This data set has information on temperature of water at the bottom of inland water bodies; thickness of ice on inland water bodies (lakes, reservoirs and rivers) and coastal waters; temperature of the uppermost surface of ice on inland water bodies (lakes, reservoirs, rivers) and coastal waters; the mean temperature of total water column in inland water bodies (lakes, reservoirs and rivers) and coastal waters; Amount of water in the vegetation canopy and/or in a thin layer on the soil. It represents the amount of rain intercepted by foliage, and water from dew; Volume of water in soil layer (0 - 289 cm) of the ECMWF Integrated Forecasting System; The amount of evaporation from bare soil at the top of the land surface; surface runoff
