PPDIST, global 0.1° daily and 3-hourly precipitation probability distribution climatologies for 1979–2018

The Precipitation Probability DISTribution (PPDIST) dataset represents a collection of global high-resolution (0.1°) observation-based climatologies (1979–2018) of the occurrence and peak intensity of precipitation at daily and 3-hourly time scales.
