NASA MEASURES Precipitation Ensemble based on SMMR Nimbus-7 NSIDC L1B Tbs 1-orbit L2 Swath 25x25km V1 (PRECIP_SMMR_NIMBUS7)
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR and NASA Data Portal — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.5067/measures/nimbus7/smmr/data201
The data presented in this level 2 orbital product are rain rate estimates expressed as mm/hour determined from brightness temperatures (Tbs) obtained from the Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) flown on the Nimbus-7 satellite.
Description
Most of the products generated in this data set are based upon the algorithms developed for the 3rd Algorithm Intercomparison Project (AIP-3) of the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP).
Details of these 15 algorithms and development of a quality score which is a measure of confidence in the estimate, along with processing and algorithmic flags, can be found in the Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document (ATBD). The data in this product cover the period from 1979 to 1987 with one file per orbit.
