L2 Solar-Induced Fluorescence (SIF) from SCIAMACHY, 2003-2012

Published by ORNL_DAAC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Metadata Last Checked: January 31, 2026 | Last Modified: 2026-01-27

This dataset provides Level 2 (L2) Solar-Induced Fluorescence (SIF) of chlorophyll estimates derived from the SCanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CartograpHY (SCIAMACHY) instrument on the European Space Agency's (ESA's) Environmental satellite (Envisat) with ~0.5 nm spectral resolution and wavelengths between 734 and 758 nm. SCIAMACHY covers global land between approximately 70 and -57 degrees latitude on an orbital basis at a resolution of approximately 30 km x 240 km. Data are provided for the period from 2003-01-01 to 2012-04-08. Each file contains daily raw and bias-adjusted solar-induced fluorescence along with quality control information and ancillary data.
