Maps of derived metrics aggregated to 1 degree for (a) crown scorch, (b) vegetation combustion, and (c) total relative tree mortality (from Rogers et al., 2015, Supplementary Figure 4).
A new data set characterizes the immediate and longer-term ecosystem changes from fires in the boreal forests of Northern Eurasia and North America.
Cumulative impact map of infrastructure related disturbances from 2010 for Prudhoe Bay Oilfield site A.
A new ABoVE data set provides historical records of vegetation, water, and soils within the Prudhoe Bay region of Alaska.
A typical pingo, Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. This feature is 7 m high and has a basal diameter of 110 m (from Walker, 1990).
A pingo is a mound of earth-covered ice found in the Arctic. A new data set provides vegetation data on 41 pingos in the North Slope of Alaska.
Ignition locations and burned area for Interior Alaska in 2015 (from Veraverbeke et al, 2017).
Researchers with NASA's ABoVE estimated the daily burned area and carbon emissions from boreal fires from 2001-2015.
Vegetation plot at Oumalik, Alaska (from Ebersole, 1985).
Alaskan researchers collected environmental data from 87 study plots near an abandoned test oil well in Oumalik, Alaska.
Upper Kuparuk River Region glacial geology map showing locations of Toolik Lake and Imnavait Creek research areas.
Data released in support of NASA's ABoVE project provides vegetation, landscape, hydrology, and geologic maps for the Kuparuk River Basin in Alaska.
Cumulative tree mortality due to (a) fires and (b) bark beetles from 2003-2012 on forestland in the western United States (from Berner et al., 2017, in review).
Wildfire and bark beetles caused tree mortality, and decreased carbon storage, in areas of the western USA from 2003-2012.
Mean snowmelt Day of Year (DOY) for the years 2001-2015 for North America. The DOY values for snowmelt timing were identified by observing the transition from snow-cover to no-snow for individual MODIS pixels throughout the annual melt period.
A new time-series analysis of snow cover has identified the day of snowmelt in each MODIS pixel across North America in each year from 2001 - 2015.

Global monthly 0.5-deg by 0.5-deg wetland methane emissions from (a) the full ensemble (2009-2010) and (b) extended ensemble (2001-2015). From Bloom et al. (2017).
NASA's Carbon Monitoring System releases data characterizing monthly global methane emissions and uncertainty from wetlands.
