DOE Data Explorer (DDE) - Use to find scientific research data, such as computer simulations, numeric data files, figures and plots, interactive maps, multimedia, and scientific images, generated in the course of DOE (Department of Energy)-sponsored research in various science disciplines. It includes a database of citations based on the information found at data-hosting Web sites. It is intended to be particularly useful to students, the public, and to researchers who are new to a field or looking for experimental or observational data outside their normal field of expertise. You may browse or search the database, then link to a data collection where it resides.
