    "title": "Special Sensor Microwave Imager\/Sounder (SSMIS) Temperature Data Record (TDR) in netCDF",
    "description": "The Special Sensor Microwave Imager\/Sounder (SSMIS) is a series of passive microwave conically scanning imagers and sounders onboard the DMSP satellites beginning with F-16. SSMIS improves upon the surface and atmospheric retrievals of the previous Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM\/I), and upon the atmospheric temperature and water vapor sounding capabilities of both the Special Sensor Microwave Temperature Sounder (SSM\/T-1) and the Special Sensor Microwave Humidity Sounder (SSM\/T-2). The SSMIS imaging and sounding sensors are able to estimate atmospheric temperature, moisture, and surface parameters. This temperature data record (TDR) contains earth-located sets of SSMIS antenna temperatures since November 2005 that have been surface tagged, calibrated, Doppler corrected, cross polarization and spill-over corrected or APC corrected according to Earth surface type, averaged along scan and along the ground track. The data have been converted to netCDF 3-hourly files.",
