Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) Long-Term Means

Climatologies for each month and field have been produced. All available months were used. An attempt has been made to correct for inconsistencies introduced into the data record (e.g., by the failure of scanners), and this should be kept in mind when using the climatological data.
