Climatologies at high resolution for the earth's land surface areas (Version 1.0)
CHELSA_v1.0 ( http://chelsa-climate.org/ ) is a high resolution (30 arc sec, ~1 km) climate data set for the earth land surface areas. Version 1.0 is a first release. It includes monthly and annual mean temperature and precipitation patterns for the time period 1979-2013. CHELSA_v1 is based on a quasi-mechanistical statistical downscaling of the ERA interim global circulation model
( http://www.ecmwf.int/en/research/climate-reanalysis/era-interim ) with a GPCC ( https://www.dwd.de/EN/ourservices/gpcc/gpcc.html ) and GHCN ( https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/ghcnm/ ) bias correction.
Specifications:
High resolution (30 arcsec, ~1 km)
Precipitation & Temperature
Monthly coverage 1979 - 2013
Incorporation of topoclimate (e.g. orographic rainfall & wind fields). Downscaled ERA-interim model. Allows calculation of derived parameters based on monthly values such as length of dry periods etc.
