CLARA-A1: Cloud properties, surface albedo and surface radiation products based on AVHRR

Years of Record: 1982/01 to 2009/12

"CLARA-A1 (CLoud, Albedo and RAdiation dataset, AVHRR-based, version 1) is a global dataset of cloud properties, surface albedo and surface radiation products, generated by the EUMETSAT Satellite Application Facility on Climate Monitoring (CM SAF). The products are derived from measurements of the...
