L3C SMOS Sea Ice Thickness, Version 1
Data set id:
NSIDC-0688

Overview

The SMOS payload Microwave Imaging Radiometer using Aperture Synthesis (MIRAS) measures the brightness temperatures at 1.4 GHz in full polarization with incidence angles ranging from 0° to 65°. The sea ice thickness is derived from the near nadir brightness temperatures (L3B brightness temperature) using a single layer emissivity model.
