Aquarius Level 3 sea surface salinity data provides a gridded, 1-degree spatial resolution monthly climatology product derived from ascending satellite passes. This version 5.0 dataset represents the official end-of-mission public release from the NASA/CONAE AQUARIUS/SAC-D satellite mission, which operated three radiometers and a scatterometer for salinity retrieval. The data is available across multiple government platforms, indicating its established role in climate and ocean science.
License is unclear due to conflicting metadata ('other-license-specified' vs. 'None'). The dataset is specifically a monthly climatology from ascending passes only, not including descending passes or raw instantaneous measurements.
