Ensemble Mean Reanalysis Soil Temperature Dataset at 0.75 degree latitude/longitude resolution (60 South to 90 North), 1982 - 2018.

This dataset accompanies Herrington, T., Fletcher, C. and Kropp, H. (in Review). The Cryosphere. It is a 0.75 degree ensemble mean soil temperature of 6 reanalysis and LDAS products (based on CFSR, ERA5, ERA5-Land, ERA-Interim, FLDAS, and MERRA2), averaged over the near surface (0 - 30 centimeter, cm) and at depth (30 cm - 300 cm), between 1982-2018. All reanalysis products were remapped using a conservative remapping technique to a resolution of 0.75 degree latitude and longitude, based on the CFSR land-mask. The ensemble mean is calculated as a simple arithmetic mean of all available products at each timestep and grid cell that include valid soil temperature measurements.
