Sample Plots of Selected Variables Available Only in ScaRaB A2

ScaRaB broadband SW and LW radiances, together with the ERBE-like Scene Identification determined from these two broadband radiances using ERBE Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE), are available here for display as JPEG images. One day (May 1, 1994), daytime data are plotted for illustration purpose only.

TOA Broadband Radiances

SW (0.2 - 4.0 um)	LW (4 - 50 um)

(Note that the radiances are plotted using the reported values in the ScaRaB A2 dataset. No adjustments are performed to account for the effects due to different Sun-Target-Satellite geometries at different locations.)
