GCIP/EAOP-98 Surface: Hourly Precipitation Composite. Version 1.0

The Hourly Precipitation Composite was formed from several data sources (i.e., National Climatic Data Center hourly precipitation data, National Centers for Environmental Prediction hourly precipitation, W.K. Kellogg Biological Station (KELLOGG) hourly precipitation, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory (CMDL) WITN meteorological tower hourly precipitation, South East Michigan Council of Governments (SEMCOG) hourly precipitation, USDA Agricultural Research Service (ARS) NAEW hourly precipitation data (Coshocton), Integrated Flood Observing and Warning System (IFLOWS) hourly precipitation data, and the precipitation data extracted from the GCIP LSA-E EAOP-98 Hourly Surface Composite). Data from these sources were quality controlled and merged to form this precipitation composite.

本逐小时降水合成数据集（Hourly Precipitation Composite）由多源数据融合构建而成，所用数据源包括：美国国家气候数据中心（National Climatic Data Center）逐小时降水数据、美国国家环境预报中心（National Centers for Environmental Prediction）逐小时降水数据、W.K.凯洛格生物站（W.K. Kellogg Biological Station, KELLOGG）逐小时降水数据、美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA）气候监测与诊断实验室（Climate Monitoring and Diagnostics Laboratory, CMDL）WITN气象塔逐小时降水数据、密歇根东南部政府间理事会（South East Michigan Council of Governments, SEMCOG）逐小时降水数据、美国农业部农业研究服务局（USDA Agricultural Research Service, ARS）NAEW逐小时降水数据（科斯霍克顿站）、集成洪水观测与预警系统（Integrated Flood Observing and Warning System, IFLOWS）逐小时降水数据，以及提取自GCIP LSA-E EAOP-98逐小时地面合成数据集的降水数据。上述所有源数据均经过质量控制与融合处理，最终形成本降水合成数据集。
