GPM GROUND VALIDATION MICRO RAIN RADAR (MRR) NASA IFLOODS V1

The GPM Ground Validation Micro Rain Radar (MRR) NASA IFloodS dataset was collected by a Micro Rain Radar (MRR), which is a vertically pointing Doppler radar which provided measurements of vertical velocity, drop size distribution, rainfall rate, attenuation, liquid water content, and reflectivity factor during the Iowa Flood Study (IFloodS), which took place in eastern Iowa during the spring of 2013. The goals of the campaign were to collect detailed measurements of precipitation at the Earth's surface using ground instruments and advanced weather radars and, simultaneously, collect data from satellites passing overhead. A total of four MRRs were deployed, each adjacent to a two-dimensional video disdrometer (2DVD). Each MRR-2DVD site had one or more Autonomous Parsivel2 Unit (APU) with tipping bucket rain gauges either collocated or within 4-8 km away. The dataset covers the period of April 11, 2013 through June 16, 2013, but each MRR deployed may not contain data during the entirety of this period.

Headwall Hyperspectral Reflectance LTER Cedar Creek Minnesota Multi-Year 1 mm

The Headwall Hyperspectral Reflectance data are for the Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) at Cedar Creek Ecosystem Science Reserve (CCESR), Minnesota (HWHYPCCMN1MM). The reflectance products are at 1 millimeter (mm) spatial resolution in the 400 to 1,000 nanometer spectral range. This dataset can be used to understand the optical diversity-biodiversity relationship and investigate the spatial sensitivity of the relationship at local scales. A Headwall Series E imaging spectrometer was mounted on a tram system to collect designated plots for the biodiversity (BioDIV) experiment at the LTER Cedar Creek site. The imaging spectrometer, located 3 meters above the ground surface, obtained 1 mm ground pixel size of hyperspectral field image cubes that are among the finest spatial resolution available. The fine-scale images were acquired at a prairie grassland ecosystem during June/July 2014 and July 2015. Provided in the HWHYPCCMN1MM product are 920 to 924 hyperspectral bands in an Environment for Visualizing Images (ENVI) format.

High Resolution Altitude Corrected Precipitation based on TMPA and other sources L4 Monthly 1 km x 1 km V1 (HRAC_Precip) at GES DISC

This is a dataset that enhances the TMPA monthly product (3B43) in its accuracy and spatial resolution, in hydrometeorological applications. About 9,200 gauge measurement are used to compare with the 3B43 product at 0.25° x 0.25° spatial resolution across the CONUS. Observed is a strong relationship between the bias and land surface elevation, in which 3B43 underestimates the true precipitation at the elevations above 1,500 m amsl. Satellite data is resampled to elevation data at ~1km grid size and applied a correction function to reduce bias in the data. Accordingly, a High-Resolution Altitude-Corrected product is constructed, based on 3B43 and covering the entire CONUS at 1-km resolution. This product is verified against 9,200 gauges across the country. The results showed a substantial improvement in the satellite-gauge data accuracy as well as spatial resolution.

High Resolution Land Cover-Specific Solar-Induced Fluorescence, Midwestern USA, 2018

This dataset provides estimated solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) of specific vegetation types and total SIF under clear-sky and real/cloudy conditions at a resolution of 4 km for the Midwest USA. The estimates are 8-day averaged daily means over the 2018 crop growing season for the time period 2018-05-01 to 2018-09-29. SIF of a specific vegetation type (i.e., corn, soybean, grass/pasture, forest) was expressed as the product of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), the fraction of photosynthetically active radiation absorbed by the canopy (fPAR), and canopy SIF yield (SIFyield) for each vegetation type. Uncertainty of each variable was also calculated and is provided. These components of the SIF model were derived using a TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) dataset, the USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service Cropland Data Layer, and the MODIS MCD15A2H 8-day 500 m fPAR product. These data could be used to improve estimates of vegetation productivity and vegetation stress.
