It also includes column-averaged water vapour (H2O), a scale factor for the HDO volume mixing ratio profile, surface temperature, effective cloud fraction, effective cloud-top pressure and scale factors for two systematic residual spectra which are jointly retrieved from the spectral range 1232.25-1290.00 cm-1. Also contains selected a priori values and uncertainties. Funded by NCEO.

This NCEO dataset contains cloud optical depth, aerosol optical depth (cloud free), cloud phase, cloud particle size, cloud top pressure, cloud fraction and cloud ice/water path along with associated error measurements. GRAPE aimed to produce a global cloud and aerosol dataset of the entire Along Track Scanning Radiometer 2 (ATSR-2) mission.

NCEO dataset of ozone profiles from radiances measured by the Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME) on-board the European Remote Sensing - 2 (ERS-2) satellite; includes total column ozone, column BrO, and column NO2, with cloud heights derived from the Along Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR) included to aid interpretation of the ozone profiles.

A set of example output from the SLIMCAT chemical transport model that includes 3D global fields of stratospheric and tropospheric chemical (and sometimes meteorological) variables as computed for twelve dates in 1997, near the middle of each month.

This NCEO dataset contains atmospheric profiles from the Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS) on Envisat, processed with the Oxford L2 retrieval algorithm MORSE; differs from ESA's L2 products as it uses an optimal estimation approach, rather than regularised least squares fit, and has additional molecules.

Provides level 2 and level 3 total ozone data products, Nadir ozone profile products and Limb ozone profile products from many EO sensors. Notably the new level-2 total ozone data sets from GOME, SCIAMACHY and GOME-2/Metop-A have been reprocessed with the latest GODFIT-3 algorithm, producing data sets that are unprecedented in terms of standards of consistency, stability and accuracy.

Provides data products for near-surface-sensitive dry-air column-averaged mole fractions (mixing ratios) of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4), generated from SCIAMACHY on ENVISAT and TANSO-FTS onboard GOSAT.

The latest / best and most complete + validated aerosol datasets. All datasets cover at least the “golden year” of the Aerosol_cci products: 2008. In addition, for mature products from sensors with predecessor instruments (i. e. ATSR-2 for AATSR) an additional dataset for the year 2000 is provided. A complete time series is provided for one algorithm for AATSR (Swansea algorithm, version 4.1; 2002 – 2012). All products provide global coverage except at high latitudes and in some cases except deserts; 2 products cover only ocean; three products are flagged as experimental since they require significant further development (BAER, ESA MERIS-standard, SYNAER).

Provides SST products from ATSRs, AVHRRs and a gap-filled blend of these products, intended to have high temporal stability for climate research, and derived independently of in situ SST measurements (giving an independent estimate of marine change).

Provides ocean colour products derived by merging satellite data from sensors MERIS, MODIS and SeaWiFS, after shifting the wavelength bands and correcting the bias among the sensors.
