SCR/Nimbus-5 Level 1 Calibrated Radiances V001 (SCRN5L1RAD) at GES DISC

SCRN5L1RAD is the Nimbus-5 Selective Chopper Radiometer (SCR) Level 1 Calibrated Radiances data product. The calibrated radiances are measured at 16 channels from 2.3 to 133 micrometers with a ground resolution of 25 km, and are "declouded" (interpolated and smoothed across regions of cloud). The radiances were used to obtain the global temperature structure of the atmosphere up to 50 km altitude, the distribution of water vapor, and the density of ice particles in cirrus clouds. The data were recovered from the original 9-track tapes, and are now stored online as daily files in their original proprietary binary format with about 14 orbits per day.Spatial coverage is near global from latitude -80 to +80 degrees. The data are available from 13 December 1972 (day of year 347) to 26 December 1974 (day of year 360). The principal investigator for the SCR experiment was Dr. John T. Houghton from Oxford University.This product was previously available from the NSSDC with the identifier ESAD-00250 (old ID 72-097A-02A).

Sounder SIPS: Aqua AIRS Level-1B Calibration Subset: Summary, V2 (SNDRAQIML1BCALSUBSUM) at GES DISC

The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) is a grating spectrometer (R = 1200) aboard the second Earth Observing System (EOS) polar-orbiting platform, EOS Aqua. AIRS/Aqua Level-1C calibration subset including clear cases, special calibration sites, random nadir spots, and high clouds. Infrared temperature sounders generate a large amount of Level-1B spectral data. For example, the AIRS instrument with 2378 channels, its visible light component and AMSU with 15 channels create 3x240 files each day, for a total of over 500 MB of data. The purpose of the Calibration Data Subsets is extract key information from these data into a few daily files to: 1. Facilitate a quick evaluation of the absolute calibration of the instruments. 2. Facilitate an assessment of the instrument performance under clear, cloudy, and extreme hot and cold conditions. 3. Facilitate the evaluation of instrument trends and their significance relative to climate trends. 4. Facilitate the comparison of AIRS with CrIS using their equivalent data subsets.The output files are constructed from Level-1B or Level-1C IR and MW brightness or antenna temperatures. Each file contains selected observations taken from a nominal 24-hour period. The “summary” product includes a large set of cases of interest, including all identified spectra that match selection criteria detailed below for clear, special cloud classes, etc. These amount to about 10% of all spectra. But for each selected case only brightness temperatures (BTs) for selected key channels are saved.

OCO-2 Level 1B calibrated, geolocated science spectra, Retrospective Processing V10r (OCO2_L1B_Science) at GES DISC

Version 10r is the current version of the data set. Older versions will no longer be available and are superseded by Version 10r.In early 2021, the OCO Team identified an issue with OCO-2 level 2 products processed since January 28, 2020. The Ancillary Geometric Product (AGAP) file, a static file used in OCO-2 Geolocation processing, was inadvertently replaced with an obsolete version. This AGAP file included a ~300 m pointing error. As a result, all OCO-2 Level 2, version 10r, data files for the period January 28 - December 31, 2020, were corrected and replaced. The replacement process was completed by the end of June, 2021. The significance of this error has been described in Kiel et al. (2019; doi:10.5194/amt-12-2241-2019).The Orbiting Carbon Observatory is the first NASA mission designed to collect space-based measurements of atmospheric carbon dioxide with the precision, resolution, and coverage needed to characterize the processes controlling its buildup in the atmosphere. The OCO-2 project uses the LEOStar-2 spacecraft that carries a single instrument. It incorporates three high-resolution spectrometers that make coincident measurements of reflected sunlight in the near-infrared CO2 near 1.61 and 2.06 micrometers and in molecular oxygen (O2) A-Band at 0.76 micrometers. The three spectrometers have different characteristics and are calibrated independently. Their raw data numbers (DN) are delivered correlated in time to the Level 1B process as Level 1A products. Each band has 1016 spectral elements, although some are masked out in the L2 retrieval.This product is the output from the Level 1B process. It converts the raw instrument data numbers into calibrated radiances. This conversion is based upon files of instrument characteristics and algorithm parameters that may vary over time. In addition to calibrated radiances, the Level 1B output products have geolocation information recorded for each measurement for use in higher-level processes.This is the retrospective processing where the calibration data is estimated from the full timeseries of data (before, during, and after the measurements), and is expected to be of slightly higher quality.

