 Climate, Oceans and Solid Earth Sciences: Projects

AIRS Icon AIRS
The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder, AIRS, is an instrument whose goal is to support climate research and improved weather forecasting.

ASTER Icon ASTER
ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer) is an imaging instrument flying on Terra, a satellite launched in December 1999 as part of NASA's Earth Observing System (EOS).

Aquarius Icon Aquarius
Aquarius will provide the first-ever global maps of salt concentration in the ocean surface needed to understand heat transport and storage in the ocean.

ECCO Central Production Icon ECCO Central Production
The "Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean" (ECCO) project produces sustained estimates of the complete global three-dimensional state of the ocean by assimilating observations with ocean circulation models.

ECCO-Ices Icon ECCO-Ices
ECCO-Ices is an ECCO-follow-on project that aims to produce increasingly accurate syntheses of all available global-scale ocean and sea-ice data at resolutions that start to resolve ocean eddies.

GRACE-Tellus Icon GRACE-Tellus
Produces and delivers high-quality, easy-to use data products derived from the GRACE mission.

OSTM/Jason 2 Icon OSTM/Jason 2
This satellite mission is a follow-on to Jason-1 to continue the climate data record of global ocean surface topography for monitoring the changes in ocean circulation and sea level.

OurOcean Icon OurOcean
The JPL OurOcean Portal provides both real-time and retrospective analysis of remote sensing data and ocean model simulations in the Pacific Ocean.

ROMS - Regional Ocean Modeling System Icon ROMS - Regional Ocean Modeling System
The goal of the JPL ROMS group is to provide real-time and retrospective analysis of remote sensing data and ocean model simulations in the Pacific Ocean. We are particularly interested in the U.S. West Coastal Ocean with focused areas around Southern Cal

SMAP - Soil Moisture Active & Passive Icon SMAP - Soil Moisture Active & Passive
SMAP will provide global measurements of soil moisture and its freeze/thaw state.

Megacities Carbon Project Icon Megacities Carbon Project
The Megacities Carbon Project is being established for the megacities of Los Angeles and Paris.
