Long-term MODIS LST day-time and night-time temperatures, sd and differences at 1 km based on the 2000–2017 time series

Layers include: Land Surface Temperature daytime monthly median value 2000–2017, Land Surface Temperature daytime monthly sd value 2000–2017, Land Surface Temperature daytime monthly day-night difference 2000–2017. Derived using the data.table package and quantile function in R. For more info about the MODIS LST product see: https://lpdaac.usgs.gov/dataset_discovery/modis/modis_products_table/mod11a2_v006. Antartica is not included.

All files internally compressed using "COMPRESS=DEFLATE" creation option in GDAL. File naming convention:

• clm = theme: climate,
• lst = variable: land surface temperature,
• mod11a2.oct.day = determination method: MOD11A2 product, day time values for October,
• d = median value / sd = standard deviation / u.975 = aggregation/statistics method: 97.5% probability upper quantile,
• 1km = spatial resolution / block support: 1 km,
• s0..0cm = vertical reference: land surface,
• 2000..2017 = time reference: from 2000 to 2017,
• v1.0 = version number: 1.0,
