FLASHFlux Data |
The Fast Longwave And SHortwave Radiative Fluxes (FLASHFlux) project produces near real-time surface and Top of Atmosphere (TOA) radiative fluxes which are important for understanding the impact of changes to the Earth's surface and the state of the atmosphere. FLASHFlux can be processed either with the CERES Terra instruments FM1 or FM2 typically in the crosstrack scan mode. Thus, the user should allow for the possibility that a combination of CERES FM1 and CERES FM2 data may be required to obtain all the Terra CERES data for a given time period. Currently, only Terra CERES FM1 is being processed. FLASHFlux will process only the CERES Aqua FM3 data. The FLASHFlux data products are written in HDF format.
