Uniform format for all satellites. • Ice/Snow Data Set (IS) • Resolution: 150km equal-area grid, 5-days, global • Contents: 5-day averages of snow and sea ice fractional coverage deduced from ship/shore station reports and satellite visible, infrared, and microwave imagery data.

  6. ISCCP Data Products (Page2) • Pixel Level Cloud Product • Resolution: 30km mapped pixel, 3 hr, • Contents: Calibrated radiances, cloud detection results, cloud and surface properties from radiative analysis • Gridded Cloud Product • Resolution: 280km equal-area grid, 3hr, global • Contents: Spatial averages quantities and statistical summaries, including properties of cloud types. Satellites are merged into a global grid.

  7. Cloud and Surface Properties • IR-retrieved cloud top or surface temperature • IR-retrieved cloud top or surface pressure • IR-retrieved clear sky composite temperature • IR-retrieved clear sky composite pressure • VIS-retrieved liquid cloud optical depth or surface reflectance • VIS-retrieved clear sky composite reflectance • VIS-adjusted cloud top temperature • VIS-adjusted cloud top pressure • VIS-retrieved-ice cloud optical depth VIS-retrieved-ice cloud temperature • VIS-retrieved-ice cloud pressure

  8. ISCCP Data Products (Page 3) • Climatological Summary Product (FD-TOA) • Resolution: 280km equal-area grid, 3hr, global • Contents: All the radiative flux components at top of atmosphere (TOA). Total of 20 output parameters. • Climatological Summary Product (FD-SRF) • Resolution: 280km equal-area grid, 3hr, global • Contents: All the radiative flux components at surface (SRF). Total of 25 output parameters.

  9. Experimental Global Products • Microwave Emissivities (ISCCP cloud and infrared-based surface temperatures are combined with SSM/I brightness temperatures to separate and retrieve land surface skin temperatures (clear and cloudy) and the emissivities in the seven SSM/I channels. • monitoring freeze/thaw events at higher latitudes • variation of snow cover properties • soil wetness. • Ts-Ta Correlation Reports Combining the infrared-microwave land skin temperatures with conventional meteorological datasets to obtain collocated information about surface skin and air temperatures, air humidity and winds over the whole globe with diurnal resolution. With other datasets characterizing the additional land surface properties (topography, roughness, vegetation type), • Surface heat flux. • Combined with the surface net radiation (FD product), estimates of latent heat fluxes can also be made.
