attribute NC_GLOBAL summary String This data set provides a passive microwave sea ice concentration climate data record (CDR) based on gridded brightness temperatures (TBs) from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) series of passive microwave radiometers: the Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) and the Special Sensor Microwave Imager/Sounder (SSMIS). The sea ice concentration CDR is an estimate of sea ice concentration that is produced by combining concentration estimates from two algorithms developed at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC): the NASA Team algorithm and the Bootstrap algorithm. The individual algorithms are processed and combined at National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) using brightness temperature data from Remote Sensing Systems, Inc. (RSS). This product is designed to provide a consistent time series of sea ice concentrations (the fraction, or percentage, of ocean area covered by sea ice) from 1987 to the present which spans the coverage of several passive microwave instruments. The data are gridded on the NSIDC polar stereographic grid with 25 x 25 km grid cells, and are available in Network Common Data Format (NetCDF) file format. Each file contains a variable with the CDR concentration values as well as variables that hold the input NASA Team and Bootstrap concentrations for reference and a merged NASA Team/Bootstrap version of the Goddard sea ice concentrations that spans 1978 to the present made available as a longer-term analog of the CDR concentrations. Variables containing standard deviation, quality flags, and projection information are also included. Data are available via FTP. (north seaice monthly)
