Climatologies at high resolution for the earth’s land surface areas

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

High-resolution information on climatic conditions is essential to many applications in environmental and ecological sciences.

Description

Here we present the CHELSA (Climatologies at high resolution for the earth’s land surface areas) data of downscaled temperature and precipitation to a high resolution of 30 arc sec. The temperature algorithm is based on statistical downscaling of atmospheric temperatures.

The precipitation algorithm incorporates orographic predictors including wind fields, valley exposition, and boundary layer height, with a subsequent bias correction.   CHELSA data published in EnviDat includes the deprecated version 1.2 (originally published under 10.5061/dryad.kd1d4). Please use the current 2.1 version. __Paper Citation:__ > _Karger DN. et al.
