RSS SSMIS OCEAN PRODUCT GRIDS MONTHLY AVERAGE FROM DMSP F16 NETCDF V7

The RSS SSMIS Ocean Product Grids Monthly Average from DMSP F16 netCDF dataset is part of the collection of Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) and Special Sensor Microwave Imager Sounder (SSMIS) data products produced as part of NASA's MEaSUREs Program. Remote Sensing Systems generates SSM/I and SSMIS binary data products using a unified, physically based algorithm to simultaneously retrieve ocean wind speed, water vapor, cloud water, and rain rate. The SSMIS data have been carefully intercalibrated to the brightness temperature level of the previous SSM/I and therefore extend this important time series of ocean winds, vapor, cloud and rain values. This algorithm is a product of 20 years of refinements, improvements, and verifications. The Global Hydrology Resource Center has reformatted the binary data into a netCDF data product for each temporal group for each satellite. The netCDF SSMI/SSMIS collection will be available for F16 for a monthly average.

DMSP F16网毯状SSMIS海洋产品月平均数据集（RSS SSMIS Ocean Product Grids Monthly Average from DMSP F16 netCDF dataset）属于美国国家航空航天局（NASA）MEaSUREs项目下生成的特殊传感器微波/成像仪（SSM/I）与特殊传感器微波成像仪辐射计（SSMIS）数据产品系列之一。遥感系统公司（Remote Sensing Systems）采用一种统一且基于物理原理的算法，同时提取海洋风速、水汽含量、云水含量和降雨率。SSMIS数据经过精心校准，与之前SSM/I的亮度温度水平相匹配，从而扩展了这一重要的海洋风速、水汽、云量和降雨值的时间序列。该算法是经过20年持续优化、改进和验证的成果。全球水文资源中心（Global Hydrology Resource Center）已将二进制数据重新格式化为每个卫星每个时间组的netCDF数据产品。netCDF格式的SSMI/SSMIS数据集将为F16卫星提供月平均数据。
