Five years of scanner data from the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) and 8 years of surface radiation budget data (SRB) will be available for use by college/universities (and secondary (K-12) schools) over a world-wide-web browser. A third data set consisting of 1 year of scanner radiation budget data from the French/Russian experiment, ScaRab will be included as soon as that data is archived. The data base for ERBE is a 5-year monthly average time series from February 1985 through December 1989 and includes shortwave radiative fluxes, emitted longwave radiative fluxes, and albedos for the Earth's surface. The SRB data set spans the period from July 1983 through June 1991 and includes shortwave and longwave fluxes and albedos. Students will have access to the data in three ways. They can display GIF images of any month and visually observe changes from month-to-month or interannual variations. The data files for each month also have a spreadsheet format and can be downloaded in their entirety into any spreadsheet application program for further analysis. Thirdly, using a live access server (LAS) developed by the Thermal Modeling and Analysis Project (TMAP) at NOAA’s Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL), students can interact directly with the data to select and subset data sets in terms of month, year, latitude, and longitude. The LAS allows students to view images of subsetted regions, and to subset data values to a file for further analysis. The server for this data set is located at NASA, Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA 23681
