JASON-1 ENHANCED JASON MICROWAVE RADIOMETER
(JASON-1_JMR_ENH)| Version | 1 |
| Processing Level | 2 |
| Start/Stop Date | 2002-Jan-15 to 2012-Feb-11 |
| Short Name | JASON-1_JMR_ENH |
| Description | The enhanced Jason-1 Microwave Radiometer (JMR) corrections contains better wet tropospheric path delay corrections along with better land, rain and ice flagging for coastal regions than that found in the Jason-1 Geophysical Data Records (GDR). The enhanced corrections can be used in place of the GDR wet troposphere correction to provide more accurate Sea Surface Height Anomalies for coastal regions. |
