Project Title: Web Portal for Concentration and Flux of CO₂ in Global Inland Waters

Introduction

Observational data, especially in situ CO₂ concentration and flux measurements, are essential for correctly modeling CO₂ evasions from global inland waters. However, these measurements were collected and published separately by different research groups and there is a lack of a cohesive synthesis of direct measurements, hampering our ability to accurately model CO₂ emissions from inland waters. We believe that a global synthesis of direct CO₂ measurements would greatly enhance our understanding of the role that inland water plays in contributing CO₂ to the atmosphere. The aim of this project is to develop a publically accessible, easy-to-use web portal for inland water greenhouse gas researchers to easily input, visualize and download data from the portal. See this impressive web portal from Global Ocean Acidification Network for visualizing ocean field campaigns as an exmple: http://portal.goa-on.org/Explorer.

Refer to the project's phase 1 development for a general description of the CO₂web project.

Refer to the project's phase 2 development for a description of phase 2 goals and details.

Docker compose spin up

The project uses docker as the development environment. Make sure to have docker and docker-compose installed on your local machine then run the following command to build and spin up the application.

docker-compose -f infra/docker-compose.yml -p co2web up

Now the container should be running.

To have a Jupyter Notebook running from the Docker Container, run the command:

docker-compose -f infra/docker-compose.yml -p co2web run --rm --no-deps -p 8888:8888 django-web-server bash -c "source activate backend && jupyter notebook --allow-root --notebook-dir=./notebooks --ip=0.0.0.0 --port=8888"

To stop your work session, run ctrl + c

docker-compose -f infra/docker-compose.yml -p co2web down

To re-start your work session repeat the first two steps.
