Terrestrial Water Budget Data Archive

The dataset authors have created a terrestrial water budget data archive on a 1-degree grid. They identified 13332 global stations with complete records and created 30-year (1950-1979) climatological means for each month of the year for air temperature, precipitation, evaporation, soil moisture, and snow cover. These monthly climatological means were then interpolated to the 1-degree gridpoints. This data set contains both the gridpoint individual station data.

本数据集的构建者创建了一套基于1度网格的陆地水量平衡(terrestrial water budget)数据档案。研究团队筛选出13332条记录完整的全球气象台站，针对每年的12个月份，分别计算得到1950年至1979年共30年的气候平均值，涵盖气温、降水、蒸发、土壤湿度与积雪覆盖等要素。随后，将上述逐月气候平均值插值至各1度网格点。本数据集同时包含各网格点对应的单站原始数据。
