CALIPSO CALIOP Regional Particulate Backscattering Coefficient (Bbp) Data, version 1
https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C3574826988-OB_CLOUD.xmlDescription:This BBP data suite provides regional estimates of the particulate backscattering coefficient, bbp(532 nm) (units: m⁻¹) derived from the CALIOP lidar aboard CALIPSO. CALIOP’s active 532-nm channel enables nighttime and high-latitude retrievals where passive ocean-color sensors are often limited, and published evaluations show that space-lidar bbp is a strong complement to ocean color and in situ float observations for upper-ocean optical and biogeochemical studies. Typical uses include time-series analysis of particulate optics, high-latitude/seasonal studies, and providing independent constraints for algorithms that link bbp to carbon stocks or phytoplankton dynamics. Users should note CALIOP’s limited subsurface penetration (~a few optical depths) and apply the product’s recommended screening (day/night, quality flags) before analysis. Geophysical variables in this suite include: • bbp – Particulate backscattering coefficient at 532 nm (m⁻¹)

CALIPSO IIR Level 1 Calibration Correction data
https://cmr.earthdata.nasa.gov/search/concepts/C3964848737-LARC_CLOUD.xmlDescription:CAL_IIR_L1_COR-Standard-V3-00 is the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) Infrared ImagingRadiometer (IIR) Level 1 Calibration Correction, Version 3-00 data product. The IIR calibration data product contains semi-empirical corrections that were applied to compute the earth view calibrated radiances reported in the Level 1B product. CALIPSO was a partnership between NASA and the French Space Agency, CNES. CALIPSO was launched on April 28, 2006, to study the many roles clouds and aerosols play in Earth’s climate and weather. It flew in the international A-Train constellation for coincident Earth observations from launch until September 13, 2018, when CALIPSO began lowering its orbit from 705 km to 688 km (428 miles) above the Earth to resume formation flying with CloudSat as part of the “C-Train.” The CALIPSO satellite carried three remote sensing instruments: the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization(CALIOP), the Imaging Infrared Radiometer (IIR), and the Wide Field-of-View Camera (WFC). By mutual agreement between NASA and CNES, the CALIPSO science mission concluded on August 1, 2023.
