L2 Daily Solar-Induced Fluorescence (SIF) from MetOp-A GOME-2, 2007-2018, V2

Metadata Updated: September 4, 2025

This dataset provides Level 2 (L2) Solar-Induced Fluorescence (SIF) of chlorophyll estimates derived from the Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment 2 (GOME-2) instrument on the European Meteorological Satellite (EUMETSAT) MetOp-A with ~0.5 nm spectral resolution and wavelengths between 734 and 758 nm. GOME-2 covers global land on an orbital basis at a resolution of approximately 40 km x 80 km (before 15 July 2013) or 40 km x 40 km (since 15 July 2013). Data are provided for the period from 2007-02-01 to 2018-02-01. Each file contains daily raw and bias-adjusted solar-induced fluorescence, quality control information, and ancillary data. SIF measurements can provide information on vegetation's functional status, including light-use efficiency and global primary productivity, which can be used for global carbon cycle modeling and agricultural applications. The GOME-2 SIF product is inherently noisy due to low signal levels and has undergone only a limited amount of validation. The data are provided in netCDF format.
