CDRs for NCDC

Project Title

Production of Mean Layer Temperature CDR and SSMI and SSMIS Brightness Temperature FCDR, PI: Carl Mears

Focus of this work

The purpose of this project is to continue production of the current versions of Climate Data Records (CDRs) for archiving at the National Climatic Data Center.  A version of the MSU/AMSU Upper Air Temperature datasets and the SSMI and SSMIS brightness temperature datasets are available in netcdf4 with CF-compliant metadata at the National Climatic Data Center.
