The Version 1 of Goddard Satellite-Based Surface Turbulent Fluxes (GSSTF)
Data are produced by the surface
turbulent fluxes research group at NASA GSFC (Code 912), led by Dr.
Shu-Hsien Chou.
Currently, the Goddard DAAC maintains archives of three products (in binary
format) from this data set.The first two provide daily and monthly-mean,
global ocean, 2-degree latitude by 2.5-degree longitude, gridded surface
fluxes and other related parameters, from July 1987 through December 1994.
The third product provides the related 12 monthly-mean and one annual-mean
climatology. The Goddard DAAC will update this data set as new data are
processed and made available by the data producers.These data are available:
