ESA Sea Surface Temperature Climate Change Initiative (SST_cci): Along-Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR) Level 2 Preprocessed (L2P) Climate Data Record, version 2.1
type: Dataset
access rights: Public data: access to these data is available to both registered and non-registered users. http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/metadata-codelist/LimitationsOnPublicAccess/noLimitations
description: This v2.1 SST_cci Along-Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR) Level 2 Preprocessed (L2P) Climate Data Record (CDR) consists of stable, low-bias sea surface temperature (SST) data from the ATSR series of satellite instruments. It covers the period between 11/1991 and 04/2012. This L2P product provides these SST data on the original satellite swath with a single orbit of data per file.The dataset has been produced as part of the European Space Agency (ESA) Climate Change Initiative Sea Surface Temperature project(ESA SST_cci). The data products from SST_cci accurately map the surface temperature of the global oceans over the period 1981 to 2016 using observations from many satellites. The data provide independently quantified SST's to a quality suitable for climate research.This CDR Version 2.1 product supercedes the CDR Version 2.0 product.
