Geophysics Information (formerly NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center)
Starting from the sun, through the Earth’s surface, and penetrating into its interior, Geophysics provides archive and data services for space weather, satellites, tsunamis, the U.S. Extended Continental Shelf, coastal Digital Elevation Models, and geomagnetism. This wide range of data supports safe navigation both in space and on our oceans and coasts in addition to providing the information needed in tsunami forecasting, sea level rise prediction, and storm surge inundation.

Oceans and Coasts Information (formerly NOAA's National Oceanographic and Coastal Data Development Centers)
The world’s largest collection of freely available oceanographic and coastal data, including water temperatures dating back to the late 1700s and measuring up to tens of thousands of meters deep. Other datasets include salinity, nutrients, waves, and currents. Products include regional climatologies, ocean heat content anomalies, satellite sea surface temperatures, the World Ocean Atlas, Argo floats, hypoxia, NOAA Extreme Weather Information Sheets, and ocean acidification parameters.

Weather and Climate Information (formerly NOAA's National Climatic Data Center)
The world’s largest climate data archive with records ranging from paleoclimatology data to centuries-old journals to data less than an hour old. Data are from land-based weather and climate stations, ships, buoys, weather balloons, radar, satellites, and sophisticated climate models. A suite of information products is also available to describe the global climate and monitor trends.
