- <p>This Product User Guide (PUG) contains a description of the Lakes_cci Climate Research Data Package (CRDP) version 3.0.0, produced as part of the European Space Agency (ESA) Climate Change Initiative. The documentation set accompanying CRDP v3.0.0 will be valid for any other v3.x.y products unless an updated document version is published. The PUG provides users with practical information regarding the content and recommended use of the Lakes Essential Climate Variable (ECV) products included in this dataset.</p> <p>The overarching objective of the Lakes_cci project is to produce and validate a consistent data set of the variables grouped under the Lakes ECV. This includes aiming for the longest period of combined satellite observations by operating processing chains for suitable satellite imagery, ultimately featuring in a sustainable production system. This PUG details the contents, format, and standards applied to the files that make up the dataset. It also introduces some software tools that can help new users explore the data contained in the CRDP.</p> <p>The Lakes ECV covers: Lake Water Level, Lake Water Extent, Lake Surface Water temperature, Lake Ice Cover, Lake Ice Thickness, Lake Water-Leaving Reflectance and Lake Storage Change. The Lakes_cci dataset includes several additional products (both physical and biogeochemical indicators) to aid studies into climate change and its effects on lake systems, either from inspecting the observation data are through their ingestion into numerical models.</p>
