Aircraft Data
In-service Aircraft for a Global Observing System (IAGOS) is a European Research Infrastructure for global observations of atmospheric composition from commercial aircraft.
ATOM provides information on greenhouse gases and human-produced air pollution, including atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), tropospheric ozone (O3), and black carbon (BC) aerosols, collected during airborne campaigns conducted by NASA’s Atmospheric Tomography (ATom) mission.
The ACT-America airborne dataset provides merged in situ atmospheric trace gas measurements collected during flights over the central and eastern United States as part of the Atmospheric Carbon and Transport – America (ACT-America) project. Observations were acquired using the NASA Langley Beechcraft B200 King Air and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center C-130H Hercules aircraft. The merged data products include atmospheric concentrations of ozone (O₃), carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), carbon monoxide (CO), and ethane (C₂H₆; B200 aircraft only), together with aircraft navigation, meteorological variables, and trace gas measurements from discrete flask samples collected using the Programmable Flask Package (PFP).
