PO.DAAC

The PO.DAAC is pleased to announce the public release of the CYGNSS Level 2 Ocean Surface Heat Flux Climate Data Record (CDR) Version 1.0. More information regarding the CYGNSS mission and instrumentation is available from PO.DAAC’s mission webpage.

This dataset provides the time-tagged and geolocated ocean surface heat flux parameters with 25 x 25 kilometer footprint resolution from the Delay Doppler Mapping Instrument (DDMI) aboard the CYGNSS satellite constellation.

On September 24, Suomi-NPP performed an "Inclination Adjust Maneuver" (https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/icvs/SNPP_Anomalies.php). During the maneuver, the NOAA ACSPO VIIRS SST products from NPP were negatively affected and therefore, the following L2P/L3U SST data granules have been removed from PO.DAAC repository.

PO.DAAC is continuing its transition towards a web portal that is content centered, data driven, and provides personalized user experiences that are supplemented with efficient search and discovery capabilities.

In this second phase, a user will experience improvements in the PO.DAAC Web Portal Dataset Search and Discovery powered by NASA Earthdata Common Metadata Repository (CMR) including free-text search, faceted search and filtering, and information displayed on the dataset landing pages.

The PO.DAAC is pleased to announce the public release of Reconstructed Global Mean Sea Level (GMSL) from GRACE and In Situ observations 1900 to 2018. The dataset was produced by JPL scientist Thomas Frederikse and his colleagues for their recent Nature publication (Frederikse et al., 2020) under funding produced by NASA’s Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) Program through a project called Heat and Ocean Mass from Gravity ESDR (HOMAGE).

The PO.DAAC is pleased to announce the public release of the NOAA CYGNSS Level 2 Science Wind Speed 25-km Product Version 1.1. More information regarding the CYGNSS mission and instrumentation is available from PO.DAAC’s mission webpage.

This week, Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC) users will receive an email invitation from CFI Group (noreply@feedback.cfigroup.com) on behalf of NASA. This message will ask you to participate in a web-based survey of NASA Earth Science data and services.
