TELLUS GLDAS LAND WATER CONTENT ASCII

The land water content contained in this dataset were generated from The Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS). GLDAS outputs land water content by using numerous land surface models and data assimilation. For more information on GLDAS please visit http://gcmd.nasa.gov/records/GCMD_GES_DISC_GLDAS_NOAH10SUBP_3H_V001.html. The data are available on monthly 1 degree grids in ASCII format. This total water content is directly comparable to what GRACE measures over land. The Greenland values should NOT be used, the model is not valid there.
