Zusammenfassung:	Summary Science data gateways are effective in providing complex science data collections to the world‐wide user communities. In this paper we describe a gateway for the Advanced Simulation Capability for Environmental Management (ASCEM) framework. Built on top of established web service technologies, the ASCEM data gateway is specifically designed for environmental modeling applications. Its key distinguishing features include (1) handling of complex spatiotemporal data, (2) offering a variety of selective data access mechanisms, (3) providing state‐of‐the‐art plotting and visualization of spatiotemporal data records, and (4) integrating seamlessly with a distributed workflow system using a RESTful interface. ASCEM project scientists have been using this data gateway since 2011. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
