Climate Data: ERB Data from NASA's CERES

This service provides Earth's Radiation Budget data products from NASA's Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) for your specified area of interest.

CERES data products describe the Earth Radiation Budget (ERB). You must provide an area of interest and then a start date and optional end date. Note that CERES data is available from 2002-07-01 onwards. For every day from the start to the end (inclusive), variations in hourly ERB are then output. The imagery is output as a GeoTIFF file representing surface downward shortwave flux. The GeoTIFF file has a resolution up-sampled to 10m. Further information about the CERES data can be accessed via here.
