    • MODIS/Terra Global Annual 0.01Deg CMG Snow Cover Climatology V001

    Metadata Updated: April 10, 2025

    This data set presents new global snow cover classification regimes derived from the MODIS Terra cloud gap-filled NDSI data (MOD10A1F), elevation, and temperature climatology inputs. The six data granules are available as NetCDF (.nc) files, with each containing a unique snow cover classification spanning 2001 to 2023. The six classifications included in this data set are: (1) snow class climatology (SSC), (2) core snow season length (CSS), (3) snow cover duration (SCD), (4) full snow season length (FSS), (5) snow persistence (SP), and (6) snow season persistence (SSP).
