Monthly SSEBop Landsat 30-meter actual evapotranspiration in the Milk River basin (U.S. and Canada) for the growing season (April - October) from 1985-2023

March 17, 2025
Monthly actual ET (ETa) data estimated for the growing season (April - October) at 30-meter resolution with the Operational Simplified Surface Energy Balance (SSEBop) model (version 2.6) using satellite imagery obtained from Landsat 4, 5, 7, 8, and 9, and reference evapotranspiration obtained from the North America Land Data Assimilation 2 (NLDAS2) product for the Milk River basin, from 1985-2023. These data were collected to investigate the feasibility of incorporating remotely sensed evapotranspiration into an international water apportionment process between the U.S. and Canada.
