Monthly 1-degree gridded data provides estimates of water vapor in the marine atmospheric boundary layer beneath uniform cloud fields. The dataset is derived by combining total column water vapor from AMSR-E and AMSR-2 microwave radiometers with above-cloud water vapor from MODIS near-infrared imagery. This difference method isolates the vapor between the ocean surface and cloud top for analysis of lower atmospheric conditions.
