Abstract Version History:9 June 2020:Release of Version 0002. This is an update of Version 0001 of the same data set. All changes and updates are documented in the changelog available via the data download section. Previously released versions of this data set are available at ftp://isdcftp.gfz-potsdam.de/grace/GravIS/GFZ/Level-3/TWS/old_versions. --- GRACE/GRACE-FO Level-3 product based on GFZ RL06 Level-2B products (Dahle & Murböck, 2019) representing Terrestrial Water Storage (TWS) anomalies provided at 1° latitude-longitude grids as defined over all continental regions except Greenland and Antarctica. The TWS anomaly grids are provided in NetCDF format divided into yearly batches. The files each contain four different variables:1) 'tws': gravity-based TWS2) 'std_tws': gravity-based TWS uncertainties3) 'leakage': spatial leakage contained in TWS4) 'model_atmosphere': background model atmospheric massThese Level-3 products are visualized at GFZ's web portal GravIS (http://gravis.gfz-potsdam.de).
