Sampling Biases of Space-Based Observations of XCO2 Associated With South American Biomass Burning Events During 2017-2020

- We examine time series of OCO-2 xCO 2 observations coincident with other remotely sensed and in-situ observations to better understand external sampling effects. - The OCO-2 Level 3 assimilation product fills in gaps where OCO-2 does not have observations. - Although the Level 3 clearly shows the increased CO 2 over the Amazon associated with the September 2017 biomass burning event, the total amount of CO 2 may be underestimated because of a sampling bias. - Since TCCON is also a remotely sensed product, it may suffer the same sampling biases associated with biomass burning events as OCO-2. - Aircraft data show that there is significant variation in xCO 2 with altitude. - The OCO-2 fused products created by kriging may be better than the assimilated product at detecting deviations from the average state.

Sampling Biases of Space-Based Observations of XCO 2 Associated With South American Biomass Burning Events

We examine time series of OCO-2 xCO2 observations from 2017-2020 coincident with other remotely sensed and in-situ observations to better understand external sampling effects associated with biomass burning events. The GES DISC will publish How-To documents as Jupyter Notebooks to describe how to aggregate OCO-2 Level 2 data and create similar time series.

Enhancing Dataset Discovery and Usage Tracking in Earth Sciences: Integrating Knowledge Graphs and Large Language Models

NASA's Data Active Archive Centers (DAACs) have played a crucial role in supporting a wide range of applied research in Earth and Environmental sciences. To date, over 20,000 publications have been collected, citing more than 3,000 NASA Earth science datasets. We present an innovative approach that links datasets and collected publications through a knowledge graph (KG). This KG enables the tracking of dataset citations throughout the dataset's lifecycle, revealing patterns of dataset usage across various applied research areas. We fine-tuned the pre-trained NASA IMPACT INDUS-Base Retriever Large Language Model (LLM) using a set of labeled publication abstracts. Our results indicate that 87% of the publications were classified into one of twenty applied research areas, while the remaining 13% were categorized into non-applied research areas. The classified publications linked to datasets are used to discover datasets by users interested in specific applied research and by dataset providers to determine dataset usage for applications.
