Wind, Metop-A ASCAT, 0.25°, Global, Near Real Time, 2009-present (8 Day)
NOAA CoastWatch distributes near real time wind data originating with wind velocity measurements from the ASCAT instrument onboard EUMETSAT's Metop-A satellite. ASCAT is a microwave scatterometer designed to measure surface winds over the global ocean. Wind velocity is processed to wind divergence by NOAA CoastWatch. (This is an 8 day composite.)
