Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) Products on the Aquarius WebsiteAquarius has produced maps of salinity by measuring Earth’s natural emissions at L-band. However, measurements made by its instruments are affected by the presence of Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). For this reason, RFI detection algorithms had been implemented, both for the radiometer and the scatterometer, in order to reduce the impact of RFI on science data. In an effort to improve understanding of L-band RFI, the Aquarius mission has generated a new series of products. This contribution presents how these products were produced as well as the information that they contain. These products will be available starting at the end of January 2018 on the Aquarius website.
