  Conventions: Please contact Prof. James Randerson (Email: jranders@uci.edu) or Dr. Mingquan Mu (mmu@uci.edu) for any question

  source_file: This product is generated from monthly climatology MODIS total leaf area index observations

  title: derived MODIS total leaf area index in 0.5x0.5

  Approach: I simply read this variable from original hdf file, and save the data in NetCDF format.

  Temporal resolution: monthly

  General information: This product was derived from MODIS Climatology Leaf Area Index (LAI) from NCAR group.

  Spatial resolution: 0.5x0.5 degree
