Description
The NASA Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) Combined Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Emissivity for Land (CAMEL) data suite has been expanded to include a monthly global emissivity climatology product (CAM5K30EMCLIM). This 0.05 degree (~5 kilometer) resolution product represents the mean emissivity from 2003 through 2021 (19 years). Additional details regarding the methodology are available in the User Guide and Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document (ATBD).
Variables provided in the CAM5K30EMCLIM product include latitude, longitude, wavelength, number of samples used to calculate climatology, CAMEL quality flag, snow fraction derived from MODIS (MOD10), and CAMEL Emissivity.
