Posterior South American monthly mean surface flux of methane (2010-2018) produced using the INVICAT 4D-Var inverse model.

This data set consist of a single file which contains a set of optimised global surface fluxes of methane (CH4), produced through variational inverse methods using the TOMCAT chemical transport model, and the INVICAT inverse transport model. These surface fluxes are produced as monthly mean values on the (approximately) 5.6-degree horizontal model grid. The associated uncertainty for the flux from each grid cell is also included. The fluxes and uncertainties are global and cover the period Jan 2010 – Dec 2018.

Obs4MIPs: Monthly-mean diurnal cycle of top of atmosphere outgoing shortwave radiation from the GERB instrument (GERB-HR-ED01-1-1 rsut 1hrCM), v20231221

This dataset contains top of atmosphere (TOA) outgoing shortwave radiation from the Geostationary Earth Radiation Budget (GERB) instrument on board the Meteosat-9 geostationary satellite, for the period from May 2007 until December 2012. In this dataset (labelled ‘GERB-HR-ED01-1-1 rsut 1hrCM’), the data provided consist of monthly-mean diurnal cycles, with each day resolved into 1-hour means. Data are only available for eight months of each year (January, February, May, June, July, August, November and December), due to operational constraints of the GERB instrument.

Weighing trees with lasers project: terrestrial laser scanner data; French Guiana, Cayenne, Nourague Nature Reserve plot site

This dataset is comprised of raw data from the NERC-funded, full waveform terrestrial laser scanner (TLS) deployed at sites on three continents, multiple countries and plot locations which, have been re-surveyed at different times. This plot site was situated in French Guiana, Cayenne, Nourague Nautre Reserve. The plot site had the following geographical features; Moisture type: Moist, Elevation: Lowland, Edaphic Type: Terra Firma, Substrate:Mixed, Geology: Pre-Quaternary,Forrestry: Old-growth.
