Data Announcement

Data set update: MEaSUREs Northern Hemisphere Polar EASE-Grid 2.0 Daily 6 km Land Freeze/Thaw Status from AMSRE and AMSR2, Version 1

The MEaSUREs Northern Hemisphere Polar EASE-Grid 2.0 Daily 6 km Land Freeze/Thaw Status from AMSRE and AMSR2, Version 1 data set, accessible from the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC), has been updated. The daily binary files from 01 January 2017 to 31 December 2017 have been replaced with updated versions due to the discovery of bad PER FT values in the original files. The issue appears to be isolated to files from March to December, but the whole year has been replaced as a precaution. If you downloaded any binary files for 2017, we recommend downloading the updated files.

This data set is part of the NASA Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) program. It consists of a Northern Hemisphere daily landscape Freeze/Thaw status at 6 km resolution.
