The "Minimum greenness onset - Second growing cycle" (Onset_Greenness_Minimum_2) is one of the 19 Science Dataset (SDS) layers generated by the VIIRS/NPP Land Surface Phenology (VNP22Q2) product and represents the date at which canopy greenness reaches a minimum (dormancy onset, end of growing season, or end of fall). The following calculation has been used to scale the data according to the VIIRS Global Land Surface Phenology Product user guide: Scaled Data = Unscaled data – (given year-2000)*366 The VNP22Q2 dataset provides yearly land surface phenology data for the period from 2013 to present. The VNP22Q2 product generates phenological metrics of individual vegetation growing cycles on the vegetated land surface with a spatial resolution of 500m at global level between 60°S to 80°N. It is a level 3 product and follows the structure and file format of the high level global VIIRS data.
