SSM/I Daily Derived Products
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/22.059

Summary
Gridded data of retrieved: (1) column-integrated cloud liquid water (g/m2)
computed using a Weng algorithm, and with a spatial resolution of 0.25 x 0.25
degrees; (2)Column-integrated water vapor (gm/m2) using a Schlussel
algorithm;and (3)rainfall rates (mm/hr) from a Ferriday algorithm. Data are
from SSM/I instruments on multiple platforms. The values are on a rectangular
grid. Daily Gif images are included.
