McDonnell (Eds.), John Wiley & Sons Ltd. doi: 10.1002/0470848944.hsa059a.The MEaSUREs Global Record of Daily Landscape Freeze/Thaw Status, Version 3 data set is a global record of the daily freeze/thaw (F/T) status of the landscape derived from satellite observations of radiometric brightness temperatures. Two F/T records are provided: one derived from Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR), Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I), and Special Sensor Microwave Imager/Sounder (SSMIS) data for the years 1979 to 2012; and a second derived from Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer - Earth Observing System (AMSR-E) data for the years 2002 to 2011.VIEW RELATED INFORMATIONhttps://doi.org/10.5067/MEASURES/CRYOSPHERE/nsidc-0477.003DocumentationPROJECT HOME PAGEhttp://freezethaw.ntsg.umt.eduFreeze/Thaw Earth System Data Record @ UMCEOS IDN DIFVERSION 9.92014-08-062023-05-23NSIDCVersion SummaryChanges for this Version 3 release include: extending the F/T record through 2012; correcting land/ocean mask and F/T misclassification errors over some ocean dominated grid cells; revising the methodology used to produce the data quality annual maps.NSIDCMinor VersionNSIDCLevel of ServiceNo Data AccessNSIDCFull Dataset CitationKim, Y., J.
