Nimbus Temperature-Humidity Infrared Radiometer 11.5 µm Remapped Digital Data Daily L3, GeoTIFF V001

This data set (NmTHIR115-3G) consists of daily, global composites of radiative temperatures obtained in the 11.5 µm window (10.5 µm - 12.5 µm) by the Temperature-Humidity Infrared Radiometer (THIR) on board the Nimbus 4 satellite. This window was used to measure cloud top or surface temperatures. Data files are GeoTIFF versions of the HDF-formatted equatorial projection file only from the Nimbus Temperature-Humidity Infrared Radiometer 11.5 µm Remapped Digital Data Daily L3, HDF5 (NmTHIR115-3H) data set.
