MLS/Aura Level 2 Hydroperoxy (HO2) Mixing Ratio V005 (ML2HO2) at GES DISC
ML2HO2 is the EOS Aura Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) standard product for hydroperoxy derived from radiances measured in two bands from the 640 GHz radiometer. The data version is 5.0. Spatial coverage is near-global (-82 degrees to +82 degrees latitude), with each profile spaced 1.5 degrees or ~165 km along the orbit track (roughly 15 orbits per day). The recommended useful vertical range is from 21.5 to 0.0464 hPa, and the vertical resolution is about 5 km. Users of the ML2HO2 data product should read section 3.13 of the EOS MLS Level 2 Version 5 Quality Document for more information.The data are stored in the version 5 EOS Hierarchical Data Format (HDF-EOS5), which is based on the version 5 Hierarchical Data Format, or HDF-5. Each file contains two swath objects (profile and column data), each with a set of data and geolocation fields, swath attributes, and metadata.
