Daily sample of AIRX2STC ascending granules.
The AIRS Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Standard Retrieval Product (AIRX2STC) consists of retrieved estimates of CO2, plus estimates of the errors associated with the retrieval.
In contrast to the rest of Level 2 products originally released, the CO2 Level2 products are at 90x90 km nominal horizontal resolution at nadir. AIRS CO2, Level 2, granules have been set as 6 minutes of data, 15 footprints cross track by 22 lines along track.
Note that this is exclusively climate-change oriented parameter, with variability on seasonal scales, and strong global annual growing trend. Thus, as seen in the figure, daily retrievals are relatively sparse and have little statistical significance until aggregated to e.g. monthly CO2 product, AIRX3C2M.
