AERONET (Sun Photometer Global Network) - AERONET (AErosol RObotic NETwork) is an optical ground based aerosol monitoring
network and data archive supported by NASA's Earth Observing System and expanded by
federation with many non-NASA institutions. The network hardware consists of identical
automatic sun-sky scanning spectral radiometers owned by national agencies and universities.
Data from this collaboration provides globally distributed near real time observations of aerosol
spectral optical depths, aerosol size distributions, and precipitable water in diverse aerosol
regimes.

Global Fire Monitoring - The purpose of this site is to explain and illustrate current and future global fire
monitoring capabilities. The data links section is being expanded to increase
accessibility to current data. Information will be updated as new technologies,
data products, and approaches emerge, enhancing our understanding of and
capabilities in monitoring fires on a global scale.
