AIRS/Aqua L3 Monthly Support Product (AIRS+AMSU+HSB) 1 degree x 1 degree V006 (AIRH3SPM) at GES DISC

The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) is a grating spectrometer (R = 1200) aboard the second Earth Observing System (EOS) polar-orbiting platform, EOS Aqua. In combination with the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) and the Humidity Sounder for Brazil (HSB), AIRS constitutes an innovative atmospheric sounding group of visible, infrared, and microwave sensors. The L3 support products are similar to the L3 standard products but contain fields which are not fully validated, or are inputs or intermediary values. Because no quality control information is available for some of these fields, values from failed retrievals may be included.

大气红外探测器（AIRS）是搭载在第二地球观测系统（EOS）极地轨道平台EOS Aqua上的衍射光栅光谱仪（R = 1200）。与高级微波探测单元（AMSU）以及巴西湿度探测器（HSB）相结合，AIRS构成了一个创新的可见光、红外和微波大气探测组合。L3级支持产品与L3级标准产品相似，但包含部分尚未完全验证的字段，或为输入或中间值。由于某些字段缺乏质量控制信息，可能包含失败的检索值。
