MODIS Sea Ice and Ice Surface Temperature
Overview
These Level 2 and 3 products provide sea ice IST, or ice surface temperture, at 1-km (Level 2) and 0.5° (Level 3) resolutions over the global oceans. In addition, a quality-assessment parameter is included for each pixel. The Level 2 product is produced daily and consists of global day and night coverage every 24 hours.
