    "title": "NOAA Climate Data Record (CDR) of IR Sounder Upper Tropospheric Humidity BT, Version 4.0",
    "description": "This dataset covers the IR Sounder Upper Trop Humidity BT CDR that is based on the high-Resolution Infrared Sounder (HIRS) suite of intersatellite calibrated channel 12 brightness temperature (BT) and from the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) measurement that is used to derive equivalent HIRS channel 12 BT. The channel is designed to measure upper tropospheric humidity. Cloud-screening is performed and clear-sky pixels are used to generate the product. The time series has a global coverage in monthly 2.5x2.5 degree latitude\/longitude from 1978 to the present. It is developed at NCEI as version 4.0. The data are in NetCDF format, with a total volume of approximately 25 MB.",
