Crop Specific Landsat Derived Reference Evapotranspiration, Evaporative Fraction, and Actual Evapotranspiration for 2016 in the California Central Valley
This dataset contains Landsat-derived images of Evaporative Fraction (ETf), Reference Evapotranspiration (ETo), and Actual Evapotranspiration (ETa) over a portion of California’s Central Valley for 15 dates in 2016. Each of the 15 images used in this study had three corresponding Tif files representing ETf, ETo, and ETa. Data used in this project was sourced from Landsat 8 Surface Reflectance Tier 1 images processed in Google Earth Engine (GEE). These images contain five visible and near-infrared (VNIR) bands and two short-wave infrared (SWIR) bands processed to orthorectified surface reflectance, and two thermal infrared (TIR) bands processed to orthorectified brightness temperature. To determine thermal properties of images to aid in ET calculation, the TIR Band 10 (B10) containing brightness temperature was chosen to determine Land Surface Temperature (LST).
