Bescription

BESSv2 includes 1982-2019 data of

- Net radiation

- Gross Primary Productivity

- Terrestrial Ecosystem Respiration

- Net Ecosystem Exchange

- Evapotranspiration

Data description:

- Global daily sum 0.05 degree resolution land-atmosphere fluxes Data files are orgnized in form of year/day of globe, and file format is NetCDF4. Supporting software include Ncview, Panoply and ncdump. Matlab users can use ncread to access data. Data are saved in integer 16 data type with filled values of -9999. To convert digital numbers to actual flux, a scaling factor of 0.01 needs to be multiplied.

- Global monthly mean 0.05 degree resolution land-atmosphere fluxes Data files are orgnized in form of year/month of globe, and file format is NetCDF4. Supporting software include Ncview, Panoply and ncdump. Matlab users can use ncread to access data. Data are saved in integer 16 data type with filled values of -9999. To convert digital numbers to actual flux, a scaling factor of 0.01 needs to be multiplied.
