The Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) Reference Upper-Air Network (GRUAN) is an international reference observing network, established in 2006, of sites measuring essential climate variables above Earth's surface, designed to fill an important gap in the current global observing system. GRUAN measurements are providing high-quality climate data records from the surface, through the troposphere, and into the stratosphere.

This dataset provides access to two types of ozone observations: total column ozone estimates and vertical profiles of ozone concentration.
The total ozone estimates are based on solar UV radiation measurements made by ground-based spectrophotometers (Dobson or Brewer type spectrophotometers).
The vertical profiles of ozone concentration are estimated primarily using ozonesonde observations.
Data are available for 159 Dobson stations, 109 Brewer stations and 135 ozonesondes stations.

This dataset provides estimates of water vapour derived from atmospheric delays in Global Navigation Satellite System
(GNSS) radio signals.
The initial data is collected from two in situ ground-based network of GNSS receivers – the International GNSS Service
(IGS) and EUREF Permanent Network (EPN). The IGS collects, archives, and freely distributes GNSS data from a
cooperatively operated global network of more than 500 ground-based GNSS stations since 1994. The EPN is a European

This dataset provides daily mid-morning measurements for Lake Surface Water Temperature (LSWT) derived from satellite observations. LSWT, together with five other variables (lake ice cover and thickness, water leaving reflectance, water level and extent) is recognised as the Essential Climate Variable (ECV) "Lakes" by the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS). LSWT is a key parameter in determining lake ecological conditions as it influences physical, chemical and biological processes.

This dataset provides global maps describing the land surface into 22 classes, which have been defined using the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization’s (UN FAO) Land Cover Classification System (LCCS). In addition to the land cover (LC) maps, four quality flags are produced to document the reliability of the classification and change detection.

This dataset contains monthly daytime and nighttime clear-sky land surface temperatures (LSTs) and their uncertainty estimates from multiple Infra-Red (IR) instruments on polar orbiting satellites. Daytime and nighttime temperatures correspond to 10:00 and 22:00 local solar time (local solar time is defined as the time in a 24 hour day with 12 noon occurring when the sun is at its highest point at that longitude).

This catalogue entry provides access to a continuous series of near-surface climate observations collected in-situ at
United States Climate Reference Network (USCRN) stations.
There are over 130 USCRN stations over the conterminous United States (U.S.), Alaska, and Hawaii.
The USCRN stations are managed and maintained by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
The USCRN observations include air temperature, humidity, wind speed, precipitation, solar radiation,

This catalogue entry provides access to vertical profiles of standard meteorological variables. It includes two archives.
The first is version 2 of the Integrated Global Radiosounding Archive (IGRA) from 1978 which incorporates global
radiosounding profiles of temperature, humidity and wind from a large number of data sources,
which is 30% larger than the previous version 1. IGRA v2 is the result of quality assurance procedures applied to the
