• To see the rain cloud approaching your neighborhood before MGM Live Radar; Well, when you wake up one morning in the spring, it's covering your car and turning the sky yellow Which cities in Türkiye is the African / Syrian desert dust (Particulate Matter - PM10 / PM2.5) currently passing over, ocean currents, the polar vortex, or to which district the carbon monoxide (CO) smoke is carried by the wind Want to watch live through the eyes of NASA supercomputers? Here earth.nullschool.net is a masterpiece of scientific data that brings the breathing of our planet to your screen like a hypnotic work of art!

  When you open the site, you see a 3D Earth globe shining in the pitch black space, with thousands of live wind lines flowing on it. "earth", you can view not only wind and temperature from the hidden control panel that opens; Particulates (Dust transports, PM1, PM2.5, PM10 air pollution) and Chem (Carbon Monoxide, Carbon Dioxide, Sulfur Dioxide) layers, you can follow the quality of the air you breathe and global climate events in real time!

• STEP BY STEP USE:

  1. From your browser https://earth.nullschool.net/ and rotate the globe to zoom in on Türkiye.

  2. Click on the city you want; The exact coordinates of that point, wind direction and speed (click on the unit to see it in km/h) will appear in the lower left corner.

  3. In the lower left corner "earth" to open the advanced data dashboard.

  4. "Mode":

     • "Air": Wind speed, temperature (Temp), relative humidity (RH) and 3-hour rainfall accumulation (3HPA),

     • "Ocean": Sea water temperature (SST) and wave height (Waves),

     • "Chem": Carbon monoxide from fire and industry (COsc) and sulfur dioxide (SO2sm) intensity,

     • "Particles": Desert dust (DUex) and fine particle air pollution (PM2.5 and PM10)!

  5. Calendar / Forward-Back (<< < > >>) to review hour by hour forecasts for the next 5 days or atmospheric records for a specific date in past years (e.g. a major storm day).

• REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITS: No membership, password or fee required; The web version is completely free and ad-free. Data are updated on average every 3 hours from supercomputer numerical weather forecast and satellite assimilation models (GFS / GEOS-5 / CAMS).

• PRIVACY AND SECURITY: Does not request personal data. Scientific Note: Values shown are mathematical calculations of global atmospheric and ocean models and satellite data; In maritime, aviation or emergency disaster situations, warnings of official local authorities (MGM, AFAD, Coast Guard) should be taken as basis.

• ADVANTAGES, DISADVANTAGES AND WHOM IT IS SUITABLE FOR:

  • Advantages: Visualizing NASA and NOAA supercomputer data in seconds, desert dust (DUex) and PM2.5/PM10 air pollution monitoring, sea water temperature and wavelength analysis, ability to go back in time, zero advertising.

  • Disadvantages: Abbreviations on the lower left control panel (Sfc, hPa, PM2.5, SST) is used, the first time you use it, you need to hover over the abbreviation and see its explanation.

  • Who is it suitable for: Those who are sensitive/allergic to air pollution and desert dust, geography and science teachers/students, investigative journalists, sailors, nature photographers and science enthusiasts.

• BRIEF CONCLUSION: To understand geography and climate events and to see if there is desert dust or PM2.5 air pollution cloud over your city today earth.nullschool.net and click "earth -> Particulates -> PM2.5 / DUex" layer!
