from the NASA high altitude ER-2 aircraft. Six instruments were deployed on the aircraft. Four of these instruments were multi-angle polarimeters: the Airborne Hyper Angular Rainbow Polarimeter (AirHARP), the Airborne Multiangle SpectroPolarimetric Imager (AirMSPI), the Airborne Spectrometer for Planetary Exploration (SPEX Airborne) and the Research Scanning Polarimeter (RSP). The other two instruments were lidars: the High Spectral Resolution Lidar 2 (HSRL-2) and the Cloud Physics Lidar (CPL). The ACEPOL operation was based at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Palmdale California, which enabled observations of a wide variety of scene types, including urban, desert, forest, coastal ocean and agricultural areas, with clear, cloudy, polluted and pristine atmospheric conditions. The primary goal of ACEPOL was to assess the capabilities of the different polarimeters for retrieval of aerosol and cloud microphysical and optical parameters, as well as their capabilities to derive aerosol layer height (near-UV polarimetry, O2 A-band). ACEPOL also focused on the development and evaluation of aerosol retrieval algorithms that combine data from both active (lidar) and passive (polarimeter) instruments. ACEPOL data are appropriate for algorithm development and testing, instrument intercomparison, and investigations of active and passive instrument data fusion, which is a valuable resource for remote sensing communities as they prepare for the next generation of spaceborne MAP and lidar missions. not-provided ACEPOL_AircraftRemoteSensing_AirSPEX_Data.v1 ACEPOL Airborne Spectrometer for Planetary Exploration (AirSPEX) Remotely Sensed Data Version 1 LARC_ASDC 2017-10-19 2017-11-09 -130, 25, -100, 45 https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C1758588281-LARC_ASDC.json ACEPOL_AircraftRemoteSensing_AirSPEX_Data are remotely sensed measurements collected by the Airborne Spectrometer for Planetary Exploration (SPEX Airborne) onboard the ER-2 during the Aerosol Characterization from Polarimeter and Lidar (ACEPOL) campaign.

The ACEPOL operation was based at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Palmdale California, which enabled observations of a wide variety of scene types, including urban, desert, forest, coastal ocean and agricultural areas, with clear, cloudy, polluted and pristine atmospheric conditions. The primary goal of ACEPOL was to assess the capabilities of the different polarimeters for retrieval of aerosol and cloud microphysical and optical parameters, as well as their capabilities to derive aerosol layer height (near-UV polarimetry, O2 A-band). ACEPOL also focused on the development and evaluation of aerosol retrieval algorithms that combine data from both active (lidar) and passive (polarimeter) instruments. ACEPOL data are appropriate for algorithm development and testing, instrument intercomparison, and investigations of active and passive instrument data fusion, which make them valuable resources for remote sensing communities as they prepare for the next generation of spaceborne MAP and lidar missions. not-provided ACIDD.v0 Across the Channel Investigating Diel Dynamics project OB_DAAC 2017-12-16 -180, -90, 180, 90 https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C1633360091-OB_DAAC.json The ACIDD (Across the Channel Investigating Diel Dynamics) project, in the Santa Barbara Channel, was initially designed to characterize daily variations in phytoplankton populations, but with the Thomas Fire in the Santa Barbara Hills December 2017, this project evolved into a study to characterize the effects of smoke and ash on the mixed layer in the Santa Barbara Channel. not-provided -ACOS_L2S.v7.3 ACOS GOSAT/TANSO-FTS Level 2 Full Physics Standard Product V7.3 (ACOS_L2S) at GES DISC GES_DISC 2009-04-20 -180, -90, 180, 90 https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C1339230297-GES_DISC.json "Version 7.3 is the current version of the data set.

The ADAM climatologies that feed the ADAM calculation tools are: For ocean: monthly chlorophyll concentration derived from SeaWiFS-OrbView-2 (1999-2009); it is used to compute the water column reflectance (which shows large spectral variations in the visible, but is insignificant in the near and mid infrared). monthly wind speed derived from SeaWinds-QuikSCAT-(1999-2009); it is used to calculate the ocean glint reflectance.

This data set has applications for environmental monitoring and for assessing impacts of global climate change. An Alaska AVHRR data set is comprised of twice-monthly maximum NDVI composites of daily satellite observations. The NDVI composites contain 10 bands of information, including AVHRR channels 1-5, maximum NDVI, satellite zenith, solar zenith, and relative azimuth. The daily observations, bands 1-9, have been calibrated to reflectance, scaled to byte data, and geometrically registered to the Albers Equal-Area Conic map projection. The 10th band is a pointer to identify the date and scene ID of the source daily observation (scene) for each pixel. The compositing process required each daily overpass to be registered to a common map projection to ensure that from day to day each 1-km pixel represented the exact same ground location. The Albers Equal-Area Conic map projection provides for equal area representation, which enables easy measurement of area throughout the data. Each daily observation for the growing season was registered to a base image using image-to-image correlation. The NDVI data are calculated from the calibrated, geometrically registered daily observations. The NDVI value is the difference between near-infrared (AVHRR Channel 2) and visible (AVHRR Channel 1) reflectance values divided by total measured reflectance. A maximum NDVI compositing process was used on the daily observations. The NDVI is examined pixel by pixel for each observation during the compositing period to determine and retain the maximum value. Often when displaying data covering large areas, such as AVHRR data, it is beneficial to include an overlay of either familiar linework for reflectance or polygon data sets to derive statistical summaries of regions. All of the linework images represent lines in raster format as 1-km cells and the strata are represented as polygons registered to the AVHRR data. The linework and polygon data sets include international boundaries, Alaskan roads with the Trans-Alaska Pipeline, and a raster polygon mask of the State. not-provided ALOS Alos African Coverage ESA archive ESA 2006-07-09 2009-05-12 -26, -37, 53, 37 https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C1965336815-ESA.json ALOS Africa is a dataset of the best available (cloud minimal, below 10%) African coverage acquired by AVNIR-2 in OBS mode and PRISM in OB1 mode (all Backward, Nadir and Forward views, in separated products), two different collections one for each instrument.
