Process Title:

Data: Variables from HadUK-Grid over UK for monthly, seasonal or annual data

Abstract:

Download data from HadUK-Grid gridded observations over the UK based on observations from weather stations. These data cover each year since observations became available (up to the most recent complete calendar year), can be averaged monthly, seasonally or annually.

User Guide:

Generates a subset of data in either CSV or netCDF format, for a chosen variable from the HadUK-Grid gridded observations, giving monthly, seasonal or annual averages over the UK. Absolute values are available for a given time period and location (e.g. a regional average). More information about the data can be found on the HadUK-Grid website. These data are based on observations from weather stations, with more details about quality control available on the overview webpage and other method details available on the methods webpage. Results are based on monthly rainfall and temperature, available for range of years (up to the most recent complete calendar year). Note that data are available for the UK, but not Channel Islands. These data are the most recent version of HadUK-Grid only; for previous version, please see the CEDA Archive.
