[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: The ES-8 archival data product contains a 24-hour, single-satellite,
instantaneous view of scanner fluxes at the top-of-atmosphere (TOA)
reduced from spacecraft altitude unfiltered radiances using Earth
Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) scanner Inversion algorithms and
the ERBE shortwave (SW) and longwave (LW) Angular Distribution Models
(ADMs). The ES-8 also ...
