  • The Evaporation (E) data component (dekadal, in mm/day) is the actual evaporation of the soil surface. The value of each pixel represents the average daily actual evaporation for that specific dekad. The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.

  • The long-term NDVI quality layer is produced as a summary of the quality for the entire time period (2009 to date). Pixel values indicate the percentage of good NDVI observations over the entire time period. The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.

  • The actual EvapoTranspiration and Interception (ETIa) is the sum of the soil evaporation (E), canopy transpiration (T), and evaporation from rainfall intercepted by leaves (I). The value of each pixel represents the average daily ETIa in a given dekad. The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.

  • The quality layer gives an indication on the quality of the Land Surface Temperature (LST) input data. It shows the time between the date of the data file and the earlier remote sensing observation on which the data is based. The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.

  • Total Biomass Production (TBP) is defined as the sum of the above-ground dry matter produced during the course of the growing season. The seasonal value represents the total accumulated biomass during one growing season, from start of season (SOS) to end of season (EOS). A pixel value of -9997 denotes \"out of season\". The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.

  • The Evaporation (E) data component is the actual evaporation of the soil surface. The value of each pixel represents the total annual evaporation for that specific year. The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.

  • Phenology indicates the cycle or season of a crop and, in this case, is defined by the dekad (D) corresponding to the start, maximum and end of the growing season. This information can be derived from satellite-based vegetation index time series. Phenology is delivered for a maximum of two growing seasons annually. The phenology for one growing season is therefore delivered as three raster files. The first raster indicates the Start of Season (SOS), the second the Maximum of Season (MOS) and the third represents the End of Season (EOS). With a maximum of 2 growing seasons annually, a full year is described by 6 raster files. The pixel values of the phenology data components are expressed in dekad numbers. The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.

  • Net Primary Production (NPP) is a fundamental characteristic of an ecosystem, expressing the conversion of carbon dioxide into biomass driven by photosynthesis. The pixel value represents the NPP for that specific month. The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.

  • Interception is the process where rainfall is captured by the leaves. Part of this captured rainfall will evaporate again. The Interception (I) data component represents the evaporation of intercepted rainfall from the vegetation canopy. The value of each pixel represents the total annual interception for that specific year. The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.

  • Net Primary Production (NPP) is a fundamental characteristic of an ecosystem, expressing the conversion of carbon dioxide into biomass driven by photosynthesis. The pixel value represents the mean daily NPP for that specific dekad. The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.
