Fluxes

Water, Energy, and Carbon with Artificial Neural Networks (WECANN): A statistically-based estimate of global surface turbulent fluxes using solar-induced fluorescence.

WECANN is a monthly product, at 0.5-degree resolution, starting in 2007. It typically outperforms other global estimates.

Isohydricity Index Based on Vegetation Optical Depth

This dataset represents microwave vegetation optical depth-based calculations of ecosystem scale isohydricity. It is kindly hosted by my colleague Alexandra Konings

Global Change Biology

Reconstructed Solar Induced Fluorescence (RSIF)

A new MODIS-based product of vegetation productivity based on machine learning, with GOME-2 Solar Induced Fluorescence as a training dataset. The data shows very good interannual variability compared to FLUXNET GPP.

The data is available here
