Summary

Abstract: AIRS/Aqua Level 3 pentad quantization product in physical units (With HSB).

The quantization products (QP) are distributional summaries derived from the Level-2 standard retrieval products (of swath type) to provide a more comprehensive set of statistical summaries than the traditional means and standard deviation. The QP products combine the Level 2 standard data parameters ...
