Description

Contains SABER Level 1 spectra that have been processed into vertical profiles of geophysical quantities on a uniform altitude grid. These vertical profiles are at the highest available horizontal and temporal resolution. Routine products include profiles of temperature (kelvin), pressure (milibars), CO2, O3, H2O, and the volume emission rates (ergs/cm^3/sec).
