CEOP Satellite Datasets ( Aqua > AMSR-E > 3WAVAP )

Three scale-types of datasets observed by new generation of remote sensing satellites (including TERRA, AQUA, ADEOS-II) in addition to TRMM and DMSP series, which were providing enhancement of observing capabilities to quantify critical atmospheric, surface, hydrologic and oceanographic data during CEOP time periods are available. 250 km square snapshots of the highest resolution raw radiances (with geographic location, i.e. level 1) remote sensing data at the 35-51 in situ reference sites are archived. ■Mission Aqua (formerly EOS PM-1) ・Applications 6-year nominal mission life, currently in extended operations. Atmosphericdynamics/water and energy cycles, cloudformation, precipitationand radiativeproperties, air/seafluxes of energy andmoisture, sea ice extentand heat exchange with the atmosphere. Option of 705km or 438km orbit altitude. ■Instrument Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-EOS ・Instrument Type Imaging multi-spectral radiometers (passive microwave) ・Measurements & Applications Measurements of water vapour, cloud liquid water, precipitation, winds, sea surface temperature, sea ice concentration, snow cover and soil moisture ■Instrument Measurements ・Product Level L3 ・Product Code 3WAVAP ・Description Water vapor

本数据集涵盖除热带降雨测量任务（TRMM）与国防气象卫星计划（DMSP）系列卫星外，新一代遥感卫星（包括TERRA、AQUA、ADEOS-II）所观测获取的三类尺度数据集。这些卫星在CEOP（国际协调强化观测期）期间提升了观测能力，可用于量化关键的大气、地表、水文与海洋学相关数据。35至51个原位参考站点处的最高分辨率原始辐射遥感数据（附带地理位置信息，即Level 1一级数据）的250千米见方快照已完成归档存储。