Sounder SIPS: Sun Synchronous 13:30 orbit Climate Hyperspectral InfraRed Product (CHIRP): Calibrated Radiances from EOS-Aqua, S-NPP, JPSS-1/NOAA-20, V2 (SNDR13CHRP1) at GES DISC

The Climate Hyperspectral Infrared Radiance Product (CHIRP) is a Level 1 radiance product derived from Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) on EOS-AQUA and the Cross-Track Infrared Sounders (CrIS) on the SNPP and JPSS-1+ platforms. (JPSS-1 is also called NOAA-20). CHIRP provides a consistent spectral response function (SRF) across all instruments. Inter-instrument radiometric offsets are removed with SNPP-CrIS chosen as the "standard". CHIRP follows the original instrument storage, i.e., granule in, granule out, and contains all information needed for retrievals (including cross-track, along-track, fov id, etc.). This version of CHIRP, SNDR13CHRP1, is the primary CHIRP product which provides a full radiance record from 2002 onwards starting with AIRS from September 1, 2002 to August 30, 2016, switching to the SNPP CrIS instrument on September 1, 2016. The SNDR13CHRP1 product then switches to using JPSS-1 CrIS radiances starting September 1, 2018. This selection of time periods provides the best match to times when the microwave sounders on each of these platforms exhibited good performance and avoids long outages (such as SNPP CrIS in early Spring 2019). CHIRP is available for AIRS, CrIS-SNPP, and CrIS-JPSS-1 for time periods not used in the product distributed here, and are named SNDR13CHRP1AQCal, SNDR13CHRP1SNCal, and SNDR13CHRP1J1Cal respectively.

RSS WindSat L1C Calibrated TB Version 8

The WindSat Polarimetric Radiometer, launched on January 6, 2003 aboard the Department of Defense Coriolis satellite, was designed to measure the ocean surface wind vector from space. It developed by the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) Remote Sensing Division and the Naval Center for Space Technology for the U.S. Navy and the National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS) Integrated Program Office (IPO). The dataset contains the Level 1C WindSat Top of the Atmosphere (TOA) TB processed by RSS. The WindSat radiances are turned into TOA TB after correction for hot and cold calibration anomalies, receiver non-linearities, sensor pointing errors, antenna cross-polarization contamination, spillover, Faraday rotation and polarization alignment. The data are resampled on a fixed regular 0.125 deg Earth grid using Backus-Gilbert Optimum Interpolation. The sampling is done separately for fore and aft looks. The 10.7, 18.7, 23.8, 37.0 GHz channels are resampled to the 10.7 GHz spatial resolution. The 6.8 GHz channels are given at their native spatial resolution. The 10.7, 18.7, 23.8, 37.0 GHz channels are absolutely calibrated using the GMI sensor as calibration reference. The 6.8 GHz channels are calibrated using the open ocean with the RSS ocean emission model and the Amazon rain forest as calibration targets. The Faraday rotation angle (FRA) and geometric polarization basis rotation angle (PRA) were added in the last run.

PREFIRE Level 1A Calibrated Spectral Radiance from PREFIRE Satellite 2 R01

PREFIRE (Polar Radiant Energy in the Far InfraRed Experiment) Level 1A Calibrated Spectral Radiance from PREFIRE Satellite 2 (PREFIRE_SAT2_1A-RAD) contains calibrated radiance data retrieved from data collected by the PREFIRE Thermal Infrared Spectrometer (TIRS-PREFIRE) aboard PREFIRE-SAT2. Dual CubeSats each carry a TIRS-PREFIRE, a push broom spectrometer with 63 channels measuring mid- and far-infrared (FIR) radiation from approximately 5 to 53 µm. Most polar emissions are in the FIR but have not been measured on a large scale. PREFIRE aims to fill knowledge gaps in the global energy budget by more accurately characterizing polar emissions. This information will then be assimilated into global circulation and other models to predict future conditions more accurately.Digital number counts from the PREFIRE_SAT2_0-PAYLOAD-TLM collection are converted to radiance and calibrated using an internal blackbody target and space-look data.The PREFIRE_SAT2_1A-RAD data are used as input for PREFIRE_SAT2_1B-RAD, which is geolocated radiance. Given that it is not geolocated, PREFIRE_SAT2_1A-RAD is not useful for direct scientific study.Science data retrieval for this collection started on June 29, 2024, and is ongoing. Geographic coverage is global, with the greatest concentration of data in the polar regions. These data have a temporal resolution of 0.707 seconds and is available in NetCDF-4.Calibrated radiance data for the sister instrument aboard PREFIRE-SAT1 can be found in the PREFIRE_SAT1_1A-RAD collection.
