Summary
Abstract: This data set consists of AVHRR retrievals of surface and cloud properties as well as radiative fluxes for the period 1982 - 1999 over the Arctic and Antarctic at a 25 km resolution. The images times are 1400 and 0400 (Arctic) or 0200 (Antarctic) local solar times. Resulsts are calculated on a twice-daily basis, but only monthly mean images and area-averaged values are currently online.
