Global atmospheric profiles are derived from the Suomi NPP satellite's CrIS/ATMS instruments using the CLIMCAPS algorithm. The dataset includes full-atmosphere profiles of temperature, water vapor, ozone, and trace gases like carbon monoxide and methane, alongside surface and cloud properties. Data is provided as Level 2 granules, each representing a 6-minute observation window.
