The National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) provides scientific stewardship of marine data and information and is one of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) environmental data centers. The NODC data search is integrated with the National Coastal Data Development Center (NCDDC) and the NOAA Central Library to provide access to the world's most comprehensive sources of marine environmental data and information. NODC data include physical, biological and chemical measurements derived from in situ oceanographic observations, satellite remote sensing of the oceans, and ocean model simulations. Data are gathered on phenomena such as temperature, ocean currents, chlorophyll, waves, nutrients, satellite data, pH, salinity, sea level, oxygen, plankton, snow and ice, biology and ocean profiles. Included are the 2009 World Ocean Atlas, World Ocean Database, Deepwater Horizon Incident (Gulf of Mexico) datasets and interactive maps, Global Ocean Heat Content (1995-2008) analysis, Sea Surface Temperature (SST) pathfinder, and coastal regional ecosystem datasets. Research Divisions within NODC include the Coastal Ocean Laboratory (COL), the Ocean Climate Laboratory (OCL), and the NOAA Central Library.

Title	DLESE Community Collection
Link	http://www.dlese.org/
Description	The Digital Library for Earth System Education (DLESE) mission is to improve the quality, quantity, and efficiency of teaching and learning about the Earth System, by developing, managing, and providing access to high-quality educational resources and supporting services through a community-based, distributed digital library. Intended users include students, educators and citizens of all ages, in both formal and informal learning environments. The collection favors resources that convey linkages and connections; the general with the specific, theory with evidence, global with local, and that demonstrate the application of science to solving real world problems. This includes providing access to Earth data sets and imagery, and the tools and interfaces that enable their effective use. DLESE resources are community-contributed, by individuals, organizations, and formal collection efforts.
