“DLESE is the Digital Library for Earth System Education, a geoscience community resource that supports teaching and learning about the Earth system. It is funded by the National Science Foundation and is being built by a community of educators, students, and scientists to support Earth system education at all levels and in both formal and informal settings. DLESE provides:
- Easy access to quality teaching and learning resources about the Earth as a system for a wide range of learners.
- Services to help users effectively create, use and evaluate digital learning resources.
- Interfaces and tools to allow student exploration of Earth data.
- A community center that fosters interaction, collaboration and sharing. “

“PANGAEA – Publishing Network for Geoscientific & Environmental Data is an Open Access library aimed at archiving, publishing and distributing georeferenced data from earth system research. Data can be found by using the PANGAEA search engine. or through links on web pages. Most of the data are freely available and can be used by referencing the related publication or the dataset citation. Some data sets from ongoing projects are under moratorium and access may be restricted. The data description (metadata) of all data sets are visible and include the principle investigators (PI) name and email for contact.”
PANGAEA is open to any project or individual scientist to archive and publish data!

The 6th Meeting of the International Council for Research and Innovation in Building and Construction (CIB) focuses on climate change and the build environment. The aim of the meeting was to discuss and disseminate the latest findings and research, particularly “the assessment report from the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) and recent research results on the analysis and use of weather data in building design.” Topics covered included climate models, scenarios and data, and climate change impacts studies and impact assessment methods and adaptation strategies.

Launched just recently in 2007, Environmental Research Letters is dedicated to “bringing together intellectual and professional scientists, economists, engineers and social scientists, as well as the public sector and civil society who are engaged in efforts to understand the state of natural systems and, increasingly, the human footprint on the biosphere.”
The journal’s coverage reflects the increasingly interdisciplinary nature of environmental science. Its typical areas of interest include biodiversity, climate change, demographics and the environment, energy, environmental history, culture and economics, health, pollution, science and practice of sustainability, etc.
