On Thursday, June 4th, All ORNL DAAC systems will be offline for scheduled hardware maintenance from 7am-12pm EDT.
Keep up with the latest carbon dioxide concentrations for our atmosphere: buff.ly/2qbNReG Jan. 2020 reading was 413 ppm. @NASAClimate has graphs & #data to download! The #ORNLDAAC also offers a variety of carbon cycle datasets: buff.ly/2UmZttf
#ICYMI: The Vista-CA dataset from the North American Carbon Program
@NACP_Carbon provides locations of potential #methane (CH4) emitting facilities & infrastructure across the state of California. buff.ly/3aIP7eT Used to support the California Methane Survey project.
Plants are important to the global #carbon cycle! 🌲s absorb CO2 during photosynthesis, store C above/below ground, produce O2. The #ORNLDAAC has >700 data holdings on forest structure/cover/biogeochemistry. Find one that's applicable to your research: buff.ly/2GwHc8d

Beautiful 🌏
On April 22, the world will celebrate the 50th anniversary of #EarthDay.
Follow @NASAEarth for its 50-day tribute, starting today, exploring how NASA’s Earth science, technology and space exploration are essential to the future of our planet.
🌎🗓 T-50 days until #EarthDay50
This year, we’re celebrating the 50th anniversary of #EarthDay. 🎉 Since the very beginning, @NASA has looked back to our home planet 🌎, helping solve environmental challenges and understand this beautiful, complex world.
