    • Aqua/AIRS L3 Monthly Support Product (AIRS-only) 1 degree x 1 degree V7.0 at GES DISC

    Metadata Updated: August 13, 2024

    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) and the Humidity Sounder for Brazil (HSB), AIRS constitutes an innovative atmospheric sounding group of visible, 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. Because no quality control information is available for some of these fields, values from failed retrievals may be included.

    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.
