If your coordinate is in North America, the Daymet dataset https://daymet.ornl.gov/ provides gridded estimates of shortwave radiation; defined as: Incident shortwave radiation flux density in watts per square meter, taken as an average over the daylight period of the day for the time period 1980 - p...

The ORNL DAAC recently added a new learning resource to its suite of GEDI tutorials; Accessing GEDI L4A Dataset with NASA OPeNDAP in the Cloud . GEDI_image_Forum.png This Notebook demonstrates how to directly access and subset the Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) L4A Footprint Level Ab...

All Daymet Version 4 https://daymet.ornl.gov/ collections have been been updated to include calendar year 2021. Daymet provides continuous gridded estimates of daily weather by interpolating and extrapolating ground-based observations through statistical modeling techniques. Daymet surface weather v...

@gcaria, @ORNL - shresthar is working with the GEDI Science Team to investigate your question. A response is forthcoming.

@gcaria We have our GEDI subject matter expert working on your question. They will respond soon.

The GEDI Science Team has confirmed that GEDI L4A, Version 2 files are affected by an issue that results in incorrect estimates of the aboveground biomass density (AGBD) estimates generated using algorithm setting group 10. AGBD estimates based on other algorithm setting groups are not affected. An ...

Hello GCMD - tstevens , Here is an improved SIF definition for your review. Solar-Induced Chlorophyll Fluorescence (SIF) is an emission of light in the 650–850 nm spectral range from the excited state of the chlorophyll-a pigment after absorption of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). As this...
