| + | ===NASA Science Explorer - Type II=== |
| − | ::"The Earth System Grid Center for Enabling Technologies (ESG-CET), a Department of Energy project and world-class source for climate modeling data, is building a multi-institutional cyberinfrastructure to advance a federated system of “science gateways and portals”. In order to meet the growing global demand for climate resources, ESG-CET aims to provide tens of petabytes of data, information, models, analysis, visualization, and computational capabilities needed by a variety of stakeholders including scientists, policy-makers, and the general public. Since its production beginnings, in 2004, the ESG has housed and distributed notable data collections for well-known science endeavors such as the North American Regional Climate Change Assessment Program (NARCCAP), the Community Climate System Model (CCSM), and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report (AR4).
| |
| | | | |
| − | The ESG-CET is a collaboration of seven U.S. research laboratories and a university working together to identify and implement key computational and informational technologies for advancing climate change science. In addition, ESG-CET is working with other universities in areas of data management and mining, visualization, and workflow analysis.
| + | In 2023, NASA invited the Astrophysics Data System (ADS) to expand it's focus into the Earth sciences, heliophysics, planetary |
| | + | science, biological sciences, and physical sciences, giving rise to the digital library portal known as NASA Science Explorer |
| | + | (SciX). Crafted to be as invaluable to Earth science as ADS is to astrophysics, SciX efficiently cross-links diverse bibliographic |
| | + | and data sources, fostering inclusivity and comprehensive scientific exploration. Offering researchers unparalleled access to a |
| | + | wealth of knowledge, SciX actively embraces Open Science principles, indexing NASA's PubSpace, Earth Science journals, |
| | + | preprints, meeting abstracts, theses, data sets, software, and more. Beyond being a comprehensive library resource, SciX |
| | + | empowers researchers with advanced citation metrics and data visualizations to pinpoint potential collaborators, establishing |
| | + | itself as a dynamic resource capable of supporting accessible and collaborative scientific research across all NASA science |
| | + | mission directorate areas. |
| | | | |
| − | The ESG-CET project’s goals are (1) to make data more useful to climate researchers by advancing Grid technology that enhances data usability; (2) to meet specific needs of national and international climate projects for distributed database, data access, and data movement; (3) to provide secure web-based data access portals to broad-based multi-model data collections; and (4) to provide a wide-range of Grid-enabled climate data analysis tools and diagnostic methods to international climate centers and U.S. government agencies."

Our mission is to enhance the education environment to excite students about science, technology, engineering, and math through space-based technology – satellites and satellite data. We accomplish this through our website with monthly newsletters, our annual Satellites & Education Conference that brings together NOAA, NASA, the aerospace industry and teachers to provide information, training and resources to improve STEM education in K-16 thus promoting careers that use satellites and satellite data, and our M.Y. S.P.A.C.E. Program which trains and facilitates global research by local schools, their teachers and students. The conference has been supported by NOAA for over 20 years and by NASA for more than 15 years."
