This NASAEarthdata Worldview image, based on NSIDC DAAC AMSR2 data (Sea ice concentration: nsidc.org/data/au_si12 & brightness temp for sea ice nsidc.org/data/AU_SI6) shows the iceberg & its proximity to South Georgia on November 5. NASA Worldview: go.nasa.gov/3ka48L3





People from 92 different countries have downloaded more than 9 million ICESat-2 data files from National Snow and Ice Data Center. Scientists have used the data in more than 50 scientific papers – including one that showed Greenland and Antarctica’s ice sheets lost 318 gigatons per year from 2003-2019.




In 2018, NASAEarthdata launched ICESat-2 to help scientists investigate why & how much the frozen parts of our planet are changing due to #climatechange. This week, downloads of data files from the satellite hit 10 million at the NSIDC DAAC. Learn more: bit.ly/3q9MUAH.


In less than 2 years, researchers have downloaded #ICESat2 data files *10 million* times from our partners NSIDC DAAC, accessing precise height measurements of our planet and its polar regions: nsidc.org/news/newsroom/…

Downloads of NASAEarthdata ICESat-2 data files at the NSIDC DAAC have hit 10 million! This milestone represents the wide acceptance and use of ICESat-2 #data by the research community, with nearly 3,000 scientists accessing the data thus far. bit.ly/3q9MUAH
