MODIS LST monthly daytime and nighttime low (0.05), median (0.50) and high (0.95) temperatures for year 2012 at 1-km

Layers include: Land Surface Temperature daytime low (0.05), median (0.50) and high (0.95) temperatures for the year 2012. 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. Antarctica 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.daytime = determination method: MOD11A2 product, day time values,
• d = median value / sd = standard deviation / u.95 = aggregation/statistics method: 95% probability upper quantile,
• 1km = spatial resolution / block support: 1 km,
• s0..0cm = vertical reference: land surface,
• 2000..2020 = time reference: from 2000 to 2020,
• v1.1 = version number: 1.1,
