NASA's Aquarius satellite, a joint mission with Argentina's CONAE, produced this Level 3 dataset by measuring ocean brightness temperature at 1.413 GHz. It provides a 28-day running mean of sea surface 'spiciness', a water mass property, at a 1-degree spatial resolution using only ascending pass data. The dataset is derived from three push-broom radiometers with a combined 370 km swath, corrected for surface roughness by a co-located 1.26 GHz scatterometer.
