Description
<<<!!!<<< This repository is no longer available. >>>!!!>>>
In 2016, NSIDC partnered with the United States Antarctic Program - Data Center (USAP-DC) at Columbia University to consolidate NSF glaciology data into a central USAP Project Catalog and a Data Repository for research datasets derived from these projects. From 2016 to 2018, the AGDC data sets were transferred to USAP-DC. All AGDC data previously archived with NSIDC are now available via the USAP-DC https://www.re3data.org/repository/r3d100010660.
