Description

There are three global 0.5 degree Vcmax datasets at growth temperature included:
1) Vcmax from GOME-2 SIF: GOME2_Vcmax_Tg_05deg.tif
2) Vcmax from TROPOMI SIF + LCC: TROPOMI_Vmax_Tg_mean.mat
3) Vcmax from global leaf chlorophyll content (LCC) map (Croft et al., 2020, RSE): LCC_Vcmax_Tg_mean.mat

The geographic reference is the same for all three datasets, conforming to that in the geotiff file. 

For any questions on the dataset, please contact:
