Abstract

The ESA Climate Change Initiative Aerosol project has produced a number of global aerosol Essential Climate Variable (ECV) products from a set of European satellite instruments with different characteristics. This dataset comprises Level 3 daily and monthly gridded aerosol products from the AATSR instrument on ENVISAT, derived using the ORAC algorithm, version 4.01. Both daily and monthly gridded products are available

For further details about these data products please see the linked documentation.
