CRU Monthly Average Climate Time Series (1901 - 2014): Mapped climate data with global extent at 30 arcminute resolution

A time series of monthly average climate maps from 1901 - 2014 which describe mean maximum temperature, mean minimum temperature and total precipitation. Data are mapped at 30 arcminute resolution (0.5 degree) and cover the entire extent of the globe. These maps were originally created by the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) at the University of East Anglia

本数据集为1901年至2014年的月度平均气候图集时间序列，涵盖平均最高气温、平均最低气温及总降水量三类核心气候要素。该数据集以30弧分（0.5度）的分辨率进行空间制图，覆盖全球全域范围。此类图集最初由东英吉利大学气候研究单元（Climatic Research Unit, CRU）编制完成。
