Description :

GMB products for the Greenland Ice Sheet derived from GRACE satellite gravimetry data by DTU Space.

Comments :

The GMB product consists of two different data sets. 1.) Mass change time series for the entire Greenland Ice Sheet and different drainage basins (2002-04 ‒ 2016-06).
2.) Gridded mass change trends over different 5-year periods between 2003 and 2016.

Basin definitions and further data descriptions can be found in the Algorithm Theoretical Baseline Document (ST-DTU-ESA-GISCCI-ATBD-001_v3.1.pdf) and the Product Specification
Document (ST-DTU-ESA-GISCCI-PSD-001_v2.3.pdf) which are provided on the project website http://esa-icesheets-greenland-cci.org.
