The dataset covers the time period from 2002-08-01 to 2015-06-30. MYD11CM1N The dataset contains global monthly night-time land surface temperature averaged within 1 by 1 degree grid cells. The source for the data is MODIS/Aqua MYD11C3 Collection 005 product (MODIS/Aqua Monthly mean land surface temperature at 0.05 degree spatial resolution). The dataset covers the time period from 2002-08-01 to 2015-06-30. MYDVI The global monthly gridded MODIS vegetation indices product is derived from the standard 0.05 CMG MODIS Aqua Vegetation Indices Monthly product MYD13C2 (Huete et al, 2002) collection-5. The product is generated for Northern Eurasia Earth Science Partnership Initiative (NEESPI) program in supporting researches on the surface processes and climate modeling. The vegetation indices product is generated at 1x1 degree spatial resolution starting from July 2002. MOD11CM1D The dataset contains global monthly day-time land surface temperature averaged within 1 by 1 degree grid cells. The source for the data is MODIS/Terra MOD11C3 Collection 005 product (MODIS/Terra Monthly mean land surface temperature at 0.05 degree spatial resolution). The dataset covers the time period from 2000-03-01 to 2015-06-30. MOD11CM1N The dataset contains global monthly night-time land surface temperature averaged within 1 by 1 degree grid cells.

The dataset covers the time period from 2000-03-01 to 2015-06-30. MODVI The global monthly gridded MODIS vegetation indices product is derived from the standard 0.05 CMG MODIS Terra Vegetation Indices Monthly product MOD13C2 (Huete et al, 2002) collection-5. The product is generated for Northern Eurasia Earth Science Partnership Initiative (NEESPI) program in supporting researches on the surface processes and climate modeling. The vegetation indices product is generated at 1x1 degree spatial resolution starting from 2000. NHICEM This product is monthly Ice Cover Statistics. The dataset was prepared by Dr. Peter Romanov at Cooperative Institute for Climate Studies(CICS) of the University of Maryland for Northern Eurasia Earth Science Partnership Initiative (NEESPI) program. The product includes the monthly ice statistics (frequency of occurrence) for Northern Hemisphere at 1x1 degree spatial resolution. The dataset covers the time period starting January 2000 to November 2014. The data was derived from daily ice cover charts produced at NOAA/NESDIS within Interactive Multisensor Ice Mapping System (IMS). NHSNOWM This product is Snow Cover Statistics. The dataset was prepared by Dr. Peter Romanov at Cooperative Institute for Climate Studies(CICS) of the University of Maryland for Northern Eurasia Earth Science Partnership Initiative (NEESPI) program. The product includes the monthly snow statistics (frequency of occurrence) for Northern Hemisphere at 1x1 degree spatial resolution. The dataset covers the time period from January 2000 to November 2014. Monthly data were derived from daily snow cover charts produced at NOAA/NESDIS within Interactive Multisensor Ice Mapping System (IMS).
