7. DATASET OVERVIEW

7.1 Abstract

The S14 retrospecitive meteorological forcing dataset (S14FD) offers daily data of 11 climatic variables over the globe from 1958 to 2013. The data over the sea and Antarctica are not bias-corrected (i.e., the raw data of the JRA-55 reanalysis were used), whereas those over the land are bias-corrected. Variables include daily mean 2m air temperature (tave2m, °C), daily maximum 2m air temperature (tmax2m, °C), daily minimum 2m air temperature (tmin2m, °C), daily total precipitation (precsfc, mm d-1), daily mean downward shortwave radiation flux (dswrfsfc, W m-2), daily mean downward longwave radiation flux (dlwrfsfc, W m-2), daily mean 2m relative humidity (rh2m, %), daily mean 2m specific humidity (spfh2m, kg kg-1), daily mean 2m vapor pressure (vap2m, hPa), daily mean 10m wind speed (wind10m, m s-1) and daily mean surface pressure (pressfc, hPa).
