GHRSST Level 2P USA NASA MODIS Aqua SST:1

Description

The production of the MODIS L2P data is a joint collaboration between JPL, OBPG and RSMAS. RSMAS is responsible for sea surface temperature algorithm development, error statistics and quality flagging, while the OBPG is NASA ground data system for production of daily MODIS ocean products in HDF file format. JPL acquires MODIS ocean granules from the OBPG and reformats them to the GHRSST L2P specification with complete metadata. Data consists of global coverage at 1 km resolution with approximately 288 five minute observation granules per day. For nighttime data both SST from the 11 and 4 um bands are available. Ocean chlorophyll and K490 diffuse attenuation coefficient are also available for daytime periods as non standard L2P core fields.
