Description
Summary:This data set offers users a 25 km daily record of surface/near-surface melting on the Greenland Ice Sheet. The presence of melting is determined from brightness temperature data acquired by three satellite-borne microwave radiometers: the Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR), the Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I), and the Special Sensor Microwave Imager/Sounder (SSMIS). Included in this archive are files for the June-July-August (JJA) summer months during 1980-2022, formatted as a separate file for each year. Version 1.1 includes data for 2021-2022 to supplement the original 1980-2020 dataset from version 1. Version 1.1.1 corrects the 2022 file to include data for 2022-08-24 that was missing in version 1.1.
