Description
This dataset includes the second half of the 8-day climatology fields (DOY 185-361) covering years 2003-2019 for the global land surface (90N - 60S) at 500-m spatial resolution as described in Borak et al. (2024).
The z0s fields are formatted as 36000 lines by 86400 pixels of 32-bit floating-point binary data, with the first observation corresponding to the upper-left corner of the field. Projection is sinusoidal, and conforms to the same parameters as Collection 6+ 500-m MODIS products (radius of sphere = 6371007.181 m). Units of z0s are meters, with 255.0 referring to no-data.
