Ebony State Primary and Secondary (NDVI) Monthly Prevalence Weather Dataset (2010-2018)

The weather data was collected primarily from Nigerian metrological Agency (NiMet) records from 2010-2018, while normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) data was generated through remote application of sentinel-2 and both data was deployed to evaluate and monitor the mean temperature, relative humidity, precipitation growth rate of maize and rice. Specifically circular rice production assumption was examined by obtained values of NDVI in previous years and subsequent years.
Note: The NDVI data was outsource using European Senitel-2, the data cannot be obtained from NiMet at the time of the study, however, can be made available upon request. Also there exist little discrepancy between NiMET data and Senitel-2 imagery at high spatial resolution values. To reduce possible flawed data, average value of both were used.

本研究的气象数据主要取自尼日利亚气象署（Nigerian Meteorological Agency, NiMet）2010至2018年的观测记录；归一化植被指数（Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, NDVI）数据则通过哨兵二号（Sentinel-2）遥感手段生成。上述两类数据均被用于评估与监测玉米、水稻种植相关的平均气温、相对湿度、降水量及生长速率。具体而言，本研究通过对比历年及后续年份的NDVI数值，验证了循环式水稻种植相关假设。

备注：由于研究期间无法从NiMet获取NDVI数据，本研究通过欧洲哨兵二号遥感获取此类数据，该数据可应要求提供。此外，在高空间分辨率场景下，NiMet观测数据与哨兵二号影像之间存在细微差异。为降低无效数据带来的分析偏差，本研究采用两类数据的平均值进行后续处理。
