  Title:

derived GLEAM ET in 0.5x0.5

  Source_file:

This product is generated from monthly GLEAM ET in 0.25x0.25 observations

  Conventions:

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

  Creation_date:

Mon Jun 30 15:54:17 PDT 2014

  Approach:

I simply read et from the raw data files. Meanwhile I converted the original unit to the standard one (mm/day --> Kg/m2/s), binned the original 0.25 degree to the final 0.5 degree resolution and also converted the daily to the monthly, and saved the final file in netcdf format by the month and the year. Derived Data Code: http://redwood.ess.uci.edu/mingquan/www/ILAMB/Download/CODES/CODES/subroutines/convert/convert-et-gleam.ncl

  Temporal resolution:

monthly

  General information:

This product was derived from GLEAM V2A daily 0.25 degree dataset.

  Spatial resolution:

0.5x0.5 degree
