Dataset for "Effects of weather and climate on fluctuations of grain prices in southwestern Bohemia, 1725–1824 CE"

This deposit contains three .xlsx files.

The file „01_prices_Sušice_1725-1824“ contains two sheets with mean annual prices (in Lower Austrian měřice) of four cereals (wheat, rye, barley and oats) in Sušice for the period 1725–1824. On the first sheet are compiled series, on the second detrended series (using high-pass filter).

The file „02_monthly_prices_1725-1738“ contains four sheets with mean monthly prices (in Lower Austrian měřice) of four cereals in Sušice from July 1725 to July 1738 (July 1737 is missing). Sheets represent individual cereals – wheat, rye, barley and oats.

The file „03_climate_char_1725-1824“ contains two sheets with mean seasonal (DJF, MAM and JJA) temperature, precipitation and scPDSI expressed in deviations relative to the 1961–1990 reference period. On the first sheet are original series, on the second detrended series (using high-pass filter). The original series are reconstructed temperatures for central Europe (Dobrovolný et al., 2010), reconstructed precipitation for the Czech Lands (Dobrovolný et al., 2015) and both of them were used for creation of scPDSI series (Brázdil et al., 2016).
