Sample Datasets

The Data Library considers a dataset to be a collection of subdatasets and variables, variables are n-dimensional arrays of data with n one-dimensional independent variables describing those dimensions.

Examples

ssta - weekly global (lon, lat, time) sea surface temperature anomaly (SSTA) data
weekly - SST and SSTA and related variables
NDVI - NDVI data -- classic GIS dataset (i.e. restricted)
Tercile Precipitation - seasonal precipitation forecasts (lon, lat, tercile class, start time, lead time)
CMB T40 - GCM ensemble with virtual variables
CMB T40 average - GCM ensemble average (virtual dataset)
USGS Hydro-Climate Data - streamflow data set for the study of climate variations
Model Data from Unidata - a collection of model datasets on a Unidata server
