MUSES Fraction of Absorbed Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FAPAR) Monthly Global 0.05º Geographic Grid Since 1981
Creators
Description
The MUltiscale Satellite remotE Sensing (MUSES) product suite includes products with different spatial and temporal resolutions for parameters such as Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Near-Infrared Reflectance of Vegetation (NIRv), Leaf Area Index (LAI), Fraction of Absorbed Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FAPAR), Fractional Vegetation Coverage (FVC), Gross Primary Production (GPP), Net Primary Production (NPP). For more information about the MUSES products, please refer to this website (https://muses.bnu.edu.cn/).
This dataset is the MUSES global FAPAR product at 0.05º spatial resolution and monthly temporal resolution. The MUSES FAPAR product is provided on Geographic grid and spans from 1981 to 2019 (continuously updated). It was generated from the MUSES LAI product at 0.05º resolution and other ancillary information using the complement to unity of the transmittance of PAR through the entire canopy (Xiao et al., 2015). The MUSES FAPAR values are the instantaneous values at 10:30 am local time, close approximation of daily average PAPAR values, and they are physically consistent with the corresponding MUSES LAI values. The MUSES FAPAR product is spatially complete and temporally continuous.
