Dear all,

I’ve noticed that different resolution of static data can be found on the WPS V4 and V5 Geographical Static Data Downloads Page, such as lai_modis_10m/lai_modis_30s and greenfrac_fpar_modis/greenfrac_fpar_modis_5m. It seems that the greenfrac data has not been modified in the new WRFV4.0, is it?
Does anyone have details of the static data of the LAI, greenfrac and FPAR data?

Thanks
 
Hi,
I'm not sure what V5 you're referring to in your question. Perhaps you meant to say between V3 and V4?

There were no new static data added between V3 and V4 for lai, greenfrac, or greenfrac_fpar. The only modifications made were to add the 5 arc-minute resolution data for both lai_modis and greenfrac_fpar_modis, and to now set the default for greenfrac to simply use the greenfrac_fpar_modis for the full mandatory fields static data downloads
 
Hi,

Sorry for the mistake. I meant to say the difference between V3 and V4.

Do you know the refercences of the 5 arc-minute resolution data for both lai_modis and greenfrac_fpar_modis?

Thanks
