Global EASE-Grid 8-day Blended SSM/I and MODIS Snow Cover, Version 1
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR and NASA Data Portal — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.5067/kiggfnvrox9v
This data set comprises global, 8-day Snow-Covered Area (SCA) and Snow Water Equivalent (SWE) data from 2000 through 2008.
Description
Global SWE data are derived from the Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) and are enhanced with MODIS/Terra Snow Cover 8-Day Level 3 Global 0.05 degree Climate Modeling Grid (CMG) data. Global data are gridded to the Northern and Southern 25 km Equal-Area Scalable Earth Grids (EASE-Grids).
These data are suitable for continental-scale time-series studies of snow cover and snow water equivalent.
