Sentinel-6A MF Jason-CS L2 Advanced Microwave Radiometer (AMR-C) NRT Geophysical Parameters

Description

Provides L2 near real time (NRT; 3-hour latency) geophysical information from the Advanced Microwave Radiometer on the Sentinel-6A Michael Freilich spacecraft including surface type, wind speed, water vapor, brightness temperature, sigma0, wet troposphere, and associated quality flags. The data are interpolated to intervals that correspond to altimetry measurements from the Poseidon-4 SAR to supply the geophysical and environmental corrections for altimetry. The S6A NRT product is analogous to the Jason-3 OGDR product.
