Summary: | This is the readme file for the ET-WB dataset described in the ESSD paper "ET-WB: water balance-based estimations of terrestrial evaporation over global land and major global basins" from Xiong et al. (2023) ET-WB dataset-The monthly water balance data from May 2002-December 2021 for the 168 river basins and global land from 23 precipitation, 29 runoff, and 7 terrestrial water storage changes datasets. The five dimensions (236*169*23*7*29) of the matrix represent the time, regions, precipitation, terrestrial water storage changes, and runoff datasets used respectively. ET-WB is distributed in three kind of formats: Mat (ET-WB.mat), NetCDF (ET_WB.nc), and Shapefile (ET_WB.shp) (only for the ensemble median value). All the formats share the same definitions of dimensions (as below), except for the ArcGIS shapefile that is provided for individual regions (168 river basins and global land excluding Antarctic and Greenland). File shapefile.rar is the geospatial database of the study area that can be opened in ArcGIS software. Please find more details in the Readme file. We re-formatted the NC file and updated the Readme file in this new version 1.2. |
