TROPOMI/Sentinel-5P Near UV Aerosol Optical Depth and Single Scattering Albedo L2 1-Orbit Snapshot 7.5 km x 3 km

As part of the NASA's Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) program, this projects describes a multi-decadal Fundamental Climate Data Record (FCDR) of calibrated radiances as well as an Earth System Data Record (ESDR) of aerosol properties over the continents derived from a 32-year record of satellite near-UV observations by three sensors. The Corpenicus Sentinel-5P TROPOMI Near UV (version 1) Aerosol Optical Depth and Single Scattering Albedo data product consists of aerosol absorption optical depth, aerosol total optical depth, aerosol layer height, aerosol UV index, and aerosol single scattering albedo at approximately 7.5kmx3km. This product also contains ancillary data for ocean corrected surface albedo and terrain pressure. Data since July 19, 2022 (orbit 24688) has been processed with the most recent calibrated L1B radiance data (version 2.0.1). Data prior to July 19, 2022, data was processed with version 2.0.0 L1B radiances. Soon, the entire record will be reprocessed using version 2.0.1 L1B data. Any upgrades will be posted here. These Level-2 data are stored in the NetCDF-4 format and are available from the Goddard Earth Sciences (GES) Data and Information Services Center (DISC).
