14-Day Boxcar averaged Terra/CERES (Reflected Solar Radiation)

This animation displays one year of Reflected Solar Radiation (RSR) Terra/CERES data (March 1, 2000 to May 25, 2001) with a 14-day boxcar average. Endpoints have the average re-weighted for the smaller amount of data. The data are 2.5 degree resolution.
