RSS MONTHLY 1-DEG MICROWAVE TOTAL PRECIPITABLE WATER NETCDF V7R01

The Remote Sensing Systems (RSS) Monthly 1-degree Microwave Total Precipitable Water (TPW) netCDF dataset V7R01 provides global total columnar water vapor values, or TPW, over ocean areas. This dataset contains monthly, 1-degree TPW means, a 12-month climatology made using 1988 to 2007 data, monthly anomaly maps, a trend map with associated global and tropical TPW time series and trends, and a time-latitude plot. The 1 degree TPW dataset is a merged ocean product constructed using version 7 (V7) passive microwave geophysical ocean products made publicly available by RSS (www.remss.com). TPW values for this dataset were acquired from the following satellite microwave radiometers: SSM/I F08 through F15, SSMIS F16 and F17, AMSR-E, AMSR-2, and WindSat. The radiometers used to construct this dataset were were inter-calibrated at the brightness temperature level, while the V7 ocean products were produced using a consistent processing methodology across sensors.

遥感系统（RSS）每月1度微波总可降水量（TPW）netCDF数据集V7R01，提供了全球海洋区域的总柱状水汽值，即TPW。该数据集包含每月的1度TPW平均值、基于1988至2007年数据的12个月份气候统计、月度异常图、关联的全球及热带TPW时间序列和趋势图，以及时间-纬度图。1度TPW数据集为由版本7（V7）被动微波地球物理海洋产品合并而成的海洋产品，这些产品由RSS（www.remss.com）公开发布。本数据集的TPW值来源于以下卫星微波辐射计：SSM/I F08至F15、SSMIS F16和F17、AMSR-E、AMSR-2和WindSat。构建本数据集所使用的辐射计在亮度温度水平上进行了相互校准，而V7海洋产品则是通过跨传感器的统一处理方法生产的。
