The instantaneous observations from the FIDUCEO Microwave FCDR are used to derive a spatio-temporal averaged data record, which contains monthly mean UTH and brightness temperature mapped to a regular latitude/longitude grid covering the tropical region (-30° to 30° N), with a spatial resolution of 1° x 1°. It covers all mission years of the Special Senson Microwave for Temperature (SSMT2) instrument on the F11, F12, F14, F15 satellites, the Advanced Mircowave Sounding Unit (AMSU-B ) instrument on the NOAA 15-17 satellites and the Microwave Humidity Sounder (MHS) instruments on the NOAA18, NOAA19, MetopA, Metop-B satellites.
