Other Interesting Resources
- Encyclopedia Britannica - This
is limited to certain subnets, so you'll just have to try it to see if
you're one of them. I believe that most University of California subnets
are eligible. See the artical on sequoias!
- Dictionary &
Thesaurus, and the dictionary entry for sequoia...
- Map Generator. This map
rendering package is an experiment by the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center.
It's experimental, but quite useful.

Canadian standard for geographic data storage.

Monthly Temperature Anomalies - An absolute must see. It lets
Mosaic users interact with a surface temperature dataset. Imagine
something like this tied to the
