Only those GPP or net photosynthesis values are used where i) the cloud flag indicates either clear sky or assumed clear sky, where the MODLAND quality is good and where the confidence flag suggests best quality or good quality data. The confidence flag is provided as a grid-cell mean rounded value with fractions of the five original flags being provided for convenience. Cloud conditions are included in form of the primary cloud flag and the fraction this primary cloud flag occupies among the valid 500 m sinusoidal grid grid cells. Two separate layers of the number of valid grid cells of the 500 m sinusoidal grid are given, one is for the geophysical data and one is for the flags.</p>\n\n<p><strong>TableOfContents:</strong> grid cell mean Gross_Primary_Production (GPP); grid cell mean Net Photosynthesis; GPP standard deviation over grid cell; Net Photosynthesis standard deviation over grid cell; number of used GPP or net photosynthesis values per grid cell; number of used confidence and quality flag values per grid cell; grid cell mean confidence flag; fraction of confidence flag 0 in grid cell; fraction of confidence flag 1 in grid cell; fraction of confidence flag 2 in grid cell; fraction of confidence flag 3 in grid cell; fraction of confidence flag 4 in grid cell; primary cloud flag; primary cloud flag fraction</p>\n\n<p><strong>Technical Info:</strong> dimension: 720 columns x 360 rows x unlimited; temporalExtent_startDate: 2000-02-18; temporalExtent_endDate: 2019-08-13; temporalResolution: 8-daily; spatialResolution: 0.5; spatialResolutionUnit: degrees; horizontalResolutionXdirection: 0.5; horizontalResolutionXdirectionUnit: degrees; horizontalResolutionYdirection: 0.5; horizontalResolutionYdirectionUnit: degrees; verticalResolution: none; verticalResolutionUnit: none; verticalStart: none; verticalEnd: none; instrumentName: MODerate Resolution Spectroradiometer (MODIS); instrumentType: visible_to_infrared_spectroradiometer; instrumentLocation: Earth Observation Satellite (EOS) Terra; instrumentProvider: NOAA/NASA&nbsp;</p>\n\n<p><strong>Methods:</strong> [1] Running, S.
