This dataset provides agroclimatic indicators used to characterise plant-climate interactions for global agriculture. Agroclimatic indicators are useful in conveying climate variability and change in the terms that are meaningful to the agricultural sector. The objective of this dataset is to provide these indicators at a global scale in an easily accessible and usable format for further downstream analysis and the forcing of agricultural impact models.

ERA5-Land is a reanalysis dataset providing a consistent view of the evolution of land variables over several decades at an enhanced resolution compared to the
Fifth Generation of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Reanalysis (ERA5).
Produced by replaying only the land component of the ECMWF ERA5 climate reanalysis, it benefits from the same physical data-assimilation framework but runs offline at
higher spatial detail (9 km grid) to deliver richer land-surface information.

The Burned Area products provide global information of total burned area (BA) at pixel and grid scale. The BA is identified with the date of first detection of the burned signal in the case of the pixel product, and with the total BA per grid cell in the case of the grid product. The products were obtained through the analysis of reflectance changes from medium resolution sensors (Terra MODIS, Sentinel-3 OLCI), supported by the use of MODIS thermal information.

Fire radiative power and active fire pixels from 2020 to present derived from satellite observations
This dataset provides global information on the timing and location of Active Fires (AF) burning on Earth's surface during satellite overpasses, and also records their Fire Radiative Power (FRP) as a measure of strength. FRP relates to a fire's combustion rate, and the rate at which smoke containing greenhouse gases, reactive gases and particular matter is released into the atmosphere. The vast majority of detected hotspots are related to landscape fires, however other high temperature targets such as active volcanoes and gas flares are also present in the data.
