SatCORPS CERES GEO Edition 4 Himawari-9 Northern Hemisphere Version 1.2

CER_GEO_Ed4_HIM09_NH_V01.2 is the Satellite Cloud and Radiation Property retrieval System (SatCORPS) Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) Geostationary Satellite (GEO) Edition 4 Himawari-9 over the Northern Hemisphere (NH) Version 1.2 data product. Data was collected using the Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) Instrument on the Himawari-9 platform. Note: Version 1.2 is identical to version 1.0. No changes have been made to the retrieval algorithm. This data set comprises cloud micro-physical and radiation properties derived hourly from Himawari-9 geostationary satellite imager data using the Langley Research Center (LaRC) SATCORPS algorithms supporting the CERES project. The data set is arranged as files for each hour in netCDF-4 format. The observations are at 2 km resolution (at nadir) and are sub-sampled to 6 km (taking every third line and pixel).
