ERA5 - 24km - Daily¶
Description¶
ECMWF's Copernicus Climate Change Service produces the (ERA5) which is a 30+ year global climate reanalysis dataset. Reanalysis combines model data with observations from across the world into a globally complete and consistent dataset. ERA5 replaces its predecessor, the ERA-Interim reanalysis. Note that the dataset used here is a merger of the Google Earth Engine dataset (up to 7/9/2020) and data to real-time ingested by Climate Engine.
