Cross calibration is performed by Remote Sensing Systems (RSS) under the DISCOVER project [http://www.remss.com/]. These data sets are combined with conventional observations and a starting estimate of the wind field using a variational analysis method (VAM). The ECMWF Reanalysis (ERA-40) is used as the starting estimate (or background) for July 1987 until December 1998 and the ECMWF Operational Analysis is used from January 1999 onward. CCMP is provided by the NASA PO.DAAC and has been evaluated and utilized extensively by the science community, including some members of NASA's Ocean Vector Winds Science Team (OVWST). onGoing datahelp@ucar.edu pointOfContact irregular dataset NetCDF dataset Resource Type 2021-03-30 revision 4.4 DataCite Metadata Working Group orginator resourceTypeGeneral QUIKSCAT > QUIKSCAT ADEOS-II > Advanced Earth Observing Satellite-II U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-02-27 revision 23.4 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Platforms SCATTEROMETERS > SCATTEROMETERS U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-02-27 revision 23.4 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Instruments EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > OCEAN WINDS > SURFACE WINDS U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-02-27 revision 23.4 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Science and Services Keywords Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License None grid 0.25 eng utf-8 oceans -180.0 180.0 -78.375 78.375 1987-07-01T0000+00 2011-12-27T0000+00 NSF NCAR Geoscience Data Exchange datahelp@ucar.edu https://gdex.ucar.edu distributor 137194.437 https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d744009/ https Dataset Description Related Link information https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d744009/dataaccess/ https Data Access Related Link download none asNeeded
