Land Surface Atmospheric Boundary Interaction Product L3 V1(LANDMET)

This product is a multi-variate data compilation that reconciles the variation scales of these multiple measurements from varies resources, merges and maps them into a comprehensive description of the near-surface atmospheric properties together with the land surface property variations on diurnal-to-decadal time scales. Many of these data products, especially those based on surface measurements, are spatially and/or temporally sparse or incomplete in coverage, so procedures were developed to fill missing values.

The data product is comprised of a sequence of daily global files, where quantities are mapped into 1.0-degree equivalent equal-area grid, with time sampling is reported at daily or 3-hourly intervals. The time period overlap among the products covers 10 years from 1998 to 2007.
