Aqua/AIRS L3 Daily Support Product (AIRS+AMSU) 1 degree x 1 degree V7.0 at GES DISC

Description

The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) is a grating spectrometer (R = 1200) aboard the second Earth Observing System (EOS) polar-orbiting platform, EOS Aqua. In combination with the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) AIRS constitutes an innovative atmospheric sounding group of infrared and microwave sensors. The L3 support products are similar to the L3 standard products but contain fields which are not fully validated, or are inputs or intermediary values. The value for each grid box is the sum of the values that fall within the 1x1 area divided by the number of points in the box.
