We are in the process of migrating all NASA Earth science data sites into Earthdata from now until end of 2026. Not all NASA Earth science data and resources will appear here until then. Thank you for your patience as we make this transition.

Global Surface Emissivity Spectral Atlas
The Global Surface Emissivity Spectral Atlas (GSESA) database contains global, monthly climatology infrared emissivity functional Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF) scores in 0.25 x 0.25 latitude-longitude resolution. An eigenvector file and a reader file allow customers to produce emissivity spectra.
The emissivity functional EOF scores were developed using the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) instrument on the METOP-A, METOP-B, and METOP-C satellites for the period 2007-07-01 to 2025-01-31.
