Dataset
EOCIS: CHUK Aerosol Optical Depth, Monthly L3C Product, v1.14
Abstract
This dataset contains Climate High resolution UK (CHUK) Aerosol Optical Depth data produced within the Earth Observation Climate Information Service (EOCIS) project.
These data are derived from Swansea University Global Aerosol retrievals (v1.14) for the Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometers (SLSTR) on the Sentinel-3A and Sentinel-3B satellites. Original level 2 retrievals in the UK region have been re-projected from the instrument swath onto the Climate High-resolution grid for the UK at 100m resolution and composited on a monthly timescale. They contain the aerosol optical depth and the fine-mode aerosol optical depth at 550nm. Two versions of each variable are included: with and without the post-processing filtering that is used in the global dataset.
