SST CCI Auxiliary Datasets

These are the auxiliary datasets used in the production of the ESA Climate Change Initiative (CCI) Sea Surface Temperature (SST) Climate Data Record (CDR) version 3.
Retrieval coefficients
Files starting 'ARCCoef' contain the retrieval coefficients used for the dual-view ATSR and SLSTR instruments.
Probability Density Functions
Files starting 'BayesPDF' contain the probability density function (PDF) lookup tables used for cloud detection.
Sea Surface Emissivity
ASCII tables of sea surface emissivity used for cloud detection (ATSR, SLSTR, and AVHRR sensors) and optimal estimation retrieval of SST (AVHRR sensors).
