MODIS/Terra Sea Ice Extent Daily L3 Global 1km EASE-Grid Night V061

Metadata Updated: March 24, 2025

This global Level-3 (L3) data set provides daily nighttime ice surface temperature derived from the 'MODIS/Terra Sea Ice Extent 5-Min L2 Swath 1km' (https://doi.org/10.5067/MODIS/MOD29.061) product. Each data granule is a tile consisting of 10 x 10 degrees of data gridded to the Lambert Azimuthal Equal Area Scalable Earth Grid (EASE-Grid).

The terms "Version 61" and "Collection 6.1" are used interchangeably in reference to this release of MODIS data.
