Cycle quality | Data quality for this cycle is nominal. |
Missing data | This cycle has no missing pass, but several passes are partly missing: - Due to missing TM (which had not been filled by PLTM GAP files), pass 0089 is partly missing (on 2013-10-13 from 07:58:24 to 08:01:35) over North Atlantic with 7.7% of missing ocean data. - Due to modification of onboard radiometer database values, pass 0352 is partly missing (on 2013-10-22 from 12:13:04 to 12:15:45) over Indian Ocean with 9.1% of missing ocean data.
