HLY-08-03 TeraScan DMSP Satellite Data [Sambrotto/LDEO]

Project:

BEST

Summary

This dataset includes Defense Meteorological Satellites Program (DMSP) data from the SeaSpace TeraScan System. The data are from the F12, F13, F14, F15 and F16 DMSP satellites. The data are from the satellite passes that occurred over the Bering Sea during the US Coast Guard Cutter Healy Bering Sea Ecosystem Study-Bering Sea Integrated Ecosystem Research Program (BEST-BSIERP) 2008 0803 (summer) cruise. BEST-BSIERP together are the Bering Sea project. These files are in TeraScan Data format. The individual data files have been collected into tar files by day.
