Sounder SIPS: Suomi NPP CrIS Level 3 Climate Fingerprinting Sounder Product (ClimFiSP) Monthly: Gridded Atmosphere, Cloud, and Surface Geophysical State V2
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR and NASA Data Portal — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.5067/oo4x2xo5wg38
The Climate Fingerprinting Sounder Product (ClimFiSP) Version 2 provides Level 3 daily and monthly atmospheric data including temperature profiles, water vapor, ozone, cloud properties, as well as surface properties, including skin temperature and emissivity.
Description
Data are available on a ½ by ½ degree grid. These geophysical variables are derived, via the ClimFiSP retrieval algorithm, from the Climate Hyperspectral Infrared Radiance Product (CHIRP), a Level 1 radiance product that harmonizes measurements from three different infrared sounding instruments: the AIRS sensor on EOS-Aqua and the CrIS sensors on the Suomi-NPP and NOAA-20 (JPSS-1) satellites.
All three platforms follow similar sun-synchronous orbits, with CLIMFISP daily records including data for both the ascending (1:30 p.m.) and descending (1:30 a.m.) orbit passes. ClimFISP retrievals derived from each instrument are provided separately to facilitate detection of potential radiance biases between the CHIRP-AIRS and CHIRP-CrIS data records, and to evaluate their impact on the long-term data record formed by merging AIRS and CrIS data.
