Special Version of ISCCP DX Dataset From ScaRaB satellites
Sample Plots of Selected Variables Available Only in ISCCP-ScaRaB DX
Selected variables available only in the ISCCP-ScaRaB DX dataset are available here for display as JPEG images. The variables include both the cloud and surface radiative properties, retrieved from the ScaRaB VIS and IRW radiances using the ISCCP cloud detection and analysis algorithm. One day (May 1, 1994), daytime data are plotted for illustration purpose only.
