MOSAIC-VRE

The Multidisciplinary Drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) was the largest Arctic research expedition to this date. Together with the Alfred Wegner Institut (AWI) as well as the German Climate Computing Center (DKRZ) we aim to provide novel methods and software tools for online data analysis, data exploration, data visualization, and data quality control inside a unified virtual research environment (VRE). The MOSAiC-VRE (M-VRE) enables scientists to exploit large, complex, and heterogeneous datasets to answer fundamental research questions of the MOSAiC expedition from within their browsers, lowering the barrier of entry to work with data gathered during the MOSAiC expedition.
