Climatology from the Internet

The internet has become an excellent source for large data topics such as weather and climatology. The original advantage of the "net" has allowed scientists to interact, and collaborate with other scientists, as well as peruse other's data and findings on a worldwide basis.

Climate is the long term weather in a specific region; like an ecosystem or biome.

Weather is the change of atmospheric conditions anywhere on the planet. Weather can change from day to day or from hour to hour.

[edit] National Center for Environmental Prediction

Is an inter-institutional cooperative effort to collect and display data about Earth's environment.

[1] -- NOAA's National Weather Service provides an example of products now used for operational meteorologists.

[2] -- NCEP holds a location for weather forecasts using model analyses.

[3] -- Satellite servers from GOES satellites provided by NESDIS.

[4] -- Global pollutants are tracked via satellite.

[5] -- Volcanic activitiy is even tracked by satellite.

[6] -- Hazard management services.
