Crop productivity and evapotranspiration indicators from 2000 to present derived from satellite observations

Crop produtivity indicators for four crops: weath, maize, soybean, rice. High grid resolution 0.1ºx0.1º. For regional scale anaysis.
The evapotranspiration indicators provide the actual and potential vegetation and soil evapotranspiration. This is the sum of water vapor fluxes from soil evaporation, wet canopy evaporation and plant transpiration at the dry canopy surface. The product provides insight into regional and interannual variability in vegetation water use (actual and potential) and water stress. It can be used as an indicator to determine the impact of water stress on crops and vegetation in general. The evapotranspiration indicators are not suitable for field-scale analysis.
