An Uncertainty Quantified Fundamental Climate Data Record for Microwave Humidity Sounders
To date, there is no long-term, stable, and uncertainty-quantified dataset of upper tropospheric humidity (UTH) that can be used for climate research. As intermediate step towards the overall goal of constructing such a climate data record (CDR) of UTH ...

Evaluation of the land surface reflectance fundamental climate data record [PDF]
The land surface reflectance is a fundamental climate data record at the basis of the derivation of other climate data records (Albedo, LAI/Fpar, Vegetation indices) and has been recognized as a key parameter in the understanding of the land-surface-climate processes.

Radiance Uncertainty Characterisation to Facilitate Climate Data Record Creation
The uncertainty in a climate data records (CDRs) derived from Earth observations in part derives from the propagated uncertainty in the radiance record (the fundamental climate data record, FCDR) from which the geophysical estimates in the CDR are ...

crestr: an R package to perform probabilistic climate reconstructions from palaeoecological datasets [PDF]
Statistical climate reconstruction techniques are fundamental tools to study past climate variability from fossil proxy data. In particular, the methods based on probability density functions (or PDFs) can be used in various environments and with ...

Applying Metrological Techniques to Satellite Fundamental Climate Data Records [PDF]
Quantifying long-term environmental variability, including climatic trends, requires decadal-scale time series of observations. The reliability of such trend analysis depends on the long-term stability of the data record, and understanding the sources of uncertainty in historic, current and future sensors.
