Near-Real-Time AMSR2 EASE-Grid Daily Global Ice Concentration and Snow Extent V001
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
The Near-real-time Ice and Snow Extent (NISE) Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) data set provides daily, global maps of sea ice concentrations and snow extent.
Description
The data provides a best estimate of current ice and snow conditions based on information and algorithms available at the time the data are acquired. Near-real-time products are not intended for operational use in assessing sea ice conditions for navigation.
