ECOSTRESS Tiled Surface Energy Balance Instantaneous L3 Global 70 m V002

Metadata Updated: July 3, 2024

The ECOsystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment on Space Station (ECOSTRESS) mission measures the temperature of plants to better understand how much water plants need and how they respond to stress. ECOSTRESS is attached to the International Space Station (ISS) and collects data globally between 52° N and 52° S latitudes. A map of the acquisition coverage can be found in Figure 2 on the ECOSTRESS website (https://ecostress.jpl.nasa.gov/science).

The ECOSTRESS Tiled Surface Energy Balance Instantaneous L3 Global 70 m (ECO_L3T_SEB) Version 2 data product provides estimated incoming surface radiation (Rg) and net radiation (Rn) aligned with each daytime ECOSTRESS overpass. The Rg was generated using the Forest Light Environmental Simulator (FLiES) radiative transfer model implemented in an artificial neural network using Cloud Optical Thickness (COT) and Aerosol Optical Thickness (AOT) from Goddard Earth Observing System Version 5 (GEOS-5) Forward Processing (FP) along with albedo from ECOSTRESS Tiled Ancillary NDVI and Albedo Level 2 Global 70 m (ECO_L2T_STARS(https://doi.org/10.5067/ECOSTRESS/ECO_L2T_STARS.002)) Version 2 as variables. The Rg output from the FLiES model was bias corrected to Rg from GEOS-FP. The Rn is an output from the Breathing Earth System Simulator (BESS) algorithm. This data product is tiled using a modified version of the Military Grid Reference System (MGRS(https://hls.gsfc.nasa.gov/products-description/tiling-system/)), which divides Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) zones into square tiles that are 109.8 km by 109.8 km with a 70 meter (m) spatial resolution.

The ECO_L3T_SEB Version 2 data product is provided in Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) format with each data layer distributed as a separate COG. This product contains four layers including Rg, Rn, cloud mask, and water mask.
