In the near future the Montana Climate Office (MCO) is planning to provide climate summaries for geographic regions within Montana. Local governments and primary watersheds are two areas of interest the MCO will focus on. Each datasets we author is identified as being in one of the following stages of development:
- [proposed] dataset for future consideration
- [in development] datasets we are currently working on or plan to work on over the next few months
- [pre-release] a prototype of a dataset that was previously in development
- [in review] a dataset that has been released for peer review
- [production] a peer-reviewed dataset that has been accepted as a community asset
- [in development] Depature of greenness from the long-period average for each county in Montana at a resolution of about approximately 247 acres (1 square kilometer). Indicates whether the vegetation greenness at a particular location is typical, or whether the vegetation is more or less green.
- [in development] Evapotranspiration and departure of evapotranspiration from long-period average for each county in Montana at a resolution of approximately 247 acres (1 square kilometer). A measure of evaporation from the ground or vegetated surfaces combined with plant transpiration.
- [in development] Depature of greenness from the long-period average for each reservation in Montana at a resolution of about approximately 247 acres (1 square kilometer). Indicates whether the vegetation greenness at a particular location is typical, or whether the vegetation is more or less green.
- [in development] Evapotranspiration and departure of evapotranspiration from long-period average for each reservation in Montana at a resolution of approximately 247 acres (1 square kilometer). A measure of evaporation from the ground or vegetated surfaces combined with plant transpiration.
- [in development] Departure of greenness from the long-period average for each primary watershed in Montana at a resolution of about approximately 247 acres (1 square kilometer). Indicates whether the vegetation greenness at a particular location is typical, or whether the vegetation is more or less green.
