CHSSDR-High Resolution (10km) Daily Surface Solar Diffuse Radiation Dataset in China during 1950-2020

This dataset of China's surface solar diffuse radiation is constructed by using the integrated model (generalized additive model, GAM). The reanalysis data deried from the ERA5 (European Center for medium range weather forecasts reanalysis) and the MERRA-2 (the modern era retrospective analysis for research and applications version 2) are used as the input parameters for the integrated model. This dataset has a daily average temporal resolution and a spatial resolution of 10km (0.1 degree), covering the whole area of China. The accuracy has been verified by using the surface diffuse solar radiation observation data at 17 stations of the China Meteorological Administration. Considering the large volume of this dataset, we only uploaded the CHSSDR data during 2010/1-2010/12. For complete data series during 1951-2020, please contact us via email ([e-mail]).
