Combined ASTER and MODIS Emissivity database over Land (CAMEL) Uncertainty Climatology Monthly Global 0.05Deg V003
The NASA Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments ([MEaSUREs](https://earthdata.nasa.gov/about/competitive-programs/measures)) Combined Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Emissivity for Land (CAMEL) data suite has been expanded to include a monthly global uncertainty climatology product (CAM5K30UCCLIM). The product is provided at 0.05 degree (~5 kilometer) resolution. The 13 hinge-point uncertainty climatology is computed by taking an average over each available month from 2003 through 2021 (19 years) and includes three independent components of variability: temporal, spatial, and algorithm. Each measure of uncertainty climatology is provided for all 13 hinge points of emissivity and each latitude-longitude point. Additional details regarding the methodology are available in the User Guide and Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document (ATBD). Corresponding emissivity values can be found in the [CAM5K30EMCLIM](https://doi.org/10.5067/MEaSUREs/LSTE/CAM5K30EMCLIM.003) data product.Provided in the CAM5K30UCCLIM product are variables for algorithm uncertainty, spatial uncertainty, temporal uncertainty, total uncertainty, latitude, longitude, spectral wavelength, and total uncertainty quality flag information.
