EO:EUM:DAT:METOP:AMSUL1
AMSU-A Level 1B - Metop - GlobalThe Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AMSU-A) is a 15-channel microwave radiometer
that is used for measuring global atmospheric temperature profiles and will provide
information on atmospheric water in all of its phases (with the exception of small
ice particles, which are transparent at microwave frequencies). AMSU-A will provide
information even in cloudy conditions. AMSU-A measures Earth radiance at frequencies
(in GHz) as listed under the instrument channel information.
Metop-A data are available in the Data Centre up to 15/11/2021.
