Global AMSR Sea Ice Concentration - GCOM-W1

Abstract:
The High Latitude Level 3 Global AMSR Sea Ice Concentration consists of these major fields: Sea ice concentration - Indicates the fraction of a given ocean grid point covered by ice. Uncertainties - The algorithm uncertainty, the smearing uncertainty and the resulting total uncertainty of each sea ice concentration grid cell. Confidence level - Based on the daily standard deviation within each grid cell, provided as a guide. This product is complementary to the SSMIS global sea ice concentration product (OSI-401-b).
