Surface Radiation Budget (SRB) Release 2.5 Longwave 3 hourly Data in Native Format (SRB_REL2.5_LW_3HRLY)

The SRB data include upward and downward fluxes and day/night conditions measured at three hourly intervals for each day for the entire globe between 07/01/1983 and 06/30/2005. These LW surface and Top of the Atmosphere (TOA) radiative parameters were derived with the Longwave algorithm of the NASA World Climate Research Programme/Global Energy and Water-Cycle Experiment (WCRP/GEWEX) Surface Radiation Budget (SRB) Project.
