Data Information

Title:: derived GBAF in 0.5x0.5

Source_file:: This product is generated from monthly Global Biosphere Amtospher Flux (GBAF) observations

Conventions:: Please contact Prof. James Randerson (Email: jranders@uci.edu) or Dr. Mingquan Mu (mmu@uci.edu) for any question

Creation_date:: Tue Jul 28 15:54:11 PDT 2015

Approach:: I read this variable from data file, and then save the data in NetCDF format by each month and each year. Meanwhile, I also converted the unit from MJoule*m-2*d-1 to Watt/m2.

Temporal resolution:: monthly

General information:: This product was derived from Monthly estimates of global biosphere-atmosphere fluxes from Biogeochemistry group at Max Planck Institute in Jena, Germany.

Spatial resolution:: 0.5x0.5 degree

Derived data code:: http://redwood.ess.uci.edu/mingquan/www/ILAMB/Download/CODES/CODES/subroutines/convert/convert-sh-GBAF.ncl
