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
... includes the total (TOT), SW, LW, and window
(WN) channel radiometric data; SW, LW, and WN unfiltered radiance
values; and the ERBE scene identification for each measurement. These
data are organized according to the CERES 3.3-second scan into
6.6-second records. As long as there is one valid scanner measurement
within a record, the ES-8 record will be generated.
