Fire radiative power and active fire pixels from 2020 to present derived from satellite observations
This dataset provides global information on the timing and location of Active Fires (AF) burning on Earth's surface during satellite overpasses, and also records their Fire Radiative Power (FRP) as a measure of strength. FRP relates to a fire's combustion rate, and the rate at which smoke containing greenhouse gases, reactive gases and particular matter is released into the atmosphere. The vast majority of detected hotspots are related to landscape fires, however other high temperature targets such as active volcanoes and gas flares are also present in the data.

This dataset provides agroclimatic indicators used to characterise plant-climate interactions for global agriculture. Agroclimatic indicators are useful in conveying climate variability and change in the terms that are meaningful to the agricultural sector. The objective of this dataset is to provide these indicators at a global scale in an easily accessible and usable format for further downstream analysis and the forcing of agricultural impact models.

This dataset provides monthly and zonally averaged tropospheric humidity profiles derived from globally distributed GPS radio occultation (RO) measurements from EUMETSAT's Metop polar-orbiting satellites. Humidity plays an important role in the Earth's climate system, due to the strong greenhouse effect of water vapour but also for its role in the global energy transport, vertically in the atmosphere and horizontally between different geographical regions.

Upper Tropospheric Humidity (UTH) is of key importance to the Earth’s greenhouse effect and understanding of climate change. It is considered an Essential Climate Variable (ECV) because it controls key atmospheric processes, including those involved in water vapour and cloud feedbacks, that can amplify the climate system’s response to increases in other greenhouse gases. The Upper Tropospheric Humidity is defined as the integrated amount of Water Vapour in the atmospheric layer between ~500 hPa and ~200 hPa.

Cloud properties directly influence the state of the Earth´s upper-air atmosphere. Clouds have an effect on weather and climate through their contribution to the Earth’s water cycle and impact on the Earth’s energy budget. They impact atmospheric motions on a range of spatial and temporal scales and contribute to changes in the atmospheric composition.

The Earth’s Radiation Budget (ERB) represents the overall balance between incoming and outgoing radiant energy at the Earth’s top-of-the-atmosphere. This Essential Climate Variable is the primary forcing of the climate system and is therefore a fundamental quantity to be monitored to understand the Earth’s climate and its variability. The Earth’s Radiation Budget comprises of the quantification of the incoming radiation from the Sun and the outgoing reflected shortwave and emitted longwave radiation.

Atmospheric water vapor, quantified here as Total Column Water Vapor (TCWV), holds paramount importance in monitoring and understanding Earth's climate dynamics. Its role as an Essential Climate Variable is pivotal, serving as the foundation for cloud formation, cloud physics, and significantly impacting the Earth's heat budget through its proficient absorption of both long and short-wave radiation.
This catalogue entry presents two extensive, high-quality observational datasets of TCWV, specifically tailored for climate analysis and applications.

This dataset provides daily and monthly global estimates of sea surface temperature (SST) based on observations from multiple satellite sensors since July 1979 (for the daily product) and January 1980 respectivly (for the monthly product). SST is a key driver of global weather and climate patterns and plays an important role in the exchanges of energy, momentum, moisture and gases between the ocean and atmosphere. Accurate SST data are therefore essential for understanding and assessing variability and long-term changes in the Earth’s climate.
