The text files in this directory contain information on the spatial gradient of sigma-0 over Greenland from ERS measurements. Each file is created from six months of data centered at the beginning of the indicated year. For example, 'ERS_sigo_gradient_1993.txt' is created from data spanning Oct. 1992 to March 1993. The columns in each file represent the following information: Column 1: assigned index (lexicographic pixel number) Column 2: pixel Latitude (deg) Column 3: pixel Longitude (deg) Column 4: x pixel index for Lambertian Projection (8.9 km per pixel) Column 5: y pixel index Column 6: Sigma-0 gradient in dB/km Column 7: Gradient direction in radians relative to north
