This repository is home to the access/importing of L2 Data Resources:
From this a consensus emerged on high level objective and secondary needs (L1/L2 system engineering requirements)
Study Area & Temporal Coverage:
- Time period 2011-present (forward stream)
- Start with VIIRS era (2012?)
- North and South Atlantic Ocean Basins (GOES-16)
5 sensors to blend from polar orbiting IR, MW and Geostationary IR using night+day, AM and PM orbits
- L2P S-NPP VIIRS (PM) [2012-Feb-01 to Present]
- L2P MetopB AVHRR (AM) [2012-Oct-19 to Present]
- L2P GCOM AMSR2 and realtime dataset (PM) [2012-Jul-2 to Present]
- L2P GOES-16 [2017-Dec-15 to Present]
- L2P SEVIRI (Metosat)
Reference SST is CMC L4
Reference is the ASTR/SLSTR series IR radiometers or in situ data SST adjusted using a diurnal warming model Motion compensation A global output vs. regional proof of concept
- Native geo-location retained for each pixel (no super obs)
- Re-Packing includes SST, Quality Level (3-5), SSES, Wind, and others
- Re-Packing includes flagged daytime screened SST using a wind speed (which one?)
NOTES: Daily 24 hour product as diurnal free as possible Reference is the ASTR/SLSTR series IR radiometers or in situ data
