AB: The Solar Radiation and Climate Experiment (SORCE) was launched into Earth orbit in January 2003. About a month after launch, the four instruments aboard SORCE began making scientific measurements. The instruments are the Total Irradiance Monitor (TIM), the Solar Stellar Irradiance Comparison Experiment (SOLSTICE), the Spectral Irradiance Monitor (SIM), and the XUV Photometer System (XPS). TIM measures the total solar irradiance, while the other three instruments measure the solar spectral irradiance from x-rays, ultraviolet, visible and the near infrared spectral regions. This presentation describes the SORCE standard science data products and data support provided by the NASA Goddard Earth Sciences Distributed Active Archive Center (GES DAAC). There are four level 3 standard products: daily averaged solar spectral irradiance (SOR3SSID), 6-hourly averaged solar spectral irradiance (SOR3SSI6), daily averaged total solar irradiance (SOR3TSID) and 6-hourly averaged total solar irradiance (SOR3TSI6). All of the SORCE derived product files are generated using the Hierarchical Data Format version 5 (HDF5), and are available to the public free of charge.
