Layers include: Land Surface Temperature daytime monthly median value 2000–2017, Land Surface Temperature daytime monthly sd value 2000–2017, Land Surface Temperature daytime monthly day-night difference 2000–2017. Derived using the data.table package and quantile function in R. For more info about the MODIS LST product see: https://lpdaac.usgs.gov/dataset_discovery/modis/modis_products_table/mod11a2_v006.
