Global Oceanic Precipitation from the Microwave Sounding Unit
Listed in National Center for Atmospheric Research
This dataset contains daily and monthly oceanic precipitation analyses on a 2.5-degree global grid.
Description
The data were constructed from the Microwave Sounding Units of seven TIROS-N series satellites, as described in Spencer (1993, J. Climate). Data are available for the period between January 1979 and May 1994.
The daily data are considered to be not as reliable as the monthly data. Before using the daily data, it is highly recommended that you read the documentation associated with it.
