2017 DSCOVR - CloudSat Coincident Data

This dataset includes netCDFs of coincident data from the CloudSat and DSCOVR satellites for 2017. The colocation of CloudSat profiles to EPIC pixels was done with a nearest neighbor approach, and a parallax correction (Wang and Huang, 2014) was applied to account for differences in viewing geometry. Coincident data is restricted to CloudSat profiles that are within 30 minutes of the EPIC image time, and between 60N and 60S latitude. A list of variables available in each netCDF is provided in the README. For questions, please contact Dr. Betsy Berry at [e-mail]
