- Goddard Distributed Active Archive Center
- Provides data and related services for global change research and education. Funded through NASA's Earth Observing System (EOS) as a source of information about the upper atmosphere, atmospheric dynamics, and the global biosphere. Aims to assist the study of natural and human processes that influence Earth's climate.

- NIGEC: Midwestern Regional Center
- NIGEC was established in 1990 with funding from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Its mission is to carry out research on global environmental change. NIGEC is comprised of six regional research centers, one of which is the Midwestern Regional Center at Indiana University which examines the causes and consequences associated with global environmental change, particularly climate change due to human modification of the atmosphere. Web site provides information on research projects, and links to related sites.
