Suomi-NPP VIIRS Level-3 Global Binned Triple-window Sea Surface Temperature (SST3) Data, version 2016.2
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
SST_triple provides sea surface temperature retrieved with a triple-window thermal-infrared algorithm that combines three atmospheric “windows” (typically near 8.6 µm, 11 µm, and 12 µm) to better correct for water-vapor effects compared with standard split-window SST.
Description
Geophysical variables in this suite include: - sst_triple — Triple-window Sea Surface Temperature (°C) - qual_sst_triple — Quality levels for SST_triple (integer quality flag)
