TES Hunts the Trail of Earth's Water
For the first time, NASA scientists have used a shrewd spaceborne detective to track the origin and movement of water vapor throughout Earth's atmosphere.

TES Tropospheric maps
First Maps of Tropospheric Ozone & Carbon Monoxide
Coincident measurements of tropospheric ozone and carbon monoxide are critical for understanding chemical and dynamical processes, which can be very complex in the troposphere.

First Global Observations of HDO/H2O ratio - A Tracer of Global Hydrological Processes
The hydrological cycle acts differently in different location. The TES measurements show that in the tropics, re-evaporation of precipitation is an important process controlling cloud formation. Up to 70% of precipitation is re-evaporated into the cloud.

TES HDO / H20 (Surface- 550 hPa)
HDO measurements tell us about ice cloud formation and evaporation. This is the first map of HDO ever made.
