Data Information

  Approach: I read variables latent heat (le) and sensible heat (sh) from monthly original data files from 1982 until 2008, then I calculated annual mean for both variables, and I further calculated evaporative fraction (le/(le+sh)) using annual mean for both le and sh I saved the data in NetCDF format.

  Temporal resolution: climatology

  General information: This product was derived originally from Monthly estimates of global biosphere-atmosphere fluxes from Biogeochemistry group at Max Planck Institute in Jena, Germany.

  Spatial resolution: 0.5x0.5 degree

  Derived data code: http://redwood.ess.uci.edu/mingquan/www/ILAMB/Download/CODES/CODES/subroutines/convert/convert-EvapFrac-GBAF.ncl
