TRMM TMI Daily Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/68.003

Summary
The TRMM TMI Data is one of several satellite data sets collected by the
National Center For Atmospheric Research/Earth Observing Laboratory (NCAR/EOL)
as part of the Dynamics and Chemistry of Marine Stratocumulus Phase II:
Entrainment Studies (DYCOMS-II) project. Daily retrievals from the Tropical
Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) of sea surface
temperature, surface wind speeds, atmospheric water vapor, liquid cloud water
and precipitation rates are included in this data set. The data cover the
period from 7 - 28 July 2001 and are in binary format on a 0.25 by 0.25 degree
grid. The data were acquired from Remote Sensing Systems
(http://www.ssmi.com/tmi_browse.html).
