| Polar Vortex Forecasts | |
| Forecast of the position, shape, and size of the polar air-mass in the stratosphere. It is displayed in terms of potential vorticity maps calculated by CGER, using the National Center for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) weather forecast data. | |
| Hateruma and Cape Ochi-ishi GHG Database | |
| NIES has been conducting greenhouse-gas monitoring at two ground-based stations.The data of CO2,CH4,N2O and meteorological elements are available. | |
| GHGs Emissions Data of Japan (1990-) | |
| Embodied Energy and Emission Intensity Data for Japan Using Input-Output Tables (3EID) - Inventory Data for LCA | |
| Data base compiling embodied environmental burden intensities for approximately 400 sectors of economic activity in 1990 and 1995. | |
| Online Trajectory Calculation/Meteorological Field Display | |
| You can calculate air trajectories and plot wind fields and contours of meteorological parameters using the reanalysis data of National center for Environmental Prodiction(NCEP)(available from 1978 to the present, two months delay). | |
| Stratospheric Ozone number density data (lidar) over Tsukuba | |
| Vertical profiles of Ozone between 15km (20km before 1997) and 45km for cloudless nighttime, during 1988 to 2004 are available in digits and graphs. | |
| The global water resources model "H08" | |
| This model enables us to simulate not only natural terrestrial hydrological cycle but also major human activities at high spatial and temporal resolutions. Source code, manuals, and meteorological input data of H08 are available. | |
| Water Soil Environment |
|
| Lake Kasumigaura Database | |
| NIES conducted several basic studies on the Lake Kasumigaura for nearly 20 years since its establishment. A vast amount of data on water quality and other variables were collected during this period. | |
| Ecosystem | |
| List of strains (Microbial Culture Collection) | |
| It is possible to refer to the list of strains preserved in the microbial culture collection at NIES, which includes the essential information of the culture strains, the references and image data. Additional information such as how to order, deposit, handle and cultivate strains is also available. | |
| Bioinformatics | |
| Profiles of Chemical Effect on Cells | |
| This database stores and handles gene expression profiling information and categorizes toxicity data. | |
| Dioxin Responsive Gene Database | |
| Summarizing information on microarray experiments conducted to study the effects of environmental contaminants, e.g., dioxin-related compounds. | |
| Waste/Recycle | |
| Lifespan database for Vehicles, Equipment, and Structures: LiVES | |
| The database compilation was supported by the Ministry of the Environment of Japan under Waste Management Research Grants K1810, K1930, and K2031. | |
| Environment and Society | |
| Database on sustainable development indicators (SDI) adopted by national governments,etc. | |
| Scope of the database covers 28 countries, regions, and international organizations listed and 1,848 types of indicators | |
