AIRS/Aqua L3 Monthly Support Product (AIRS-only) 1 degree x 1 degree V006 (AIRS3SPM) 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.

大气红外探测仪（AIRS）搭载于地球观测系统（EOS）的第二颗极地轨道平台EOS Aqua之上，是一款具有1200倍光谱分辨率的衍射光栅光谱仪。与高级微波探测单元（AMSU）及巴西湿度探测仪（HSB）协同工作，AIRS构成了一个集可见光、红外和微波传感器于一体的创新大气探测系统。L3支持产品与L3标准产品相似，但包含了一些尚未完全验证的领域，或为输入或中间值。鉴于某些这些领域缺乏质量控制信息，可能包含失败检索的值。
