Short summary
This study presents a climate data record (CDR) of atmospheric column water vapor and sea surface temperature using over two decades of stable-orbit satellite-based passive microwave imagery observations. The evaluation results show that the CDR has long-term consistency and continuity, and is more accurate than other similar products in climate covariability, suggesting that the CDR is suitable for climate change research and for constraining climate model simulations.
