Data Information

Title:: derived CERES EBAF Radiation

Source_file:: This product is generated from monthly 1 degree CERES EBAF Radiation observations

Conventions:: Please contact Prof. James Randerson (Email: jranders@uci.edu) or Dr. Mingquan Mu (mmu@uci.edu) for any question

Creation_date:: Thu May 8 23:27:16 PDT 2014

Approach:: I simply read this variable (sfc_sw_up_all_mon: surface all-sky upward shortwave radiation) from original netcdf data file. Meanwhile, the data were also binned from original 1.0x1.0 resolution to final 0.5x0.5 resolution.

Temporal resolution:: monthly

General information:: This product was derived from CERES EBAF radiation dataset.

Spatial resolution:: 0.5x0.5 degree

Derived data code:: http://redwood.ess.uci.edu/mingquan/www/ILAMB/Download/CODES/CODES/subroutines/convert/convert-radiation-ceres.ncl
