A separate metadata file with a .xml file extension is also delivered to NSIDC with the HDF-EOS file, and it contains the same information as the core metadata. Three levels of QA are conducted with the AMSR-E Level 2 and 3 products: automatic, operational, and science. If a product does not fail QA, it is ready to be used for higher-level processing, browse generation, active science QA, archive, and distribution. If a granule fails QA, SIPS does not send the granule to NSIDC until it is reprocessed. Level-3 products that fail QA are never delivered to NSIDC (Conway 2002).These data are freely, openly, and fully accessible, provided that you are logged into your NASA Earthdata profile (https://urs.earthdata.nasa.gov/).These data are freely, openly, and fully available to use without restrictions, provided that you cite the data according to the recommended citation at https://nsidc.org/about/use_copyright.html.

The AMSR-E/Aqua Level-2B precipitation product includes instantaneous surface precipitation rate and type over ice-free/snow-free land and ocean between 89.24 degrees north and south latitudes at at 10 km spatial resolution along the track and 5 km spatial resolution along the scan. The data are generated by the GPROF 2010 Version 2 algorithm using Version 3 of the AMSR-E Level-2A Brightness Temperatures.VIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttps://doi.org/10.5067/AMSR-E/AE_RAIN.003DocumentationGET DATAhttps://n5eil01u.ecs.nsidc.org/AMSA/AE_Rain.003HTTPSGET DATAhttps://search.earthdata.nasa.gov/search?q=AE_Rain+V003Earthdata SearchGET RELATED VISUALIZATIONhttps://worldview.earthdata.nasa.gov/?p=geographic&l=BlueMarble_NextGeneration,AMSRE_Surface_Rain_Rate_Day,AMSRE_Surface_Precipitation_Rate_Night,AMSRE_Surface_Precipitation_Rate_Day,AMSRE_Surface_Rain_Rate_Night,Coastlines&t=2002-06-01WorldviewGET DATAhttps://nsidc.org/data/data-access-tool/AE_Rain/versions/3/Data Access ToolPROJECT HOME PAGEhttps://weather.msfc.nasa.gov/AMSR/NASA AMSR-E Web sitePROJECT HOME PAGEhttps://nsidc.org/data/amsre/indexAMSR-E/Aqua Data at NSIDCUSA/NASACEOS IDN DIFVERSION 9.92015-07-212023-11-29NSIDCVersion SummaryVersion 3 utilizes the GPROF 2010 Version 2 algorithm and Version 3 of the AMSR-E Level-2A Brightness Temperatures as input.
