The Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-E/Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-2 (AMSR-E/AMSR2) Unified "Brightness Temperature for Sea Ice (89H GHz)" layer displays sea ice brightness temperatures (TBs) in Kelvin at the Polar regions for the 89 GHz horizontal (H) polarization. Brightness temperature data are particularly useful for sea ice studies because of the relatively high contrast in emissivities between open water and sea ice.

The Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) instrument is a conically scanning passive microwave radiometer sensing microwave radiation at 12 channels and 6 frequencies ranging from 6.9 to 89 GHz on board the Global Change Observation Mission – Water 1 (GCOM-W1) satellite. This product uses the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) AMSR2 Level-1R input brightness temperatures that are calibrated (unified) across the JAXA AMSR-E and AMSR2 Level-1R products. The imagery resolution is 2 km and sensor resolution is 6.25 km. The temporal resolution is daily.

### AMSR2 Sea Ice Concentration, 12 km | 25 km
Temporal coverage: 13 January 2016 - present

The Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) "Sea Ice Concentration, 12 km | 25 km" layer displays the percent of sea ice concentration in the Polar regions at a 12.5 km and 25 km resolution.

Sea ice concentration describes the relative amount of area covered by ice, compared to some reference area and usually reported as a percentage. The relative area is a 12.5 km x 12.5 km swath or 25 km x 25 km swath.

Should these subtitles be "AMSRU2" instead of "AMSR2"?

No - it's confusing, but correct.
