"The Daily Planet." This
site is operated by the Department of Atmospheric Sciences at the
University of Illinois, under a cooperative agreement with NASA. It
provides general earth sciences data with an emphasis on meteorology and
climatology. The site includes a lot of innovative educational material
for students from Kindergarten through the 12th grade. (15 October, 1995)
Dartmouth Flood Observatory. Project of Dartmouth College's Global Flood Monitoring and Analysis Project. The project emphasizes the use of flood images obtained from high resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellites. Using the images and information gleaned from other sources, this site provides "an evolving database of extreme flood events which have occurred in areas around the world since January 1, 1994." (20 May, 1996 ) Department of Agriculture (US). See US Department of Agriculture Department of Energy (US). See US Department of Energy Desert Research Institute (Nevada, USA). "Water resources and air quality, global climate change and the physics of the earth's turbulent atmosphere, humanity's historic struggle to adapt to harsh environments, and its urgent search today for the technology of the next century ... these are the fundamental issues underlying the research programs of Nevada's Desert Research Institute." (added 10 April, 1997) Deutsches Klimarechenzentrum (German Climate Computing Center) Discovery Online, Global Temperature Cam. Updated every 12 hours with satellite data from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, this map shows temperatures in the earth's lower atmosphere (troposphere).(updated 26 October 1999) "El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) Home Page" NOAA, Office of Global Programs (posted 1 February, 1998)
Environmental Health Center of the National Safety Council. Includes The Environment Writer newsletter and the journalist guide, Reporting on Climate Change: Understanding the Science. Environmental Protection Agency (US). See US Environmental Protection Agency European Commission, Directorate General XII, Science, Research and Development: Human Dimensions of environmental change - Projects. (updated 26 October 1999) European Environment Agency. Includes section on climate change. FireNet (Australian National University). "The International Fire Information Network." Florida State University, Center for Ocean-Atmospheric Prediction Studies (COAPS). "COAPS performs research in air-sea interactions including ocean modeling, coupled air-sea modeling, climate prediction on scales of months to decades, statistical studies and predictions of social and economic consequences of ocean-atmospheric variations." Includes good list of Oceanography and Meteorology Servers and of El Niño Resources. |
