Data Information

  Title:
derived MODIS ET in 0.5x0.5

  Source_file:
This product is generated from monthly MODIS ET in 0.5x0.5 observations

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

  Creation_date:
Fri May 16 15:29:34 PDT 2014

  Approach:
I used gdal tool to convert the original tif file to netcdf file. Meanwhile I also converted the original unit to the standard one (Kg/m2/mon --> Kg/m2/s) and saved the final file in netcdf format. Derived Data Code: http://redwood.ess.uci.edu/mingquan/www/ILAMB/Download/CODES/CODES/subroutines/convert/convert-et-modis.ncl

  Temporal resolution:
monthly

  General information:
This product was derived from MODIS MOD16A2 monthly 0.5 degree CMG dataset.

  Spatial resolution:
0.5x0.5 degree
