Bias-corrected MODIS Re

Description

Bias-corrected monthly-mean liquid cloud effective radius (Re) from Terra's Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) for January and July, 2001-2008. Dataset includes the original MODIS Re 2.1, 1.6 and 3.7 channel retrievals after quality control procedures (in microns), upper and lower bound estimates of bias-corrected Re 2.1, 1.6 and 3.7 (in microns), the upper bound estimates of mean MODIS Re bias (in microns) and relative bias (in %), and the standard error of the upper bound estimates of Re (in microns). All in 2.5 degree latitude/longitude resolution. Added Re 2.1 July upper bound correction factors at 2.5 degree latitude resolution
