Abstract: Project: Hamburg Ocean Atmosphere Parameters and Fluxes from Satellite Data - For more information see http://www.hoaps.zmaw.de/ Summary: The Hamburg Ocean Atmosphere Parameters and Fluxes from Satellite Data (HOAPS) set is a completely satellite based climatology of precipitation, evaporation and freshwater budget (evaporation minus precipitation) as well as related turbulent heat fluxes and atmospheric state variables over the global ice free oceans. All variables are derived from SSM/I passive microwave radiometers, except for the SST, which...
