Abstract
This paper describes the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) data products being made available to the community. The Science Team used ten validation criteria to judge the acceptability of the data for archival. We list these criteria and present uncertainty estimates based on them for four typical data products. A brief description of the radiation budget for April 1985 from the combined data of ERBE and NOAA-9 concludes this paper.
