Supplementary data for "Are elevated moist layers a blind spot for hyperspectral infrared sounders? - A model study"

<p>This is the base data for the retrieval of water vapor, temperature and surface temperature&nbsp;based on forward simulated IASI&nbsp;measurements in the spectral bands between 1190-1400 and 645-800 cm-1,&nbsp;as well as 5 channels in the atmospheric window&nbsp;between 901.5 and 1115.75 cm-1.</p> <p>The data includes 1599 atmospheric states over tropical ocean regions, which is a subset of the&nbsp;ECMWF IFS diverse profile database&nbsp;with focus on a broad sampling of humidity states,&nbsp;published by Eresmaa et al. (2014). The full dataset is also available as&nbsp;part of the ARTS (Atmospheric Radiative Transfer Simulator)&nbsp;XML database (https://radiativetransfer.org/tools/).&nbsp;The data also includes the forward modelled&nbsp;spectra in units of brightness temperatures&nbsp;and the&nbsp;associated spectral frequency grid. ARTS&nbsp;is used as the forward model&nbsp;(https://radiativetransfer.org).</p> <p>This dataset is supplementary to the article &quot;Are elevated moist layers a blind spot for hyperspectral&nbsp;infrared sounders? - A model study&quot; that has been submitted to Atmospheric Measurement Techniques (AMT).</p>
